About this book

Doli Butterbuckle leads a quiet, contented life in Adenashire, finding solace in her tea magic and the familiar rhythms of her community. Though she has long struggled to meet the rigid expectations of her traditional dwarven family, she is satisfied with her small, cozy world—until the unexpected inheritance of a dragon egg upends her stability. To navigate the complexities of raising a creature that defies conventional control, Doli seeks the expertise of Sarson, a stoic and scholarly gargoyle librarian.

As they pour over ancient texts, a tentative bond blossoms between the sun-drenched, people-pleasing dwarf and the enigmatic, well-read guardian of lore. Their growing connection is soon tested by a looming, sinister conspiracy that threatens the peace of their realm. With her dragon causing chaos, her family demanding conformity, and a grander mystery pulling her into the fray, Doli must step out of the shadows of her past.

She finds that the strength required to protect those she loves and the magic needed to embrace her authentic self are far greater than she ever dared to imagine. In a world of gaslamp wonder, Doli discovers that the most enchanting path is the one she carves for herself.

Adorable and Cozy 🥰🥰😍

"☕️ Bookish Thoughts Omg this was such an adorable and cozy read! I actually liked it even more than the first in the series! Doli Butterbuckle (how freaking cute is that name?!) completely stole my heart. I just wanted to be her bestie. While there is a sweet romance in the story, I was here for Doli’s personal growth. She’s a people pleaser through and through, and her relationship with her parents? Oof. Boundaries are not her strong suit. Watching her finally speak up and stand her ground was so satisfying! Also, she was the best guardian to Evvy 😍😍😍😍 This is one of those books I know I’ll come back to when I need a comfort read. ✨ Favorite Quote What if she accidentally revealed to her friends that her personality wasn’t always a ray of sunshine? That she had bad days too… and a past she’d rather forget. 🧡 What You Can Expect: • Cozy fantasy • Baby dragon 😍 • Sunshine dwarf FMC • Gargoyle MMC • Found family • Tea magic ☕️ 📖 Final Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 📅 Pub Date: June 3, 2025 Thank you to Poisoned Pen Press and NetGalley for the advanced copy. All thoughts are my own! ["

Excellent cozy fantasy! A joy to read

"I absolutely loved the first book and was eager to read the second in the series and it did not disappoint! I love how Doli gets her own story, and the continued growth of all the characters. It is a dynamic group of characters and with such an engaging story, I did not want to put this down. ["

Pallet Cleanser

"I didn’t like this book as much as the first, but it was a great pallet cleanser between heavy series. It’s very light with a predictable plot and reads quickly. ["
