When Josh inherits an estate in England, he is shocked to find out that one of his tenants hasn't paid the rent since the 1700s, and when he looks for the house, it doesn't seem to exist. No one in the small town of Good Winter seems to know where it is. No one except for Essie Winterscale and the other witches that live with her in the ever-changing magical house. But even as Essie tries to keep Josh from looking too closely at their magical home, a long-buried secret seems to put him under her spell. This book was not what I expected, but it was a fun read! It had the sweet and magical romance plotline but also a mystery story that causes them to travel through time and hide from witch hunters. The first half of the story was a little slow, and I wasn't sure where the plotline was going, but the second half really picks up and creates the fun romance I was looking for! 

Thank you to Netgalley, One More Chapter, and Kate Johnson for an ARC in exchange for my honest review! It was a lighthearted and magical read!
