If you love urban fantasy, paranormal, or any variety of romance, this is the place for you.
Information about Coastal Magic is on their website, along with registration, hotel, and travel details. You can spend the weekend with us, or just come for the book sale/signing on Saturday. I’ll be there with over 50 other authors. Either way, I’d love to see you! Come take a bite out of the beach with us!! Feb 22-25, 2018
