A witch hiding her power. A baron with no interest in marriage. In a manor full of potential brides, it isn’t the demon that worries them.

Nicholas Huxley, Baron of Marstede, enjoys his solitude. He’d rather deal with the alleged demon haunting his lands than the gaggle of women invading his home. His mother has other plans, however. Not that her plans matter. He won’t change his mind about marriage. Not even for the woman swathed in secrets he’s determined to uncover.

Sadie Winsel learned the hard way that no one wants a mind-reader in their midst. In order to find acceptance, she must live a constrained life. She gives up brewing her beloved potions and keeps her head down to prevent anyone from discovering she is a witch. When a case of mistaken identity offers her the opportunity to step beyond her self-imposed cage, she can’t resist. Nor can she resist the protective baron who pretends to be a grump.

It is only meant to be a fleeting escape, a chance to be herself without the risk of betraying her secret. But when Sadie discovers the forest really is haunted, she must decide which is worse: facing a demon alone or trusting Nicholas with the truth of her power.
