Jane was supposed to become an archmage. Born with once-in-a-generation talent, she spent her childhood mastering impossible spells and being on track to join the handful of mages who shaped the very fate of the kingdom. Then she burned out. Now she's in a mountain village nobody from the capital ever visits, trying to turn a dusty cottage into a working bakery. As she makes new friends, masters baking, and stumbles through the beginnings of her first-ever romance, she begins to find what her all-magic life was missing. However, when the town develops problems that only magic can solve, Jane has to figure out how to make the magic and the mundane work together, or else risk abandoning some parts of her identity forever.
