Star Bright: A Witches of Cleopatra Hill Holiday Novella

For Miranda McAllister, daughter of her clan’s head witch, this holiday season is unlike any other —shimmering with the magic of Christmas, yet shadowed by her impending arranged marriage to Rafael Castillo, a man she’s never met, as dictated by a pact agreed on before she was born.

When Miranda attends a party at her friend Sabrina’s house, she meets Josh Perkins, whose easy conversation and understanding provide a glimpse into a world where choices are one’s own to make. She impulsively invites Josh to her family’s Christmas gathering, leading to a series of heartwarming and heart-wrenching events.

As Miranda stands on the brink of a life she never chose, a heart-to-heart with her mother sheds light on the complexities of arranged marriages and the unexpected paths to happiness. With each snowflake and starlit night, Miranda contemplates her future, torn between the duties of her heritage…and the yearnings of her heart.
