A powerful witch comes into her own in this small-town romance filled with family ties, shifters and magic. Three years ago, Katie Faith Grady left Diablo Lake, heartbroken and humiliated by a man who didn't deserve her in the first place. Her return-to help run her family's soda fountain while her dad recovers from a heart attack-awakens the powerful magic that is her birthright. It also puts her directly in the path of a certain werewolf she's never been able to forget. Deputy Jace Dooley is a lot of things: alpha wolf, former bad boy, excellent mechanic. His new role of neighbor to the beautiful witch he's been in love with since forever is a welcome plot twistbut Jace's chief instinct is to protect. And a witch with as much raw power as Katie won't be claimed on anyone's terms but her own.
