For those who love Practical Magic or Gilmore Girls, The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic is a debut novel that focuses on the barriers we create around our hearts to protect our own magical qualities.
Sadie Revelare has always believed the pain of four heartbreaks that accompany her magic is worth the cost. But when her grandmother gets diagnosed with cancer, with just days to live, and her very first breakup, Jake McNealy, returns to the town after 10 years, her carefully planned life is thrown off by.

In the wake of news of their grandmother's imminent death Sadie's brother, who has been estranged from her, Seth returns to the town and brings with him deep secret family secrets that could split Sadie's life. Sadie's grandmother was the pillar in the clan for generations and now that she's gone, Sadie isn't sure she'll be able to keep her family, and her magical together.

As her feelings for Jake are rekindled and her grandmother is getting more and more sick, Sadie faces the last of her heartbreaks and must decide whether love is more important than the magic of it all?

People who love the magic that is The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake and the sense of community throughout The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches will be delighted by this cozy, witchy book.
