About this series
Ranulf never expected to return to the home of his family's oldest rival. But to stop the violent plans of a blood-sorcerer, he must protect the island's magic. And face the only woman he ever loved.

Years ago, Tara was forced to make a choice: Ran or her family. She's never regretted staying for her siblings, but she's never forgotten the boy she loved. Now he's back and she's facing the choice all over again. Protect the family's dark secret by lying to him?
