A Heartfelt debut

Witch City: Salem in Love, Julia E. Christian’s debut novel, is a laugh-out-loud, slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy steeped in Salem’s spellbinding charm. With a cast of unforgettable friends, nods to the Salem Witch Trials and Pagan traditions, and heartfelt themes of found family, belonging, and self-acceptance, this feel-good romance proves that sometimes the greatest transformations happen when you stop running—and start believing.

  • “Julia E. Christian’s debut is swoon-worthy, informative, and incredibly gripping. I’m so glad I stepped outside my usual genre for this one. I’ll absolutely be keeping an eye out for her future books.”

    Maxine N.

  • “And I mean this sincerely: Hallmark, option this book immediately. I need cozy fall visuals, slow-burn chemistry, emotionally intelligent dialogue, and a montage of Liam showing Freya the quiet magic of Salem. We deserve this.”

  • “...a writer with a creative, intelligent and passionate pen.”
