About the Book
With her signature blend of magical and heartfelt storytelling, USA TODAY bestselling author Jennifer Moorman returns with The Charmed Library, a love letter to libraries, favorite childhood stories, and readers who have fallen for fictional heroes.
Like many public libraries, the one in Blue Sky Valley, North Carolina, is a haven for readers. But this library is unlike any other—its fictional characters can step right off the page and into real life. Assistant librarian Stella Parker doesn’t know that yet. Still grieving her father’s death and navigating a recent breakup, she feels stuck in a job she’s overqualified for and uncertain about her future.
Everything changes when Stella burns her beloved journal.
For as long as she can remember, Stella has seen words—floating, bouncing, and wiggling free from objects and people alike. Words have always given her insight into hidden emotions and untold stories. But after burning her journal, the words turn urgent, demanding, and painful.
Then Stella encounters an unexpected visitor in the library after hours: Jack Mathis, a World War II soldier and the fictional hero from her favorite book—her first crush—standing in front of her in the flesh.
As Stella uncovers the magic hidden within the library, she learns that stories come with rules, villains have consequences, and characters can only remain in the real world for fourteen days. With Jack’s time running out, Stella must face the truth that all stories must end—and magic always comes at a price.
A cozy, romantic escape, The Charmed Library is a delightful celebration of stories, love, and the power of words.
