When her father begins restoring an ancient run-down house, deep in the California woods, Melinda Richards is instantly captivated. Steeped in mystery, the grand old structure, dubbed Sotheby House, boasts a history and power that Melinda would never guess. And she's lured back time and again, especially after meeting a handsome stranger in the nearby woods.
Luke Sotheby is in trouble — in more ways than one. Not only is his magical world, Pleasantwick, under attack by dark witches, but his ancestral home, the very portal to that world, has been bought by a commoner. And worse, he's falling for the commoner's daughter.
As the magical battle spills over into the common world, the young couple begins to face dangers the likes of which neither has ever known. Lives will be lost, secrets revealed, and if Pleasantwick falls, Melinda and Luke could be separated forever.
Pleasantwick is the first book in the explosive YA contemporary fantasy duology. If you like strong heroines, sweet romance, and butt-kicking action, then you'll love M.L. Stoughton's unforgettable adventure.
