Tansy Shackleton has spent her entire life carrying the guilt of her family’s legacy. If not for her ancestor’s mistake, good witches might not be trapped in the coastal town of Laurel Haven, Maine. But no matter how hard she tries to make amends, she can’t stop seeing the stain on her soul. Not even at the cost of her marriage.
Connor Shackleton has tried everything he can think of to get his wife to see that she’s not to blame for the unwitting actions of a long-dead witch. At his wit’s end and unable to watch Tansy work herself into the ground for something that wasn’t even her fault, he proposes they take a break for a few days, just to get some perspective.
He should have known Tansy would martyr both their happiness on the alter of guilt, but he didn’t. He wanted her back almost from the minute he walked away, but she’s shut him out of her life as firmly as the door she closed behind him.
The problem is, life and death in Laurel Haven go hand in hand for witches of the blood--those bound to Laurel Haven by ancestral magic--and just like Tansy, Connor’s one of them. The only way to move forward is to turn and face the past head-on. Together with her new coven—and the man she still loves—Tansy will have to put all of Laurel Haven’s ghosts to rest or die trying.
