Shadows and Ciders

Moonvale Matches, Book 4

By: Hailey Blackwood

Narrated by: Raquel Beattie, Dane Anderson

A faun, a mysterious stranger, and a handful of heat....

Can love survive in the shadows?

Ginger is used to being a side character in her friends' lives. She is happy with her work—she loves running the pub in Moonvale—but she's lonely. Until he arrives.

Shade has no memories. He has arrived in Moonvale, confused, knowing only one thing for certain: Ginger is his mate. The problem is...they've never actually met before. And he'll do anything to make the union a reality.

When a local competition drives the two together, and as the mystery of Shade's origin is revealed, will he be able to secure his bride, or will his intensity drive Ginger away forever?

Shadows & Ciders is the third book in a series of interconnected standalone fantasy romance novels that take place in a cozy, small town where folk of all species reside. Grab a warm cup of tea or a strawberry sage cider and dive into this world of romance, magic, and mayhem.

Contains mature themes.
