Moonlit Charm

Some shops hold more than herbs on their shelves...

When Elena Bennett abandons her soul-crushing corporate career to renovate her grandmother's long-forgotten herb shop in coastal Moon's Landing, she's searching for a fresh start. What she finds instead is a town where secrets run as deep as the roots of the ancient cypress trees lining its shores.

The Moonlit Charm isn't just a quaint storefront-it's a legacy that's been waiting for her return. As Ellie reconnects with her family's herbal knowledge, she discovers that plants respond to her touch in ways that science can't explain, and the town itself seems to welcome her like a long-lost daughter.

But Moon's Landing harbors shadows beneath its picturesque facade. When a respected scientist is found dead under suspicious circumstances, strange phenomena begin affecting the town-unexplained lights on the cliffs, unusual behavior in local wildlife, and ancient symbols appearing where they shouldn't.

As the next full moon approaches, Ellie finds herself entangled in a mystery that stretches back generations, connecting seven founding families through a pact few remember and fewer understand. Someone in town is willing to go to great lengths to prevent old secrets from surfacing-and Ellie might be next on their list.

With her uncannily perceptive Siamese cat Suki, Ellie must uncover the truth about Moon's Landing and her heritage before time runs out.

In this charming coastal town, even the walls have secrets-and some were never meant to be revealed.

This first installment in the Moonlight Mystery series blends small-town charm with magical intrigue and a touch of romance.
