A jaded woman falls for her sunshine neighbor in this cozy Christmas romance. Nora Blackburn is suspicious of everything she sees and hears. Is it fake? Is someone trying to scam her? God, it's exhausting, but she can't let down her guard again. She's tired of Christmas cheer as well. It's never been her favorite holiday, and this year, she'll have to spend it alone for the first time. Besides, Everett Sun, who lives across the hall, has more than enough Christmas spirit for both of them. When she sees an image of an elaborate snow sculpture in a Toronto park, she assumes it's AI-generated. But when more pictures of the sculpture-and others-pop up, she realizes it's real. She encounters Everett when she goes to see it in person, and together, they visit the other sculptures. Nora didn't expect to ever fall for anyone again, and she's startled by the feelings she's developing for her neighbor. Why does she find his flannel shirt and irrepressible smile so alluring? But as the city tries to solve the mystery of the whimsical sculptures, strange things begin happening with Everett, and she doesn't know if she can trust him… Magically Generated is a romance novella featuring hot buttered rum, festive snow animals, and a touch of magic.
