A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping

Luke and Posy drive to Edinburgh to visit their parents, but it is clear that Posy would have preferred to remain at the inn, where she is most comfortable. Posy adores Theo, and he is her favorite person. Luke also realizes that Matilda has learned to manage him by weaponizing Jasmine, the only person with whom he cannot bring himself to use his “arctic politeness.”

Matilda asks Luke if she should tell Jasmine about her romantic feelings, as they are both old and probably haven’t got much time left. Matilda says that the inn is the first place she has ever felt really accepted; she suggests that Luke could feel this way too if he were to let himself.

Meanwhile, Sera is losing hope of getting the ingredients for her spell. Luke begins to help around the inn, and his life has started to feel normal. However, although everyone else at the inn sustains hope for a future that is brighter than their pasts, he does not.

Posy and Luke’s mother is due to visit, but she cannot find the inn. Against Sera’s better judgment, she agrees to Luke’s request that she tell her magic to allow his mother to reach the inn.
