A bottle of pinot grigio. A laptop. A crumbling castle in the middle of the Scottish Highlands. What could go wrong?
Join us for a cozy, enchanting evening celebrating the release of Mandy Casto’s newest novel, Rendezvous at Booklore Castle!
Step into a Scottish-inspired atmosphere filled with warm candlelight, fall leaves, pumpkins, tartan accents, and a little Highland magic. Guests will enjoy light refreshments of hot apple cider or tea, along with cupcakes or cookies, while exploring an interactive take-home craft table and adding a special “kiss” to a poster-sized castle blueprint.
At approximately 6:30 p.m., gather for a special author Q&A with Mandy, followed by book signing and photo opportunities.
Your ticket includes admission, a signed paperback copy of Rendezvous at Booklore Castle, an exclusive sticker and postcard, and a take-home craft. Space is limited, so reserve your place for a magical evening celebrating books, friendship, and the launch of Mandy Casto’s newest novel!

Rendezvous at Booklore Castle is a contemporary romance nestled deep in the Scottish Highlands. It is a reverse age-gap love story featuring a grumpy innkeeper (Zach) and a cheerful American (Bethany) who just drunkenly bid on—and won!—a derelict castle in the fictional loch-side village of Lyster. This book is perfect for readers who long for some top-notch yearning or who simply want to escape to a whimsical castle surrounded by trees, hills, and Highland cows . . . and don't mind getting a little spicy with a mouthy jack-of-all-trades whose Scottish accent will make them weak at the knees.
About the Author:
Mandy Casto is a teacher-turned-indie author who crafts what her family describes as "absolute masterpieces" (and who is she to argue with such unbiased experts?) Whether she’s spinning a cozy mystery like Return to Jade Island or tugging at heartstrings in her coming-of-age romance, Retreat to Bleecker Street, Mandy writes stories that feel like home.
When she isn’t plotting her next twist, you can find Mandy traveling with her husband, snuggling her dog, or perfecting the art of "pairing a perfectly brewed cup of coffee and a rom-com" afternoon.
