Finding Love at the Magical Curiosity Shop is the latest novel by Jaimie Admans to be published via Boldwood Books. It’s book five in the Ever After Series.
In a shop full of stories, some magic is real.
Mickey Teasdale loves her quaint curiosity shop, where every item feels magical to her. She loves imagining the past owners of her knick-knacks and telling her made-up tales to customers, but lately, the magic has dimmed; the shop feels cluttered, and even her stories seem as worn as the items she sells.
Everything changes when the grumpiest customer Mickey’s ever met—single dad Ren Montague—walks in with his surly teen daughter, Ava. Ren hates mess and clutter and prefers order and calm, but he’ll do anything to see Ava smile. Yet, something shifts in him when he meets Mickey, who seems like she stepped out of her very own fairy tale.
When Ava discovers a secret diary, hidden from years long ago, she and Mickey believe it must have once belonged to a real-life mermaid! Ever sceptical, Ren tries to protect Ava from disappointment, but as they unravel the mystery together, something special happens…
Ren learns that happy ever afters still exist if you’re brave enough to look for them, and Mickey discovers that real-life can sometimes be way more magical than anything she could have ever imagined.
In Finding Love at the Magical Curiosity Shop, Jaimie Admans weaves a gentle and uplifting tale of rediscovery, unexpected romance, and the quiet kind of everyday magic that lives in the corners of life—if only we pause long enough to notice it.
Jaimie handles the budding romance between Mickey and Ren with a careful, authentic touch. Their chemistry develops gradually, marked by emotional vulnerability and mutual respect.
The real standout of this novel lies in its understanding of character and emotion—how grief, loneliness, and uncertainty can be soothed not by grand gestures, but by simple acts of connection and trust.
This is a story for anyone who has ever believed that the past holds secrets worth discovering, and that even the most unassuming places can bring unexpected joy. A tender, hopeful novel full of heart, whimsy, and the enduring belief that love—and magic—can still be found when you least expect them.
