“Fans of cozy fantasies and compelling adult women protagonists who find purpose—and fabulousness—in nature, magic, and new connections will adore the laid-back, lavender-scented vibes as Olivia goes from destitute loneliness to settling into the charming village of Rowanswood, whose scones, teas, crockery, beasts, magic, and ritual all are described with inviting relish. ”

“A cleverly rendered fantasy of unexpected reinventions”

“Wise, witty, and wonderfully magical, The Chic Crone is a sparkling fantasy romance that proves reinvention has no age limit. When poised self-help guru Olivia Furie loses everything, she stumbles into an enchanted Cornish village brimming with sassy Crones, charming creatures, and a mysterious man who keeps stirring her heart. With slow-burn romance, supernatural surprises, and a heroine coming into her power, this spellbinding tale is equal parts heart, humor, and high-stakes magic.””

“Ooh, I’ve fallen into a new world with this book and I definitely want to go back! I was absolutely impressed with how Marion pulled me into every bit of the worlds she’s created. From the cozy village of Rowanswood to the troubled land of the High Fae, the author doesn’t miss a single chance to pull you into the scene. The main characters of Olivia and Gaelin are both compelling and I liked that it wasn’t just a love at first sight kind of thing between them but rather a wary friendship/alliance that will be fun to watch in further books in the series”

“... a fabulous start to a new series, about starting over again in midlife and discovering where we belong, about feminine bonds and loyalty, and stepping into our power. It's beautifully written and wonderfully described, and the settings are delightfully vivid and well-imagined.”
