BLURB:


A five hundred-year-old Book of Shadows. One missing locket. Find them first, or lose everything.



Star-crossed lovers disguised as best friends…



Antique bookstore owner Coleman Thorne dreams of a quiet life filled with his beloved novels and quirky Luna Lovett as his mate. Unfortunately, he’s been living in friend-zone hell since the moment they met. As someone who shuns drama, Cole’s world certainly has plenty of it, and the bulk stems from Luna’s revolving door of unsuitable fortune seekers. Yet he’s hiding a magical legacy that comes with problems of its own.


Heiress Luna Lovett is crazy about Cole Thorne but is convinced he’ll never return her feelings. After all, he’s kept her at arm’s length their entire relationship. No one has ever measured up to her best friend, and she fears they never will. Yet rather than appear pathetic and risk losing him, she’s determined to say nothing.



These two can’t get out of their own way until…


An attack on Luna’s beloved grandfather Gerald Lovett brings the Thorne family en masse. Cole’s confident Gerry’s unknown enemy will be outed in short order. Yet it’s Luna who possesses the untapped magic the man desperately covets, and his ultimate goal is the bride he means to claim-whether she agrees or not! Cole and Luna stand to lose more than just their friendship because her latent power can take down both the Lovetts and the Thornes.
