Publisher Description
“This summer’s sweetest confection is J.C. Cervantes’s The Enchanted Hacienda. This book is like dipping your brain into a jar of serotonin.” —New York Times Book Review
"This is a contemporary coming-of-age story, with a sprinkling of magic, that’s one of my most anticipated reads of the year." —Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author, in Elle Magazine
When Harlow Estrada is abruptly fired from her dream job and her boyfriend proves to be a jerk, her world turns upside down. She flees New York City to the one place she can always call home—the enchanted Hacienda Estrada.
The Estrada family farm in Mexico houses an abundance of charmed flowers cultivated by Harlow’s mother, sisters, aunt, and cousins. By harnessing the magic in these flowers, they can heal hearts, erase memories, interpret dreams—but not Harlow. So when her mother and aunt give her a special task involving the family’s magic, she panics. How can she rise to the occasion when she is magicless? But maybe it’s not magic she’s missing, but belief in herself. When she finally embraces her unique gifts and opens her heart to a handsome stranger, she discovers she’s far more powerful than she imagined.
With unforeseen twists, romance, and a heavy sprinkle of magic, The Enchanted Hacienda is a captivating coming-of-age debut exploring identity, unconditional family love, and uncovering the magic within us all.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In her dazzling adult-fiction debut, YA superstar J.C. Cervantes invites us into a romantic, mystical world where enchanted flowers have the power to cast extraordinary spells. Twenty-seven-year-old Harlow seems to have it all: a dream publishing job in New York and a handsome lawyer boyfriend. When it all falls apart, Harlow impulsively decides to buy a one-way ticket to her family’s magnificent Mexican farm, where the Aztec goddess Mayahuel has gifted the women in her family magical powers. We were captivated by Harlow’s emotional journey to find her purpose, surrounded by some incredible women and a handsome visitor who may or may not be the love of her life. If you’re looking for a spellbinding novel that feels like a warm hug, look no further.
