    Lily is a snow witch with powerful magic and a quick temper. Not the best combination. But she keeps to herself, and the few people she lets get close know she has a good heart, and that's enough for her. She doesn't need any drama in her life. Except she never knows what to expect from her next-door neighbor, who is a mad scientist. Then there's her meddling family back at the North Pole. Minor irritations, but they may or may not trigger her blizzard-inducing rage from time to time, resulting in out-of-season snowstorms, snowbound towns, and confused meteorologists worldwide. Good thing she has a fairy godmother. Or is it? When a forbidden paranormal romance brings secret magic and an unspoken curse to light, the weight of the world lands on Lily's shoulders. Break the curse, save the world. Fail... And she'll destroy everything.

    Her love for him grew more and more every time they met. And he, a married man with an infant son and young daughter, told her he cherished her deeply. But it wasn't until he confessed his family in a letter to her that the roses in the garden started to die of poison. And even after the love darkened, a young Elizabeth, kept him dear to her heart, tried to pluck him away from that life-even going as far as telling him that she would be a faithful mother to his children. In helplessness, he told her he only loved her on drunken sadness and longing. "We met in rough patches and on nights when loneliness was far too much. I cherished you. I cherished you very much." Weeks later, they'd meet for the last time. The only way to be rid of thorns on a rose is to be rid of the garden she once adored.
