Hazel Beck

Hazel Beck is a pen name behind the Witchlore series of cozy contemporary fantasy novels. The books, including Small Town, Big Magic, Big Little Spells, and Truly Madly Magically, follow a young woman who discovers she is one of a secret line of witches protecting an ordinary small town from supernatural threats. Blending small-town romance, found-family humor, and light urban fantasy stakes, the series fits within the popular cozy-fantasy and small-town-witch subgenre that pairs low-stakes charm with genuine magical worldbuilding. Each installment widens the town's cast of witches, familiars, and rivals while keeping its heroine's coming-into-her-power arc at the center. Hazel Beck has published five novels in the Witchlore series to date, including the forthcoming Some Kind of Haunted.
