"A charming and delectably sweet debut. Mischief, friendship, and a
whole lot of heart--Love Sugar Magic has it all."** **--Zoraida
Córdova, award-winning author of the Brooklyn Brujas series.
Leonora Logroño's family owns the most beloved bakery in Rose Hill,
Texas, spending their days conjuring delicious cookies and cakes for any
occasion. And no occasion is more important than the annual Dia de los
Muertos festival.
Leo hopes that this might be the year that she gets to help prepare for
the big celebration--but, once again, she is told she's too young.
Sneaking out of school and down to the bakery, she discovers that her
mother, aunt, and four older sisters have in fact been keeping a big
secret: they're brujas--witches of Mexican ancestry--who pour a little
bit of sweet magic into everything that they bake.
Leo knows that she has magical ability as well and is more determined
than ever to join the family business--even if she can't let her mama
and hermanas know about it yet.
And when her best friend, Caroline, has a problem that needs solving,
Leo has the perfect opportunity to try out her craft. It's just one
little spell, after all...what could possibly go wrong?
Debut author Anna Meriano brings us the first book in a delightful new
series filled to the brim with amor, azúcar, y magia.
