When twenty-three-year-old surly, and slightly tipsy, Frankie finds her hag of a grandmother dead on the sofa, her best friend, playful Ben Bowen, introduces her to the magical underbelly of Aspen Ridge, Utah.

Ben is a witch, a seer to be exact, and he guides Frankie into her new identity as a healer, a restoration witch. With the help of Ben and his coven-mate Cleo, Frankie navigates the treacherous classes of witches: dragons, shifters, and the abhorred vampire-life-drinking witches. It was a vampire that killed Frankie's grandmother, and she's after Frankie. But, much to the chagrin of best friend Ben, it isn't Frankie's vitality that the vampire wants.

Frankie must work her newfound magic-despite her fear, her self- doubt, and her desire to have one more drink-with her friends to eliminate a common enemy. She'll have to endure nightmares and commit horrors unspeakable, or risk losing them all.

It will take guts ... whosever they may be.
