Jaxon Halstead has finally found his soulmate. The only problem: she’s a witch, and he can’t stand witches. There’s something unique about Piper Pendragon, though, and Jax is eager to find out more about her. Too bad she’s keeping secrets that will derail every plan he has for their future. 

A centuries old blood oath has bound Piper to another, and if she doesn’t live up to her royal duty, she and her sisters will face certain death. Jax refuses to let her go, and he’ll do whatever is necessary to keep her, including waging war with the entire magical community. Again.

Suitable for readers 18+ for sexual content, cursing, and violence.

Wars of the Heart Series

Oh, God! What had I done? Had I really banished my own sister? I clutched my stomach, my breaths coming in hard, jagged rasps. Sweat beaded on my brow, and everything around me started to spin. I knew how much Piper loved Jax, and all I'd wanted to do was free her from this life so she could be with him. But instead, I'd caused chaos.


I doubled over and gasped for breath, my insides raw and aching. Banishing Piper didn't just hurt emotionally, the physical pain was just as sharp and intense. Losing her had weakened me - our coven - and that was the dumbest thing I could've done right now. 


"Sophie? Are you alright?" Peyton stood by my side, rubbing my back.


Around me, witches and guards shouted at each other, though I couldn't decipher many of their words. King Draven barked orders, and my head pounded with every shouted word. I straightened. As much as I wanted to be alone to grieve the loss of Piper, I couldn't.
