Penner’s heartwarming Adenashire series is a feel-good adventure that travels from cold rivalry to hot cocoa and warm hearts.***Jez, a grumpy fennex, wants nothing to do with the winter games descending on Adenashire. She’d rather sleep through winter than deal with the snow, the noise, or the swarm of visitors in town. But a drunken boast lands her smack in the middle of the festivities and, even worse, fake dating her endlessly cheerful friend, Taenya, a woodland elf.Plagued by chronic fatigue and past heartbreak, Jez has long guarded her heart. Not to mention a secret she’d rather not share. Yet Taenya’s warmth and patience begin to melt her icy exterior. Together, the two women tackle challenges – from ice sculpting to scavenger hunts – and their reluctant partnership becomes something deeper, built on laughter, trust, and a shared love of cosy corners and quiet moments.With the help of her quirky friend group and the magic of a town that thrives on togetherness, Jez begins to open up – not just to the festivities but to the possibility of healing, connection, and maybe even joy.Escape to Adenashire for a cosy fantasy adventure full of the healing power of love and a healthy dose of whimsical joy.TropesCosy FantasyRomantasyFake DatingFound FamilySelf-DiscoveryLGBTQ+The Adenashire Series:A Fellowship of Bakers & MagicA Fellowship of Librarians & DragonsA Fellowship of Games & FablesA Fellowship of Curses & Cats (COMING SOON)
