'The romance sizzles in this spooky paranormal world of witches, curses, and brooding gray characters. A delight for the fans of adult paranormal and gothic romances!' - RuNyx, New York Times bestselling author of Gothikana
“Your destiny is not to do what is right. Your destiny is to destroy us all.”
Willow Madizza never thought she’d accept a place at Hollow’s Grove University, the secret and prestigious institution where the best and brightest of her fellow witches learn to wield their magic.
But Willow has reasons for being at Hollow’s Grove beyond the education it offers. Raised to be a weapon against the Coven that presides over the University, she must find the bones of her ancestors in order to reclaim the magic that is her destiny.
Her only obstacle is Alaric Grayson Thorne, the University’s beautiful and infuriating Headmaster. Gray is ruthless, manipulative, dangerous – he represents everything Willow has been taught to despise. But despite their mutual loathing, Gray understands Willow better than anyone, and he might just be the key to unlocking her full power . . .

The Coven
I actually bought this book because I got the second book on audio through NetGallery before realising that it was the second book and I gotta read the first (oopsie). But now I am glad I need to start a new audio book on the commute to work on Monday cause, CLIFFHANGERS!! Wow, I really give you a lot of useless information to go along with my review.
So, the book. There was quite a lot going on with the magic and the demons and how everyone came to be how they are. I have so many questions that I’m not sure are ever going to be answered. There’s a lot of side characters that were introduced to but don’t learn a lot about, but I’m hoping we get there in book two.
Gray and Willow were a bit meh for me tbh. Like, I know we’re meant to love the villain and enemies to lovers and all that, but he was just always lying, manipulating and controlling her so I didn’t get her draw to him. There was enough there to get me invested in them working it all out though, and I am definitely going to read the second book.
