The Pumpkin Bride

'Filled with so much autumnal coziness that it made me want to run off and become a pumpkin farmer (ideally with the help of a sexy orc), this was the perfect fall read!' -Laurie Gilmore, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Pumpkin Spice Cafe

Shrek meets The Princess Bride in this cozy, low-stakes romantic fantasy. The Pumpkin Bride delivers all the autumnal feels, a dash of spice, and a guaranteed HEA!

Some curses just need a cozy fire, a little magic, and a second chance to break them.

A cursed knight.
Sir Bram Duncan was once a knight of legend in Harvest Hollow-until the whim of a jealous prince and the trickery of an autumn sprite turned him into the hulking orc Jask Bone-Cracker, and tethered him to Grimroot Farm. For three long, lonely years, he's hidden his monstrous form and the truth of what happened the night he lost everything, including his true love, Princess Marigold.

A runaway princess.
Fleeing an arranged marriage to the vain and intolerable Prince Crispin, Marigold finds a safe haven when she stumbles across Jask's charmed pumpkin farm deep in the forest. Sensing glimmers of gentleness-and a surprising talent for baking-beneath the grumpy orc's imposing exterior, she begins to feel a familiar longing she believed dead when her Bram disappeared.

One true love.
As magic stirs and pies are baked, truths about Jask's curse begin to surface. But curses don't break easily, and wronged princes don't capitulate. As their peace is threatened, Jask and Marigold must decide: cling to the lies that protect them, or risk everything for a love that could set them free.

As a small business, we believe it is our responsibility to always have sustainability in mind.

The joy of being small is that every decision is our own to make - what materials go into our products, what packaging we choose, what businesses we buy from and who we choose to stock.

We can’t afford a lot of the volume discounts that mean these choices don’t impact us financially, but this is part of why we price ourselves the way we do, as it’s the right thing to do.
