Roots Entwined
A dirt-witch farmer and a monster CEO must merge earth magic and honest consent to save a dying family farm from corporate sabotage.
Daisy Matthews returns to her family’s seven-generation farm to find its soil dying and the bank threatening foreclosure, just as Taurus Blackhorn — a towering half-minotaur tech mogul with a hidden ‘earth guardian’ heritage — arrives with an outsized offer to buy the land.
When their touch accidentally reawakens dormant crops, they discover the farm sits on converging ley lines being disrupted by a rival agribusiness, and that healing the land requires their combined magic.
As attraction deepens into partnership, they must expose the corporate conspiracy and confront a corruption spreading through the valley, while Daisy refuses to surrender her judgment, her land, or her autonomy to love or money.
Tropes: monster romance, fated/soul-recognition bond, forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers, small-farm vs. corporate villain, secret magical heritage, opposites attract (tradition vs. technology), protector hero, save-the-farm plot, touch-triggered magic, beast transformation control, billionaire hero who gives up his empire
