Synopsis

Mountain Magic contains three tales by Willa Okati about a little rural town in the foothills of Appalachia where things aren’t always what they seem.

A Year and a Day
Fate parted lovers Slate and Ash far before their time. With the help of a little mountain magic, Slate has found the key with which he can turn back the clock and savor one perfect day with his lover. This gift comes with a hefty price tag, though. Can Slate and Ash pay the piper without being parted a second time?

Unspoken
Ian, who once made his living using his rich, expressive voice, has been rendered mute after being cursed by a leaving lover. He wants, more than anything, to speak and to love again. He may get both his wishes when he discovers the wandering bard Andy in the ruins of his garden. Andy, who carries more than a touch of mountain magic…

The Letter
Luke and Brandon, longtime lovers, are parting ways so Luke can go to New York to seize the opportunity of a lifetime. Brandon’s willing to let Luke leave, but there seems to be a force at work which doesn’t want to see them parted. The two discover a box of letters chronicling a love affair that’s eerily like their own, but dated in 1948. The letters warn against a separation. It’s up to Luke and Brandon to decide what to do next. Go…or stay?
