When magical women are rare, two ladies will dare to let desire lead them this holiday season.

Gorgon-blooded witch Evetta St. Aubert has been abandoned by everyone all her life. A small detail she won’t let hold her back from being the perfect rule-following prefect over her dorms. When winter break comes, that perfect skin is shed to reveal more monstrous desires. Every year, she takes a lover, but none have stayed.

Seamstress and dreamer, Gemma Stein, is considered a pariah due to the vitiligo on her skin. Her father’s machinations would see her bound to his plans with little regard for her true desires. When she has the opportunity to spend more time with the woman of her dreams, their connection soon weaves them tighter than ever before. Yet, if her father has his way, she’ll have no choices left.

Is their flirtation only skin deep or can Evetta and Gemma navigate the trials ahead together?

One thing is certain, they can’t go back to how things were.

Standalone sapphic romance with a Happily-For-Now ending. Gemma and Evetta continue as side characters in The Wildeward Academy series.
