Three hundred years ago, four witches went into the forest to cast a spell of protection against the evil creeping into their town but they were too late.
Today, Rue Channing never sees it coming, and she should because seeing is her special power. Still, who would have expected to be kidnapped and hauled off to a small coastal town in Maine?
But that is exactly what happened. Now, Rue, a lover of order and strict routines, is dragged out of her comfort zone and into a new life in the small, coastal town of Laurel Haven.
Things could not be worse, she thinks, until she meets the man next door and decides they could. Ry McFadden is the most infuriating man on the planet. He's a study in contrasts; grumpy yet generous, intensely private, but somehow open. Rue can't think what to do with him, except she can, and that just makes things worse.
The problem is, Ry McFadden just might be part of Rue's destiny as she learns she's been brought to Laurel Haven to finish what her ancestors started.
