First off I like always I want to thank the the publisher Hachette Audio , Forever , the author Liz Parker , the narrators and to NetGalley for the invite to read and to Hachette Audio for sending me a copy of it to listen to . haven't done so then you need to do so, because of how it's set up with five different narrators it makes the experience so much better ,an  that's coming from someone who doesn't listen to audio books that much. Thanks to these five narrators and how their set up instead of making me feel like I was  listen to an audiobook,  they made me feel like I was listen to an old time radio show or even setting in on a play , which is great because once I started listen I couldn't put it down if I wanted to. The story as well as the magic and the characters came to life. ,  which  give the whimsical and dark feeling that the book had  a life of its own .,And let's not forget family drama, mystery, secrets, and even a sprinkle of romance that played out throughout the book

Three generations of witches must discover where their magic went wrong as secrets resurface that could solve a twenty-year-old mystery in this riveting debut, perfect for fans of Practical Magic and Midnight at the Blackbird Cafe.

There's something magical about Yarrow, Kentucky. The three empathic witches of the Haywood family are known for their shadow garden—from strawberries that taste like chocolate to cherry tomatoes with hints of basil and oregano. Their magic can cure any heartache, and the fruits of their garden bring a special quality to the local bourbon distillery. On one day every year, a shot of Bonner bourbon will make your worst memory disappear.

But twenty years ago, the town gave up more than one memory for the year; they forgot an entire summer. One person died. One person disappeared. And no one has any idea why.

As secrets from that fateful summer start to come to light, there must be a reckoning between the rival Haywood and Bonner families. But the only clue Irene Haywood has is in her tea leaves: a stranger’s arrival will bring either love or betrayal…

Liz Parker loves gardening, a good cup of tea, and the kind of story that sinks it hooks into you and refuses to let go.

She grew up with her time split between Tennessee and northern Nevada, giving her a love of the kind of magic you can only find on a hot summer night when the fireflies float drunk on humidity or beneath a cloudless desert sky lit by stars and possibility.
​
Today, Liz lives in California with her husband, dog, and too many houseplants to name (though she could if you asked).
