Where Magic Meets Mayhem, and Secrets Are Written in Blood

Maeve Rowan Larkin thought buying an old church in a quiet town would be the perfect escape to finally settle down. But when a mysterious gargoyle and magical chaos enter the picture, her plans for peace and solitude quickly take a turn. With her new home full of quirky surprises, Maeve must juggle her growing feelings, unexpected visitors, and a very misogynistic religious fanatic who wants to “save” her. But Maeve isn’t looking for a savoir. In this witty, magical adventure, Maeve learns that sometimes the best things in life are the ones you never planned for.

Magic, Mischief, and a Gargoyle in the Mix

A reclusive witch. A stone-skinned housemate. A town ready to burn.

Maeve Larkin has rules. Stay quiet. Stay alone. Stay out of trouble. Converting a rural church into her own, personal Fortress of Solitude should have been a no-brainer.

But when a centuries-old gargoyle named Callum crashes into her life (and very nearly her body), those carefully built walls start to crack. Callum is loud, loyal, and impossibly hopeful—and he refuses to be shut out, no matter how hard Maeve pushes. As an obsessive local preacher stirs the town into a frenzy against her, Maeve finds herself outnumbered and out of options.

If she wants to survive—let alone fight back—Maeve will have to do the one thing she swore she’d never do again: trust.

Sharp, tender, and a little bit magical, Ink in the Hands of Witches is a story about found family, sacred community, and the courage it takes to choose connection over fear.
