Wishful Thinking (The Fairy Godmother Detective Agency Book 1)

Grace Thornfield’s life falls apart on a Tuesday.Unemployed, burned out, and unsure what comes next, she’s summoned to the tiny coastal town of Willowbrook to settle her estranged grandmother’s estate. But instead of dusty heirlooms and paperwork, Grace inherits something far stranger: a magical sanctuary, a house full of secrets, and a talking cat with strong opinions.Turns out her grandmother wasn’t just the town eccentric—she was its fairy godmother. And now Grace is expected to take her place.As Grace stumbles into wish-crafting, fae politics, and the delicate art of helping people get what they truly need, she discovers a life she never knew she wanted: community, purpose, a found family—and maybe something deeper with Toby, the patient fisherman who sees more in her than she sees in herself.But magic always comes with consequences.When old threats resurface and wishes go dangerously wrong, Grace must decide what kind of fairy godmother she intends to be—one bound by duty, or one choosing connection and joy.Heartfelt, hopeful, and quietly enchanting, Wishful Thinking is a cozy contemporary fantasy about second chances, found family, and discovering the life you were meant for.
