Dalian Rhodes and Cademy Harris have owned their shop together as the best of friends for centuries, taking in the oddest of wares - the secrets buried in the hearts of their customers. Now the magic that sustains their livelihoods is dwindling and they're struggling to find the business they rely on.
Candice Callingwood was innocent before she fell in love. Betrayed by the love she so willingly gave, she'll do anything to give back her broken heart and once again become the girl her husband married. When she finds the elusive shop that's rumored to accept untouchable forms of payments, she comes face to face with Dalian, the shopkeep himself, and he is not what she expected.
In a desperate move, he gives her what she wants but Dalian's never had a customer like Candice. And may never again if he doesn't find a way to get her back to normal before she turns 300 years of magic-gathering on its head and put him out of business for good!
Even getting Candice back, the attraction between Candice and his best friend is so palpable, Dalian just may end up selling himself his own broken heart.
