A spellbinding novel about a witch returning to Salem for a second chance at friendship and a fresh start - only to find herself entangled in dangerous hexes and an irresistible connection with a cursed detective - in this second installment of The Lost Souls Series.
Some friendships are rare, luminous and impossible to forget. But even the most enchanting bonds can fracture, leaving behind a silence shaped by time, distance and unspoken grief.
Eloise Snowdrop Willow knows this all too well. Her life in Florida - built more on escape than intention - has begun to unravel. When the familiar scent of sea-salt vanilla drifts through the air one morning, it stirs something she can't ignore: a call to return, to confront what she left behind and to find the person who once spoke the language of her heart.
Back in Salem, The Lost Souls House welcomes her with open arms. Invited to help run The Black Cat Coffee, Eloise finds herself woven into the fabric of the town, her warmth and talent drawing others in.
After an awkward first encounter, Detective Taylor White - bound by a curse that forbids him from falling in love - feels an undeniable pull toward Eloise. When strange hexes begin plaguing the town, suspicion turns toward Eloise and the Lost Souls Coven.
If they're not responsible, then who is?
