Homegrown Magic
Homegrown Magic | Rebecca Podos, Jamie Pacton
1 post | 1 read
A delightful queer romantic fantasy full of friends-to-lovers chemistry, found family, rival family drama, and cozy garden magic from two acclaimed YA authors making their debut in the adult space. Yael Clauneck is the only scion of an obscenely wealthy banking family with its fingers in every pie in the realm. They’re on the precipice of a predetermined life when they flee their own graduation party, galloping away in search of…well, they’re not sure, but maybe the chance to feel like life can still be a grand adventure. Margot Greenwillow—talented plant witch, tea lover, and greenhouse owner—has never felt further from adventure in her life. She’s been desperately trying to keep what remains of her family's magic remedies business afloat. So when her childhood friend and former crush, Yael, rides back into her life, she’s shocked. But perhaps this could be a good thing. After all, Margot could use an assistant in the greenhouses. Yael has no experience or, honestly, practical skills, but they’re delighted to accept. They can lay low for a while, flirting with Margot while they figure out what to do next. Meanwhile, Margot has plans of her own—but plans are notoriously unreliable things, unlikely to survive a swiftly blooming mutual attraction, not to mention the machinations of parents determined to get their heir back . . . no matter the cost.

Yael is trying to escape the life their parents have planned. Margot is trying to save her family‘s business. Romance blossoms. Things become more complicated w/ a lost will, disapproving parents, & a patron not willing to let go.

Adorable! I wish the world building had been stronger, & I don‘t like time skips over important plot points. But I loved the characters, the setting was lushly green & cozy, & the romance was very sweet. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
