Clause & Effect
A Cozy Romance Wrapped in Magic
Eight years ago, Tex Moran was an overwhelmed grad student trying to balance sorcery theory, candle-lit exams, and a professor who seemed engineered in a lab to be brilliant, intimidating, and annoyingly unforgettable. In a moment of frustration, Tex muttered one careless sentence-a vow she didn't realize was, in fact, magically binding.
Now she's thirty-one, exhausted, and trying to convince herself she's perfectly fine with her solo life, thank you very much. Then a thunderstorm cracks open her Thursday night, and Morgan Vale-professor, witch, and walking embodiment of Tex's unresolved issues-appears on her doorstep with a contract that's glowing like a smug firefly.
"Alexandra Xanthe Moran," Morgan says, crisp as ever, "you owe me a child."
Not that kind of child-at least, not necessarily. The universe, being unhelpfully literal and aggressively broad in its interpretations, decided Tex and Morgan had unfinished business-and Morgan has been charged with facilitating its completion.
Tex wants answers.
Morgan brings documentation.
The universe provides commentary in the form of sparks, thunderstorms, and impeccably timed complications.
And the contract doesn't expire until the obligation is fulfilled.
What follows isn't spellcraft so much as cosmic bureaucracy with feelings. Every attempt to meet the terms drags them closer together-late-night arguments, accidental intimacy, conversations that veer toward confessions, and a bond that keeps flaring no matter how hard they try to frame this as "purely procedural."
Tex begins to suspect the universe is engineering these moments.
Morgan begins to suspect her professionalism is losing a battle she never meant to fight.
And both realize that "shared creation" may not mean producing anything magical at all-it might mean acknowledging the connection that's been simmering beneath their history.
Clause & Effect is a cozy sapphic romance wrapped in candlelight, starlight, and gentle magic. It's about unexpected second chances, the trouble with careless vows, and the way life sometimes hands you the person you least expect-along with a contract you never saw coming.
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
- Cozy queer romance
- Soft contemporary fantasy
- Slow-burn sapphic tension
- Witches, spellcraft, and low-stakes magic
- Warmth, wit, and a dash of cosmic meddling
Sometimes the universe writes the spell.
Sometimes it waits.
And sometimes... it gives you one last nudge toward the right person.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
