Anna Burke knows evil is coming for her. A prophecy, spoken centuries earlier, tells of a battle she and her siblings will have to fight and win. She's accepted that and has trained her entire life, honing her magic in preparation for that destiny. But when a tough and sexy ex-MMA competitor and a small, traumatized child find their way into her life, she'll have more at risk than ever before. Joe Conrad understands fighting, and he's had his fair share of bloody bouts. But when he falls for Anna Burke, the trouble she brings with her is well beyond anything he's ever encountered. Witches, magic, and an evil hundreds of years old-Joe never could have imagined what he'd face by standing at her side. But there's no place he'd rather be.
