Today we are asked about our favourite scent and what it evokes for us.

I have a lot of scents that mean something to me. Fire wood smoke reminds me of camping, cinnamon reminds me of Christmas and Valentines. Pumpkins and nutmeg remind me of fall which is the best season.

One of my favourite smells is the ocean breeze. Everything about it calms me and brings me to a place I love. The water is where I feel at home. I guess I should really live near the ocean or a lake.

I also love anything scented with sandalwood or cigar smoke. I don’t know why. Perhaps it is the romance books I read and that’s how all the heroes smell. I have some candles that are tobacco and leather and I could just sit at my desk smelling it all day long.

A new book is also the best smell. Every time I get a book I’ll flip the pages and smell. I really think there needs to be a candle that smells like books!

That’s it for me today. Now continue on the hop to see what the wonderful A.S. Fenichel’s favourite scent is. Until next time!


PreOrder Magic Word by A.S. Fenichel!

Magic Word

MINERVA

While I prefer simple magics, and hide my more deadly skills, I can defend myself. My gift, shield magic, makes me impervious to dark magic, so my coven sent me to determine what evil lurks inside the Kent coven in the town of Maidstone. I’m to stay with a trusted nonmagical apothecary who has petitioned for entry to the Witches of Windsor. Jonah Allen lives outside of Maidstone. I’ll be safe at his home. I expect to find a bookish man bent over his concoctions, but instead, I find a hulking bear of a man who stimulates more than my intellect…

JONAH

Though born to a powerful witch, I have no practical magic. Forced from my birth coven, I use my knowledge of medicines in nature as an apothecary, but living among ordinary people is a foreign, lonely existence. I’ve heard the Windsor coven is more open-minded about membership, and I have nothing to lose by requesting admission.

Windsor sends a powerful witch to stay with me while she investigates the local coven. One look at Minerva Honeywell shatters everything I thought I knew about witches. She’s kind and thoughtful, and I’m under her spell from the start. My future in her coven—and in her life—depend on us finding the source of dark magic and keeping it far from Windsor and the king.
