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, ignoring Chase behind me, grabs my arm and pulls me in to whisper in my ear, "There's no almost about it. Derek will kill you if you bail." I struggle, but he's too strong. I can't break the grip. "You're a dead man walking. Your sister is motivation to keep you focused—"

My entire body goes cold like a bucket of ice water was dropped over my head. But before I can react, a massive hand lands on Aiden's chest and he's pushed away from me.

Faster than I thought his bulk could move, Chase has shoved between Aiden and me and they're staring each other down—Aiden slightly taller, Chase half-again as wide. Both with fists clenched at their sides, fire in their eyes.

"Get. Your hand. Off me," Aiden says through his teeth.

"Why don't you try threatening me, instead? See how far that gets you?" Chase's voice is so low it's almost a growl.
