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

Jerry looks back and forth between us, then sighs. "Kate, the bond of a true Pair, like yourselves, is a really wonderful thing. It's relatively rare, and your ability to communicate… there's no doubt in my mind that this was intended for you, and it will bless your life. I want you to know that before I explain. Do you understand that?"

"I already said I would have taken it anyway," I mutter.

"That's good," Jerry says. "So, what you need to understand then, is that what the bond creates between you is… a soul tie, I suppose. I'm not sure how else to explain. A connection—like a binding—between you and Chase that is at the soul level. It's beyond the family, physical body, everything. No matter where you are, or what you become, Chase will always be a part of you, and you a part of him."

I nod again. "I'm waiting for the part that makes me want to stab something."
