Druid Apprentice

I killed four people. At least, that's what the jury decided. The night my family's curse detonated, it shattered every future I had planned—college, medical school, a life that made sense. Instead, I got eighteen months in prison and a felony record that won't let me forget.

Now I work at a junkyard-adjacent coffee shop and train under Colin McCool—the most dangerous druid in Texas—learning to control the power that nearly destroyed me. Because magic answers to will—and mine has already failed once.

So I'm trying to stay invisible, keeping my nose clean while I get my life back on track.

Then Agent Lucas Caruso shows up. He knows what I am. He knows what I did. We don't trust each other. Unfortunately, whatever he's hunting is tangled in the threads of my curse.

And when my bad luck shifts from random to deadly, I know I can't hide any longer.

If I can't forge a future from the wreckage of my past, the next time my magic flares…

People will get hurt—and my newfound freedom will become a distant memory.
