These are not the mild-mannered maidens of your childhood. These are fallen princesses and fierce women with no recollection of who they are, where they came from, or how they arrived in a mysterious town called Everafter. All they know is that they've been sentenced to a stretch in a half-way house by a malicious judge with an ax to grind. They've been stripped of their freedom, their kingdoms, and their true loves. Now, they have nothing left to lose.

When last we left our fierce princesses - rulers of the United Kingdom of Enchantment, they had found themselves in grave peril. Facing an unseen enemy, an unknown nemesis. Dare I say, a villain. Not one of mine, of course. No, whoever was behind the spell that stole the memories of my princesses was far darker than any my imagination had ever conceived. This villain was far more cruel than a stepmother, more heartless than a greedy queen, more diabolically patient than a wicked witch.

Stacy Justice is a young reporter who lives in Chicago, far away from the kooky small town of Amethyst, Illinois, where she was raised by a family of witches. She’s perfectly content with her career, her cat, and her lack of a love life until her cousin informs her that their grandfather is deathly ill. Stacy road-trips home only to discover that her grandfather was poisoned, her grandmother has confessed to the crime, and there’s a new chief in town who is easy on the eyes, but tough on witches.

Stacy Justice finds herself caught in a web of deceit, betrayal, and family secrets that run deeper than the Mississippi. Not only must the reluctant witch determine if the teenager on her doorstep is her sister, she’s also forced to confront her mother's disappearance - again. Add to that, a dead guy in the kitchen, and Stacy's at her witch's end. She's pretty sure the Blessed Book of her family's ancestry holds the key. Except, she can't find it. And if the killer does, it may be over Stacy's dead body.

When someone burns down her cousin's bar, sassy, sharp-tongued reporter Stacy Justice will have to embrace the magic in her blood that she'd just as soon forget.

When her cousin is accused of arson, Stacy is determined to clear her family name - until something cryptic is discovered in the rubble that changes everything.
