Once upon a time, I thought my stutter was the worst thing that ever happened to me. But now I know better. Being held at gunpoint outranks a speech impediment any day. Thankfully, my longtime crush Jayson Hernandez tackled that problem to the ground with those broad shoulders—the ones that make my stutter oh-so-much-worse.

Or each time he shoots me a friendly smile that makes my toes curl.

When it comes to men, I'd rather not. In fact, I prefer paints.

There are three rules I implemented five years ago that govern my safety around men. 1. Never alone. 2. Never stranded. 3. Never unaware. In those five years, I've never broken those rules. Not once. Because I will not be a fool again. Then I do break those rules—willingly—to help the older brother of my best friend, Vikram. Vikram is trouble. Has always been trouble. Charming, a little arrogant, and flighty as a bird when it comes to women. I spent half my childhood adoring him, half crying over him.

Wealthy landowners own the Eastern Network, so uneducated witch Vittoria Gutia isn't about to make any waves. She either works as a lavanda maid, or she and her beloved nephew starve to death.

A magic that doesn't care about the requirements of the Sirilas magic.

Charlie Dauphin and Max Sinclair have been best friends since they met on a rainy night at twelve years old.

With a team of Watchers and Defenders at their back, they'll do just that. But the winds of fate will turn such motivation against them. Charlie and Max have taken on more than any witch could bear alone.

Now ghosts from my past are following and I’m not sure there’s a happy-ever-after waiting at the end of this nightmare.
