Winterbloom, VA. Home to mundane, small town happenings and an underground network of witches dating back farther than the Salem Witch Trials. The remaining Council of Seven Elders have been anticipating the arrival of a new generation of magically connected witches within their bloodlines. The new council’s purpose? To restore the magic reserves from near-total depletion by a former council member, whose unchecked journey into dark magic will bring about the end of all humankind.

Hazel Whittler was not a witch. She was a graduate of Duke, a daughter to two respected clinicians, a sister, a best friend, a Broadway enthusiast. A witch? No way. The last 29 years of her blissfully average life would seem to solidify that fact. But Hazel’s untapped magic might be the key to unlocking the power within more than just herself. Hazel’s return to Winterbloom, to the Morrisette Family Inn, to William, Opal, Lydia, Zoe, Olwyn, and Isabelle, will lead to more than just rekindled romances and the kind of friendships that get forged under fire. Hazel’s unique gifts can help reveal long-buried family secrets and unify a world she had never even known existed, but a world that would inspire her to risk just about everything to save it.
