Flirting with boys and hanging out with her best friend pretty much sums up Esmerelda's life, but it's all about to change. At eighteen, the toughest decision she should have to make is whether or not to go to college, not helping her dad pick out a casket for her mother. But, it's not until wounds heal instantly and flowers bloom in front of her eyes that she begins to question her sanity. Nothing. Absolutely nothing, could prepare her for being kidnapped and flown out of the country, only to find out her kidnapper is a warlock. Sanity? At this point she is sure either hers or his is gone. Magic isn't real, it's in stories and fairy tales parents tell little kids. Or is it? But there's more, much more... her blood is the secret gift bestowed by five dead witches and there is one warlock who'll stop at nothing to get it. To end the curse to his power and save herself, she must awaken the witches from their graves. Shouldn't be hard, right? With life as Esmerelda knew it officially over, it isn't until she meets Ian that she starts to feel normal again. He's all the eye candy plus a Guardian wrapped up in one hot package. But, the feelings she has for him aren't welcome because they make her forget the danger she's in. And forgetting could mean her death.
