Witch princess, Quayk SpellMaker, is engaged in a battle of wills over an 'arranged' marriage to a man she hates. Magic couldn't have come up with a better way to ruin her life!

Quayk's father might believe this marriage would be good for the witch community, but her intended is an arrogant ass and being forced to marry him would drive a stake through her heart. Quayk would rather risk the alternative—being alone and without a mate forever.

Her only choice is to run.

If her father knew what she was up to, she would be locked in the ancient dungeons until she died of old age—or worse yet, chained in Hollister Firedrake's dungeon until she died of heartbreak and loathing...until she killed the bastard.

Gargoyle shifter, Alex McCall, is assigned to guard Quayk and make sure she marries. When she runs, Alex must go after her and make sure she gets to the church on time. But the more time he spends ensuring Quayk marries another, the more he wants the beautiful, quirky witch for himself.
