Brewing Trouble

When their beloved Aunt Clara dies and leaves her magical Portland coffee shop to three estranged sisters in equal shares, Wren Calloway has one plan: sell the building, divide the money, and go back to her carefully managed life in Seattle. She doesn't count on the regulars. She doesn't count on the shop itself - warm, willful, and apparently full of opinions about who belongs there. And she definitely doesn't count on Declan Shore, the charming urban developer with thirty days to file an assessment that could demolish everything.

The Gilded Cup has been the heart of Portland's supernatural community for thirty years. Every drink on the menu carries a quiet magic - clarity, courage, hope, honesty - brewed with intention by a woman who spent decades protecting something ancient sleeping beneath the city. Now that protection falls to three sisters who share a bloodline, a gift, and almost nothing else.

Wren makes food that carries feeling. June reads the emotional history of every room she enters. Pepper hears what people actually need instead of what they say. Separately, they are three witches with complicated lives. Together, they are something the magical world hasn't seen in a century.

If they can stop arguing long enough to figure that out.

Brewing Trouble is a warm, witchy romance about sisterhood, slow-burn love, and the magic of a place that knows you before you know yourself.
