Bound to Burn

Jo Woodridge has spent most of her life far from Saltmere, but after her mother's death, she's pulled back to the mysterious coastal town to inherit the Ashborne House. What she discovers is far more than just a forgotten estate: it's the heart of her family's dark legacy. The mansion seems to whisper secrets-secrets that only Jo can uncover. Jo is the last of the Ashborne witches, and the curse that's haunted her ancestors has finally caught up to her.
The Ashborne Curse binds her bloodline to an ancient prophecy, one that foretells either the restoration of Saltmere's magical balance or its destruction.
As Jo begins to unlock the dormant powers within her, she is guided by Greer, her enigmatic and loyal familiar. Greer has been bound to her family for centuries, and his presence awakens more than just Jo's magic-it stirs a deep connection that neither of them can deny. But as her power grows, so does the danger. The Purifiers, a secretive and ruthless faction, are bent on eradicating every witch they can find, and Jo's awakening powers have made her their prime target.
With time running out, Jo must confront her fate. The secrets of her past, the true nature of her magic, and the terrifying prophecy surrounding her family are all on the line. Torn between embracing the legacy of her bloodline or breaking free from the curse that threatens to consume her, Jo must make a choice that will shape the future of Saltmere-and the man who holds her heart.
Will she choose to destroy the curse-or find a way to break it and save everything she loves?
