'A deliciously dark tale of sisterhood that felt richly magical' – Lucy Jane Wood, author of Rewitched

***
From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic
In the small town of Gold Springs, Calliope Petridi and her two sisters carefully guard the secret of their magic and the price they must pay to practise it: memories. Luckily, all Calliope wants to do is forget: the mother who left without a trace, the sisters from whom she feels increasingly distant, and most of all, the way the love of her life shattered her heart two years ago.
But when an ancient evil awakens, the fragile thread that holds the sisters together breaks. As their magic slowly begins to fade, Calliope accidentally binds herself to the handsome leader of a rival coven infamous for their ruthless pursuit of power. Battling the sizzling chemistry with a man she can't trust, Calliope must confront painful memories of her past, dark family secrets, and ancient magic in order to protect the town and all she loves.
But will she have anything left of herself?

I felt a slight disappointment with this one. I felt pasts were overly description and sometimes repetitive but other areas that needed a bit more explanation were kind of glossed over. It's definitely darker in tone than the author's debut book, which isn't a bad thing, just maybe not what I was expecting. Calliope and Lucien were an intriguing couple and all the bantery bickering made me smile. They aren't perfect and have some flaws which always makes for a better character in my opinion.
