The Door Opens

The Harvest Fair Used To Be The Best Week Of The Year

Now two villages can barely stand to share a field.

When the Gadding Goose hops in beside a regional harvest fair that has lost its spark, Etta Bellwether knows a soured celebration when she sees one. Curdled rivalries. Wounded pride. A cornucopia-charm that overflows on cue and buries the square in pumpkins. The usual.

What she cannot fix alone, she will have to fix together, which means actually letting her beloved crew help, leaning on the traveling tinker who has decided to stick around, and coaxing two stubborn villages back under one tent before the feast.

And her inn has been odd all season. Restless. Wistful, even, in a way Etta has never seen. It turns out a wandering house carries a history of her own.

Comfort Contract

Warm, Funny, Never Grim

The worst thing in this book is a square full of uninvited pumpkins. The stakes are warmth, comfort, and a valley coaxed back together.
