‘Truly Madly Magically’ Authors Tease Georgie’s Love Story in Final ‘Small Town, Big Magic’ Book and Potential TV Series

As a seasoned movie critic with over three decades of immersion in the magical world of literature and cinema, I can confidently say that “Truly Madly Magically” by Hazel Beck is an enchanting addition to the ever-expanding genre of witchy tales. The book’s charm lies not only in its engaging narrative but also in the profound exploration of its characters’ inner struggles and journeys towards self-discovery.


Warning: The following narrative may reveal plot points from Hazel Beck’s “Truly Madly Magically,” released on August 27.

The writing duo Hazel Beck, comprised of Megan Crane and Nicole Helm, have one more installment left in their “Witchlore” series. This final book will conclude the adventures of witches Emerson, Rebekah, Ellowyn, Georgie, and their struggle against the malevolent Joywood coven, bringing an end to their four-part witch-themed narrative.

As I eagerly await the August release of Ellowyn’s enchanting tale, “Truly Madly Magically,” and the September 2025 unveiling of Georgie’s adventure, “Dragon Fires Everywhere,” in the captivating book series that started with “Small Town, Big Magic” in 2022, I can’t help but ponder what lies ahead before the grand finale. To help pass the time, here are some intriguing hints from Crane and Helm for EbMaster to decipher the conclusion of this magical journey.

Crane mentioned that Georgie needs to discover her strength, identity, and her long-standing love from the very first book – just so you remember, we hinted at this earlier. Friends who’ve read the books have found Georgie mysterious, which is easier to achieve with a secondary character.

Helm observed that unlike Ellowyn, she seems mysterious and distant, often lost in her thoughts. He added that it was important for us to understand the reasons behind this behavior.

Emerson manages the bookstore, but Georgie seems to be absorbed in books all the time according to Crane. Since we share her love for books as well, we understand her immersion in imaginary realms. It’s interesting to consider how these fictional worlds intersect with our everyday lives, especially when faced with advice about choosing a practical career over one that seems unrealistic. I myself experienced this, eventually becoming a romance author. Navigating the transformation of dreams into reality is a challenge many face. Georgie’s journey might involve exploring this tension in a more delightful way, as our story allows us to do.

Crane pointed out that the conclusion of “Small Town, Big Magic” left both Hazel Beck’s characters in tears, despite their tough exteriors rarely prompting them to shed tears over their own work. With a “beautiful and potentially bittersweet” ending planned for autumn, the authors of this series are considering reviving the books through a TV or movie adaptation, given the current popularity of romance stories in the film industry.

From my experience with various adaptations, I understand that it’s crucial to bring something unique to the table when working on a TV show, movie, or book. Therefore, our priority would be to find someone who can create a seamless narrative best suited for the chosen medium.

Crane expressed his belief that the series could be adapted for TV exceptionally well, stating, “It has the potential to become a captivating television series.” He continued by explaining how successful TV shows are often derived from books or book series, noting the difference between those that fall short and those that truly shine. According to him, the exceptional ones tend to take creative liberties and create a more harmonious world within their narrative. He expressed his hope that someone would adapt these books in such a manner, stating, “I believe they are ideal for this kind of adaptation.” He concluded by expressing his enthusiasm for the possibility.
