Since arriving on Magic Island, newbie witch Wren Winters just can’t seem to catch a break. Fresh out of the hospital following her near-miss with the wrong end of a wand, she returns home to discover that her magical status is in question—again—her new boss’s favorite snack is blood pudding (hold the pudding), and she’s the only witch in history to be allergic to her own familiar. When the next assignment for her gossip column takes her to the Snow Bunny Fashion Show to learn the real story behind the long-simmering feud between the show’s lead designer and the island’s most popular yeti model, Wren is determined to prove her worth as a reporter… and then keep a low profile as she awaits her fate before the High Court. But it seems the island has other plans.
