A love that could cost them everything. ????🔥Veda Thorne is living on borrowed time. After exhausting every magical cure for the fatal curse trapped inside her, she's accepted her fate. But Veda's self-imposed isolation begins to crack when she's asked to tutor Antaris, a child whose pain calls to her own. Hiram Ellis left his wealthy, prejudiced family years ago. Now unexpectedly thrust into single fatherhood, he returns to his hometown, determined to build a life far from the cold privilege that stifled his own childhood. The last thing he expects is to be drawn to the fiercely protective, sharp-tongued woman helping his son. When a trail of enchanted spider lilies leads Hiram and Veda to discover their deadly tie to a prolific serial killer, they're forced to set aside their differences to unearth long-buried secrets. But the truth is as deadly as Veda's curse, and both come at a devastating cost. As victims mount and motives emerge, their greatest challenge is choosing to trust and love each other.
