With the return of Major Kieran McCallen of the Magus Corps, life becomes complicated for novice witch Hailey Deveraux. Though she's still in love with the dark and brooding man, she's also in love with Piers Dayton, who couldn't be more different. As the coven master of the Castle coven, Piers has given her the protection, space, and love to become her own person. To her shock and dismay, Hailey learns that Kieran's return isn't just about her. He's on a mission, a dangerous one, for which her talents would be ideal. Though she can't deny him her help, his closed emotions and gruff manner hurt her more deeply than she can admit. But as the mission unfolds, her love for both Piers and Kieran can't be denied. Though coven master and Corps officer may not like one another, the one thing on which they can agree is Hailey. Emboldened by her time with Liona di Orsini, Hailey makes a request of her two lovers that takes even her breath away.
