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

Don't give up yet, he thinks back to me. I sigh and his thumbs dig into my shoulders, right where they meet my neck and it hits the spot of the greatest tension so well I want to groan.

"I think I'll leave you two to talk—in a minute," Jerry says, still with a small smile. "But as your Guide, I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't offer you some guidance for this. So… Kate?"

I open my eyes and look at him. "You need to understand that the Light uses us in each others lives. To support. To help. And sometimes to correct. I'm a firm believer that nothing happens without a reason. And when you're as connected to the Light as you are, He wouldn't have allowed this to come into your life if He didn't have a very good reason for it. So, since this is where you're at now—don't fight it. Ask yourself and the Light how the circumstances He's given you can work out in the very best way. Please."

Don't Give Up
