Into the Midnight Wood is a charming and imaginative contemporary fairy tale filled with warmth, magic, and emotion. David Carew lives with Meredith Schwarzwelder, an endlessly strange and unpredictable roommate whose habits range from talking to mice to making terrible coffee. To survive daily life, David keeps a running list of everything that makes Meredith impossible and oddly unforgettable.

Living on the edge of the mysterious Midnight Wood is strange enough, but when magic begins to leak from the forest and a dark presence targets Meredith, David decides it’s time to escape both the cottage and his complicated feelings. Then an unexpected wedding opportunity pulls David back into Meredith’s orbit, forcing him to confront his ambitions, his frustrations, and the truths he’s been avoiding. In Into the Midnight Wood, danger and wonder quietly weave into everyday life.

As secrets surface and the forest grows more threatening, Into the Midnight Wood reveals that Meredith’s carefree charm hides deep wounds and that David’s irritation may be something much closer to affection. Thoughtful, cozy, and emotionally rich, Into the Midnight Wood is a story about identity, vulnerability, and the healing power of honest connection.
