OverviewShe defeated the Dark Lord. She conquered the Shadow Realm. Now, she just wants to deduct her cauldron as a business expense. Elara Vance is retired. Technically, she's the legendary Sun-Breaker who saved the realm from eternal darkness. But on her tax return, she's just a humble baker running The Toasted Toad in the rainy village of Moonbright. Her goals are simple: Bake excellent cinnamon rolls, pet her chaotic dungeon mimic, Barnaby, and avoid ever picking up a sword again. Her method: A little light tax fraud. (Okay, a lot of tax fraud. Dragon scale flour is expensive, and she didn't exactly get a receipt when she looted it.) Enter Crispin Thorne. He is the Royal Auditor. He has a jawline sharp enough to cut glass, a heart made of spreadsheets, and a suspicion that Elara's profit margins are statistically impossible. He hasn't come to Moonbright to buy a scone; he's come to audit her existence. But when the Mayor's prize-winning magical pumpkin is stolen days before the Harvest Festival, the Baker and the Auditor are forced into an unlikely alliance. To save her town (and keep her secrets buried), Elara must team up with the one man who can destroy her. But as they chase demons through the woods and break into manor houses, Elara realizes that the only thing more dangerous than being exposed as a high-level mage is falling for the man sent to arrest her. Can she balance the books, catch the thief, and save the festival before Crispin figures out that her ""organic sawdust"" is actually sleeping powder?
