Lilac Hawthorne has been forced to do her grandmother’s bidding since before she could walk, let alone perform her first spell. Until now. With the coven away on business, she and her siblings are put in charge of the Yuletide Gala, which is much more than hanging mistletoe and spiking the eggnog. This is the time when alliances are renewed, enemies seize the advantage of the matriarch’s absence, and for Lilac, the chance to finally break free of her grandmother’s iron reign and follow her heart…
…straight into the arms of a wolf.
Ex-Green Beret...
Could forbidden love be her path to freedom?

…straight into the arms of a wolf.
Ex-Green Beret and lone wolf shifter, Allen Chase only accepted this babysitting mission to push his resumé to the top of the Coalition’s application pile. His task is simple—hide in plain sight, protect the witches, and definitely not fall for one of them. Their kind is forbidden to someone like him, after all. Yet as constant attacks bring Allen and Lilac closer together, their attraction proves undeniable. Inevitable. Fated. Lilac is everything he never knew he wanted, and with her enemies closing in, he’ll do anything to protect her. Including sacrificing her trust. Is he strong enough to break his own heart to set the woman he loves free?
