Mayhem by Moonlight

In a city where magic hums beneath every cobblestone, a single tarot card can change everything...

Esme Beaufort likes her life quiet: reading tarot at The Crescent Cauldron, brewing protective teas, and attempting to keep her sharp-tongued, talking cat from scaring off customers. But when beloved local musician Leo Marchand collapses mid-song under a full moon, Esme senses something far darker than a medical emergency.

Something is wrong with his spirit.
Something bound him.
Something twisted.

And someone in the Quarter knows why.

Determined to uncover the truth, Esme finds herself tangled in a web of enchanted clues, stolen spell candles, and emotional secrets people would kill to keep buried. Her intuitive gifts, which usually guide her, begin misfiring at the worst possible moments, and every lead she follows seems to end in heartbreak.

Only Mauve, her elegant and perpetually unimpressed feline familiar, believes she's asking the right questions. Because magic, like moonlight, reveals what it wants, and hides what it must.

As Esme digs deeper into Leo's mystery, she discovers a dangerous truth: sometimes the person who loves you most can be the one who breaks you.

Atmospheric, heartfelt, and threaded with moonlit New Orleans charm, Mayhem in Moonlight is the first book in the Crescent Cauldron Cozy Mysteries, perfect for fans of witchy cozies, tarot, gentle magic, talking cats, and mysteries wrapped in emotion and intuition.

Magic leaves clues.
Love leaves shadows.
And Esme Beaufort is about to learn that every spell has a cost.
