There, an apple tree bearing fruit of magical properties looms over a garden filled with herbs and edible flowers that possess the power to affect in curious ways anyone who eats them. It is a privilege and an honor to lend support to Sarah Addison Allen and her amazing and magical first novel GARDEN SPELLS.Claire explains the magic of the tree to Tyler who shares that he ate one of the apples and had a vision of Claire in her garden.
