Love hexes can get messy. Especially when you cast them on your sworn enemy. ✬ Good witch Lucinda 'Lucy' Winterhaven has done something *very* naughty. Influenced by copious amounts of toad's brew, she makes a brash decision to place a forbidden blood hex on Callum Black, the insufferable werewolf who irks her to no end, causing him to fall madly in love with her. Once she comes to her senses, Lucy quickly reverses the hex and wipes Callum's memory to erase any trace of her wrongdoing, but not before making the biggest mistake ever (besides the hex, that is!). The consequence of this upends both their lives, resulting in a rushed marriage neither Lucy or Callum is thrilled about. She is then whisked to the remote highlands of Scotland, forced to live amongst werewolves who scorn her - one of which includes her new husband, who refuses to forgive her for hexing him in the first place. As Lucy learns to rely on her inner strength, will the witch continue shutting Callum out? Or will she finally find common ground with him, in the form of searing, insurmountable desire? Only time will tell in this standalone sequel to 'Bewitched & Bothered'! ✬ UPDATING WEEKLY! ✬

Hadley Jamison doesn't know what to think when she hears that her classmate, Archer Morales, committed suicide. She didn't exactly know him, but that doesn't stop her from feeling like there was something she could have done to help him. So to Hadley's surprise, on the very night of Archer's funeral, she has a run in with Death himself and is offered the chance to go back in time to stop Archer from ending his life. The catch? She only has twenty-seven days to do it. And if Hadley doesn't succeed? Well, she doesn't want to think about that.
