Author Ellen Dugan invites you back to Hemlock Hollow. In this first book of the spinoff series the hollow just got bigger, darker, and a whole lot sexier. Ruby Prentiss, proprietress of Bittersweet Books, is a powerful Witch. However, there is something about the copper-haired enchantress that makes her undeniably unique. Ruby's enigmatic past has only added to her mystique, and to her bookstore's reputation, which works out nicely because in Hemlock Hollow, the mortals, Lycans, Fae, and yes, Witches, have coexisted for over two centuries. For the past few years Ruby has tried to build a simple and peaceful life, making the effort to put her heartbreak over her former lover, Damien Dragos behind her. The tall, blonde and ripped Hunter, Valentin Lowell-annoying though he may be-might be just what she needs to shake off the past. However, the arrival of Ruby's beloved adoptive family has sent shock waves through the hollow, and caused friction between all of the other Supes. Why? Because Vampires have not resided in the hollow for decades and, like it or not, the other residents have been put on notice: everything is about to change. When a series of violent deaths occur, the nature of the killings causes blame to be cast squarely on Ruby's family, and this places Ruby and Valentin on a collision course. However things are never as they appear in the hollow, and the choices Ruby must make will change the course of her life, and the history of the hollow forever.
