The ruling council of witches has chosen Stella Aldren, a talented young witch, to fulfill the ancient curse and ensure the survival of their kind. But as she embarks on her dangerous mission, she discovers that her target, Ethan Mather, is not just any ordinary mortal - he is the descendant of a notorious witch hunter, and their attraction is more than just a spark. As Stella stalks her prey at a political gala, she realizes that killing him may not be as straightforward as she thought. Ethan exudes an unknown and mysterious power that has captivated her, and she finds herself torn between her loyalty to her coven and her growing feelings for the enemy. But with another coven from Boston's underbelly also after Ethan, Stella must make an impossible choice: kill the man she loves or betray her own kind, putting herself in the crosshairs of dark magic. The stakes are high, and time is running out.
