When Kate, a recovering addict, meets handsome, bad-boy Aiden, her resolve to stay sober lasts only until he tempts her with the Spellbinding: an intoxicating magic. But Aiden's ex-best-friend, Chase, won't stop warning Kate that Aiden is a Shade--a dangerous sorcerer. 

When Kate naively agrees to initiate into the Shades, and is compelled to do evil to those she loves, it's Chase who saves her life, and Aiden who threatens it--but still swears his love for her.

Trapped in an ancient conflict between light and dark power, and good and evil men, will Kate give in to the dark allure of Aiden and his power despite the cost? Or will she choose the strong but gentle Chase, turning them both into targets for every dark magician in the modern world?

They Both Love Me, But One is a Devil

Aiden whips into the driveway so fast the cars make a tiny screech. The car engine whines down to an idle, then stops suddenly, and all the noise around me dies.


A whisper sounds in my head again, but it fades with the rumble of the car engine and I can't make it out before it's gone. But it makes me ache.


"Can you walk okay?" Aiden's voice is quiet. Tense. He's staring at the house, not at me.


I nod. "Thanks for . . . what happened tonight?"


He makes a weird huffing sound and shrugs. "Nothing. People just got a little . . . excited. It was fine. I took you out because it was time to go."


I can't meet his eyes. My hands tremble and my stomach feels strange. But I open the door and stand, thumping my feet on the ground. I am solid. With every breath I'm less foggy. I need to think this through. Can't try to talk to him about it now because I still can't think.
