About this ebook
A passionate and paranormal novel of love and mystery at Christmastime from New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author and “magnificent storyteller” (RT Book Reviews) Christine Feehan.
Kate Drake, a well-traveled bestselling novelist, is one of seven sisters…who just happen to be witches. When she returns to her small coastal hometown before Christmas to attend her sister’s wedding, she decides to settle there permanently after discovering a charming but run-down historic house. She’s determined to open a bookstore there and sets about clearing it out when an earthquake occurs, knocking down part of the wall and revealing a burial crypt.
Intrigued but cautious, she turns to a handsome carpenter but she begins to sense that neither the carpenter nor the law nor any otherworldly power can help her reign in the evil that was released from the crypt. She will have to summon all of her supernatural power—and that of her six sisters—to destroy the sinister force that is casting a dark shadow over her hometown in this novel where “dark suspense and sensual romance coexist…in unlikely but perfect harmony” (Publishers Weekly).

I've read all of the Drake sisters books and truly enjoyed them all.I related to Kate in several ways, of course number one is being a reader, it's my favorite thing to do. This story has it all.excitement, mystery, romance, laughter. One of my favorite things about the Drakes is their generosity. They give all of themselves.

The first that I ever read by Christine Feehan was "Safe Harbour" & that's how I became an " Intrigued Reader" of Christine Feehan's Books. I love the way she puts all the Romance, Paranormal, and Thrill all together! This would be my Third Book I have read and don't plan to stop anytime soon!

I have 13 siblings. The sisters playfulness and teasing brings back lovely memories. Their men manage to stay strong even when they have no clue.
