The Candlemaker's Curse

S.J. Ashbourne, 2026

A feared enchantress. A cursed seaside village. A lighthouse keeper who refuses to let her disappear. For fifteen years, Seraphine Voss served a tyrant king as his most dangerous curse-maker — feared across the northern kingdoms for the magic she wielded and the debts she collected. Now the king is dead, the court has fallen, and Seraphine wants only one thing: to be forgotten. Hidden in the fog-soaked coastal village of Cray's Mouth, she purchases a crumbling chandlery and quietly begins making candles for the locals. But her magic refuses to stay buried. Every candle she pours carries an impossible scent — courage, forgiveness, grief, home — exactly what the customer needs most. The villagers are wary of the quiet newcomer with ink-stained hands and too-watchful eyes. Especially the lighthouse keeper next door: a broad-shouldered, permanently glaring man who seems determined to dislike her. And yet every morning, he keeps the candle she leaves on his windowsill. But when one of Seraphine's old curses begins unraveling beneath the village — poisoning fishing nets, haunting dreams, and threatening the people slowly becoming her own — she faces an impossible choice: Remain hidden. Or reveal the monster she used to be. Perfect for readers who love cozy fantasy romance, magical shops, found family, cottage core settings, emotionally mature characters, and slow-burn love stories filled with longing, healing, and quiet magic. The Candlemaker's Curse is a cozy fantasy romance about redemption, staying when it would be easier to run, and learning that being loved is sometimes the most frightening magic of all.
