Publisher Description
Food critic Sarah Greenberg is a normal thirty-nine-year-old content with her ordinary life. In fact, the only real excitement she has is the occasional hand she lends at her family's Chicago magic shop.
Until one day when the ordinary becomes extraordinary and a simple introduction to her boyfriend's teenage daughter unearths a family trait long dormant in Sarah.
Without even trying, she can do magic.
Her newfound, though late-blooming abilities make her part of a world she never imagined, and her family's long lineage of Magycians unravels Sarah's life.
Yet when she discovers her family's store is in danger, Sarah is forced to face an enemy more skilled, decades older, and intent on ruling the Magyckal world. Zondra Bex will not be denied. And if Sarah cannot develop her powers, then her family will pay the price.
But will embracing her newly discovered abilities eradicate everything Sarah believed herself to be?
Part rom-com, part The Dresden Files with a dash of Jewish mythology, ENCHANTING SARAH GREENBERG is a funny, fantastical look into a woman's struggle to find herself, believe in herself, and prove to everyone that she is extraordinary in her own way.
"Inglis has a light, comedic touch with this fantasy romance, Enchanting Sarah Greenberg… [The] slightly bonkers worldbuilding brings the fun without ever sacrificing genuine emotion; despite the magical backdrop, Sarah and Colin feel wonderfully grounded. Readers will be spellbound." – Publisher's Weekly
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Inglis (Girls Who Wear Glasses) has a light, comedic touch with this fantasy romance. Sarah Greenberg, 39, leads a pleasant, ordinary life: she works as a food writer, helps out at her family's Chicago magic store, and is preparing to take her relationship to the next level by meeting her boyfriend Colin's teenage daughter for the first time. Her routine is disrupted, however, when her latent magical powers bubble up, delighting her family and friends who had given up hope that "late bloomer" Sarah would ever join their ranks as a Magycian. Now Sarah must balance lessons in levitation and energy manipulation, Magycian politics, and meetings with strange new creatures with maintaining her relationship—and making sure Colin doesn't freak out too much when he meets her blue-skinned demon friend, Dave. And when her family's magic store, a source of much power, comes under threat, Sarah will do whatever it takes to save it. Iglis's slightly bonkers worldbuilding brings the fun without ever sacrificing genuine emotion; despite the magical backdrop, Sarah and Colin feel wonderfully grounded. Readers will be spellbound.
