March 13, 1692.
In every corner of the country, witches are being thrown into burning pits of fire, their skin scorched until it crumbles to dust. Kings, dukes, commanders, priests, all conspiring with one another to bring death to any threat coming their way.
Seraphina Blackwood, Princess of the Fells, is a witch. For 18 years, her mother, Evanora, taught her everything that she knew. As Queen, Evanora used her powers as a gift, a way to help her people. But, 18 years later, her family's secret was uncovered and the last of Seraphina's family was burnt to ashes.
Seraphina ran. She ran away from home, faking her death, and her family tree was broken. Her home was raided, her family's name burnt to the ground. People of power banished the Blackwood name -- whoever uttered it would face death.
She's taken up a new name: Maeve, a warrior queen. Nobody must discover her true identity; nobody must know that she has royal blood running through her veins.
But, she is determined to stand strong. Determined to cherish her gift. Determined to carry out the promise she made to her mother: the promise to stay alive.

thank you @thelollipopkid for this beautiful cover!
This is the tale of three extraordinary white witches-Raven, the wise and formidable mother; Raven is betrayed by her mate and leaves the pack broken-hearted.
She births the second white witch in the forest, where she teaches Midnight her witchcraft.
They are all blessed with powers beyond belief.
But Star surpasses them all with her powers, she is stronger than any witch alive.
Midnight, her daring and determined daughter. Then comes Star, the luminous granddaughter destined for greatness.
Separately, their lives weave a tapestry of adventure, magic, and self-discovery as they navigate the intricate art of witchcraft.
Bound by an ancient cycle, each white witch gracefully steps aside when her child turns sixteen, her essence passing on to the next generation in a mystical rebirth.
This sacred lineage continues with each witch leaving behind a legacy of wisdom, power, and love.
Along their journey, all three witches encounter their destined mates, forging bonds as unbreakable as the magic that courses through their veins.
Through sad times, the ones that are left behind only want to be left alone to help people and to keep their pack safe.
