Petals & Portals
Enchanted Realms: Crossroads Book 1
Ready to step into Hickory Hollow?
The magic is waiting.
The gate is opening.
And this is your invitation to cross over.
Magic brought her home. Love might make her stay.
Piper Wakefield hasn’t set foot in Hickory Hollow in ten years.
But when her Aunt Alice dies, Piper inherits more than a house and a struggling flower shop—she inherits a legacy of magic she never asked for.
Because Alice wasn’t just the town florist.
She was the Guardian of the Crossroads—the one who kept monsters from slipping through the veil between worlds.
And now… that responsibility belongs to Piper.
The only person willing to stand by her side?
Owen McAllister—childhood friend, longtime admirer, and the one man who’s never stopped believing she’d come home.
But Hickory Hollow isn’t as quiet as it seems.
Something is stirring along the magical highway.
A gate has opened.
And what’s coming through it could destroy everything.
To save the town—and the life she’s only just begun to rebuild—Piper must embrace her magic, trust the man who’s always loved her…
…and risk her heart in the process.
Because this time, walking away might cost her everything.

This book is a simple, clean read that perfectly mixes small-town romance with fantasy elements. The plot was simple, with our main character, Piper, returning to her hometown only to find out there is more waiting for her there than she had planned. The fantasy elements were well thought out and explained, and the questions Piper has to answer were genuinely interesting to me as a reader. The romance is cute, and it is a good plot addition rather than being overwhelming.The ending of the book felt rather rushed to me. I hadn't known what to expect at the end of the book, especially as I noticed I was nearing the end, but the ending almost felt like an afterthought. It was a bit expository, and Piper felt somewhat passive for the first time in the book with how she figured more about the role she came into. That being said I would be interested in reading the next book because there are so many questions unanswered and so many problems that I want to see how Piper goes about solving.
I enjoy reading fairytale retellings or stories inspired by fairytales and this was a great read! This is a small town romantic fantasy that I couldn’t put down and can’t wait to find out what happens next!.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Petals & Portals was a cute and cozy read with a fun mix of romance, small town vibes, and magic. I liked seeing Piper come back to Hickory Hollow and discover there was so much more to her aunt’s life and legacy than she knew. The flower shop and magical crossroads were such fun parts of the story and gave it a really charming feel.I enjoyed Piper and Owen’s relationship and the way their past connection played into their story. The characters were easy to like, and I liked the mix of everyday small town moments with the fantasy elements.Overall, this was a sweet start to the series with a cozy setting, a fun magical twist, and a romance that was enjoyable to follow.Thank you to BookSirens and Michelle for the advanced copy, this is my honest review.
Such a cute adventure. Fast paced and always on the edge of your seat. The characters are memorable and so well suited to each other. There is one character that makes you wonder. Strong mystery, fantasy, and romance. This is intoxicating and the world is small town Texas. By the end you want more and have to have the next. Waiting for more.
Even though, you finally leave that small town where everyone knows each other; something would always draw you back. Petals & Portals was a fun and humorous read. I liked how there were characters that shouldn't exist, but in Hickory Hollow, anything is possible. The pacing was so smooth that I flew right through reading it. I can't wait for the next book.
