That One Small Spark

Save the witch. Free the faerie. Hope for happily ever after.

That One Small Spark is a captivating and steamy debut epic fantasy inspired by the infamous 1590s Scottish witch trials, in which a young woman's quest to save her best friend from the pyre pits her against the perils of Faerie, as she seeks out the assistance of Faerie's Queen.

Since her husband's death, Elspeth has battled to gain some semblance of independence, using her ale brewing business to support herself and her sick father. But when her lifelong friend is arrested for witchcraft, she uncovers truths that reveal the extraordinary concealed beneath her seemingly ordinary life.

To save her friend, Elspeth journeys across Faerie, confronting creatures she once thought merely myth, while coming to terms with new truths as they unspool. And with the shadowy and dangerous Law at her side, she can't deny the strange pull that draws her to him, as he proves himself to be much more than an indecently beautiful guide.

Gritty and heartfelt, That One Small Spark begins an enchanting romantasy trilogy, which weaves Scottish history and mythology into a mesmerising adventure where persistence battles powerlessness and determination vies with despair.

Strewn with danger, intrigue and betrayal, it brims with magic and discovery, as one brave woman pushes past infuriating limitations to face down every challenge, urged on by a tenacious desire to help those she loves, a sliver of dark humour, and the support of an even darker faerie by her side.

Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Carissa Broadbent and Karen Marie Moning, this romantasy series will enchant fantasy romance readers who adore escaping into books, diving into magical realms and swooning over morally grey book boyfriends.

Expect fast burn, forced proximity and delicious spice as you are swept away by this dazzlingly transportive tale of love, heartache and resilience. With a strong female main character who strives to save herself and her dark and dangerous protector who is there when she cannot, it's absorbing, addictive and will have you hooked until the very last page.

Due to the adult nature of this dark fairytale romance, its recommended reading age is 18+.

★★★★★ This book was amazing! The quick burn and the nature of their relationship flowed as nice as the plot. I ate this up and struggled to put it down when I picked it up.

★★★★★ Oh boy, where to start? I absolutely loved this book. The quick burn, the plot, the spice! I loved that the book combined folklore, fantasy and history. The world building was perfect, not so over the top that you get lost like some other fantasy books I have read. The cliffhanger ending just got me. I wish the 2nd book was already out so I could find out what happens next!
