Alex Cabrera is new to Shadow Wood, Pennsylvania. Not that he minded moving from the Sunshine State when there's nothing there to hold him down. Not even the clingy ex-boyfriend who won't stop calling him repeatedly throughout the day.
      
To Alex, Shadow Wood reminds him of a living Prozac commercial. Strangers smile and wave from their yards, while children blissfully run and play.  The town is unmistakably beautiful, a vibrant, historical community, with a river that runs through its center. 
      
If that's not enough to catch Alex's attention, there's also the four beautiful strangers he meets at a bonfire, who will force him to question his worldview.  Little does he know, a connection he shares with one of them, will alter his life forever.
      
But not everything in Shadow Wood is as blissful and rose colored as it appears.  A series of storms brewing on the horizon seem to portend something sinister is coming.  And though no one wants to admit it, Alex senses it will be a battle of life or death; good versus evil.  
      
And if he's right, what price must be paid?  What sacrifice must be endured?  What losses must be suffered?

Senior year starts with Jalen being his usual careless self - using magic to cut corners, get out of trouble, and impress friends. Avery is trying to keep a low profile, maintaining control over her magic and their fragile family dynamic. When a series of strange incidents and dark omens begin to affect Ashgrove - disappearing pets, ominous shadows, and a growing sickness in the local woods - Jalen and Avery are reluctantly forced to work together to investigate. As the danger escalates, Jalen's reckless magic starts to spiral out of control, putting Micah and the whole town at risk. Jalen and Micah's connection deepens amid the chaos, challenging Jalen to grow up and choose between his own selfish desires or protecting the people he loves. The siblings uncover that an ancient evil witch has returned to Ashgrove, seeking to reclaim power by feeding on the town's magic - and only Jalen and Avery, by combining their wild and tamed magic, can stop her.
