Overview

A WITCH, A PIXIE, A SHAPESHIFTER, AND SNOW WHITE
WELCOME TO A MAGICAL PLACE BEYOND THE WOODS

From the Publisher that brought you popular short story series Song of Teeth, Children of Time, Chains of Darkness, The Splicers, The Night Sculptor, Blood Waters, Requiem for a Dream, Soulyte, and The Taken. And now, here's Tales from the Pixie Kettle and Hearth series...

Ashlynn Qardmare is a young woman who backpacks to Europe to deal with her recent break up from her live in partner for five years. She finds herself somewhere in England after two months, short of money, wet from the constant drizzle of rain, and looking for a cheap place to stay.
An old gnome (but she doesn’t know this yet) points her to the direction of a bed and breakfast located in the woods. After more than an hour of walking, she finally arrives at Pixie Kettle and Hearth, a small yet comfortable inn, where she encounters weird characters -- from a white stag who doesn’t seem to be afraid of strangers, to Iris the front desk person, to the babbler guest The Ferret Guy (‘cause he acts so nervous all the time), to the motherly Madge who runs the place.
After that, everything turns more than strange. It is, to the hungry and disillusioned Ashlynn, actually interesting. Turns out that The Ferret Guy Trevor is a shapeshifter who actually turns into a ferret, and Madge is a witch, Iris is a Pixie, and... well, she still has to learn about the white stag.
So, do you think she’ll run away screaming? Or will she stay?
Find out and download the first installment to Tales from the Pixie Kettle and Hearth series, Welcome Rugs and Faery Dust.

EXCERPT

SHE signed the book. With the final stroke of the quill, a bright blue light flared from the page with an intensity that she could not think up an excuse for.
“Just as I thought,” Madge said. “You have some magic in you.”
“What?” Ashlynn asked, this time dropping the quill.
“I didn’t think Angus would send anyone here without a lick of magic in them. Nice to know the old gnome hasn’t lost his touch.”
“Gnome?” Ashlynn asked in a still shocked tone.
“Yes, dear. One of the more urban of his kind, but he’s a gnome. But I do wonder what you are. From the way you’re reacting I would say you’re not aware yourself.”
“Maybe she’s a shifter like me,” Trevor added as he smiled at Ashlynn. “I turn into a ferret.”
Ashlynn just stood there to take this all in a moment before she went to find a chair.

About the Author

Eve Hathaway was born in Delridge, Washington, where she lived for 5 years with her parents and younger sister. For better employment opportunities, the family moved to Seattle – the city they all now call home.
As an older sister always expected to be a “good role model," Eve adapted the logical and practical perspective of an adult at a young age. At seven, she stopped hiding her loose tooth under a pillow and putting up her stocking by the window on Christmas Eve. She developed a sense of independence and responsibility quickly. But she knew no world beyond reality.
In high school, Eve’s after-school routine involved dropping by the local library and waiting for half an hour for her dad’s shift to end so they could drive home together. To kill time, instinct pushes us to grab whatever is in front of us. Eve was always surrounded by books. She wasn’t much of a reader – primarily because she only owned textbooks, which she refers to as potent sleeping pills. But after skimming a random fiction novel at the library, she was hooked. She would check out book after book almost daily and sneak a read at every opportunity. Her favorites were those which took her to new worlds and introduced her to different new species. She read them then, but writes them now.
Eve finished an Associates Degree in Elementary Education at Seattle Community College. She works part-time at a local school as a substitute teacher. At the same time, she authors paranormal romance, fantasy, urban legend, and fantasy books – inspired by both library books and the creative minds of her elementary students.
