Overview :

Following her win at the Autumn Fest baking competition, Kaida and Eilaen embark on their next adventure: opening Kaida’s Place, the dream bakery in Kaida’s dream venue.

With Eilaen and Jareth busy ensuring the townsfolk of Smallburrow have plenty of nutrient-dense produce all winter, it’s up to Kaida and her new found construction crew of dwarves to get Kaida’s Place in tip-top shape before opening day. But what happens when she becomes quickly infatuated with their grumpy dwarf leader and decides she wants to crumble his stony exterior so she can learn more? She has to do things in the only ways she knows how—with her charm AND magically baked goodies.

Can Kaida have her cake and eat it, too? And will Tillard cause any interference to her plans?

Dusted in Snowflakes is book two in The Halflings of Smallburrow, a cozy fantasy series—a slice-of-life tale inspired by Stardew Valley, Gilmore Girls, and The Hobbit. It follows two Halflings and their found family as they navigate the simple joys and small challenges of everyday life—all while trying to dodge the shenanigans of a particularly menacing pig named Tillard.
