BEWITCHING 13 - Johnny Kavanagh

At Hogwarts, the scars of the war against the Carrows insurgence are still fresh, but for Johnny Kavanagh, the real battle is in his own head.

He is Gryffindor Golden Boy, a Quidditch star with a future as bright as his magic and a family that represents everything good and grounded in the Wizarding World. He has everything, except for the pieces of his past that keep slipping through his fingers like smoke. He is haunted by a voice he doesn't recognize and a pair of grieving green eyes that burn behind his eyelids every time he blinks.

Then there is Tara Lynch. The Slytherin Ice Queen, a "Carrow supporter" to some and a "Death Eater" to others. Once whispered to be the second coming of Rowena Ravenclaw, Tara is now a girl being systematically erased. With her wand snapped by the Ministry and a Restricting Order cutting her off from the siblings she would die to protect, she is waiting for the world to forget she ever existed.

But behind the insults and the house rivalry lies a secret corner in the Restricted Section, the scent of dark coffee, and a love so dangerous that someone rewired the world just to keep it hidden. When a chance encounter triggers a violent magical collapse, the barrier around Johnny's mind begins to crumble.

As the sparks of a suppressed soul-bond flare to life, Johnny and Tara must decide if they are willing to face the truth: that the person you were made to forget is the only one you can't live without.
