Garden Spells, by Sarah Addison Allen, 304 pages
In this work of magical realism meets romance, Practical Magic meets Chocolat, Claire Waverley has the gift of making food that has magical effects on those who eat or imbibe them. But Claire lives a lonely life, afraid to let in love or strangers or anything that may go away. Things change when Claire's sister, the lively Sydney, returns to town with her daughter and a shady past in her wake. Both sisters are forced by circumstances to come to terms with their pasts and their futures. This is a fairly tame romance with a happy ending.
