Shelving Magic
A chaotic librarian. A dangerous library. A magical disaster waiting to happen.
Paige Turner has always been… a bit of a mess.
But when her bank account flatlines, she never expects her next job to be the newest librarian in Shadow Harbor — a place where the books bite back and the magic is definitely not OSHA-approved.
Instead of stamping due dates, Paige is suddenly responsible for shelving:

- supernatural items that could end the world if misfiled
- and a teacup-sized dragon with more sass than sense
Her first assignment?
A “simple” magical retrieval that turns into a chaotic math lesson involving way too many werewolves.
Every mistake could doom the world…or just get her flattened by a rogue spell before lunch.
Perfect for fans of The Librarians, Warehouse 13, and magical mayhem mixed with cozy mystery charm.
