The secret witch community in Raven’s Landing are at risk of exposure, throwing the coven into chaos.
Aveline and Eben are devoted friends, but Eben wants more—and deep down, so does Aveline. Something in the past is holding them apart. Eben Ayotunde is a stoic, gifted male witch, one who learned his magic in a baptism of fire in his homeland. He is humble and hardworking, but when provoked strikes like lightning, with fire and brimstone as his tools. Eben came to Raven’s Landing to be at one with people of his kind, but his attraction to Aveline allows him no peace. When Aveline is in danger Eben has no other choice but to protect her—even if it risks the disapproval of The Witches’ Council, and the wrath of the Lord of the Underworld.
Aveline Pascoe, the respected local librarian, mourns the loss of the academic life she had before she learned she was magical, and that’s what’s holding her back from loving Eben. When Aveline’s ex arrives—a professor who scorns the supernatural—to take apart the mythology and folklore of Raven’s Landing for the sake of a documentary, Aveline is forced to face her past, and defend what she has become. In doing so she learns what is worth defending, and who is destined to be her true hero.
