The Enchantment Emporium by Tanya Huff
The Gales of southern Ontario can change the world with the charms they cast, and they prefer to keep all this power in the family. The Gale Aunties are in charge of this clan, or like to think they are. Alysha, like all her cousins, often finds herself beset with too many Aunties trying to run her life. So when a letter from her missing Gran arrives telling her that she s inherited a junk shop in Calgary, Alysha is ready and willing to honor her grandmother s last request to keep the shop open and serve the community. The Aunties, of course, want her to find out what really happened to Gran and come right back home, where they have her future mapped out for her. It isn t until she arrives in Calgary that Alysha realizes it s the fey community she ll be serving in The Enchantment Emporium and that one person s junk may be another person s magical treasure. Finding out what happened to Gran will not be easy, especially since Alysha has no way of knowing just how much otherwordly trouble is brewing in Calgary. And even calling in family reinforcements may not be enough to save the day .
"Fantasy buffs will find plenty of humor, thrills and original mythology to chew on, along with refreshingly three-dimensional women in an original, fully realized world" —Publishers Weekly

Tanya Huff may have moved away from Nova Scotia when she was three years old and has spent the majority of her life in Ontario, but she still considers herself a Maritimer. She earned a degree in Radio and Television Arts from Ryerson Polytechnic on her route to the lovely rural existence she shares with her girlfriend Fiona Patton, six cats, and a chihuahua, an education she was thrilled to finally put to use while writing her new Smoke novels. Blood Price, Blood Trail, Blood Lines, Blood Pact, Blood Debt--featuring Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, romance writer, and vampire--are among the most successful of her previous twenty-three works.
