"a magically edgy coming-of-age story" —Didi Oviatt "a deliciously sensuous dive into Wicca" —JP McLean "As one of you has spun the charm, now none of you are safe from harm. One who all felt they could trust, breeds deception cloaked in lust. One will gain their heart's desire; while yet another pays with fire. Before the dark of winter night, four souls pass over into light. Once begun it cannot end, but circles round as circles bend." When a third witch vanishes from Vancouver, the witches of Hollystone Coven spin a charm to catch the killer. But spells spin ripples and in the ensuing chaos, an innocent girl gets caught up in the charm. As obsessed with the killer as the killer is with him, their high priest, Estrada, vows to find the man and stop him. A Wicca coven. A terrifying prophecy. A seventeen-year-old girl and a serial killer hunting witches. Can Estrada stop him or is he too caught up in the charm? W.L. Hawkin weaves threads of Macbeth, ancient Irish myth, and edgy love into this mysterious urban fantasy. "Maggie lifted her long black sleeve and stared at the stinging tattoo on her left inner forearm just below the elbow. It hurt like hell, but she hadn't flinched. An exquisite Celtic war horse, it reared up on its hind legs and kicked out with its front. The body was solid black, the main and tail, a rippling white and black ribbon of Celtic knots. It had amber eyes and nostrils that flared like an angry dragon."

But when he asks Korede for Ayoola’s phone number, she must reckon with what her sister has become and how far she’s willing to go to protect her.

One of Cosmopolitan's Best Romance Novels Ever Turns out that reading nothing but true crime isn't exactly conducive to modern dating—and one woman is going to have to learn how to give love a chance when she's used to suspecting the worst. PhD candidate Phoebe Walsh has always been obsessed with true crime. She's even analyzing the genre in her dissertation—if she can manage to finish writing it. It's hard to find the time while she spends the summer in Florida, cleaning out her childhood home, dealing with her obnoxiously good-natured younger brother, and grappling with the complicated feelings of mourning a father she hadn't had a relationship with for years. It doesn't help that she's low-key convinced that her new neighbor, Sam Dennings, is a serial killer (he may dress business casual by day, but at night he's clearly up to something). It's not long before Phoebe realizes that Sam might be something much scarier—a genuinely nice guy who can pierce her armor to reach her vulnerable heart.
