Summary

When Nell Channing arrives on charming Three Sisters Island, she believes that she's finally found refuge from her abusive husband - and from the terrifying life she fled so desperately eight months ago.

But even in this quiet, peaceful place, Nell never feels entirely at ease. Careful to conceal her true identity, she takes a job as a cook at the local bookstore café - and begins to explore her feelings for the island sheriff, Zack Todd.

But there is a part of herself she can never reveal to him - for she must continue to guard her secrets if she wants to keep the past at bay. One careless word, one misplaced confidence, and the new life she's so carefully created could shatter completely.

Just as Nell starts to wonder if she'll ever be able to break free of her fear, she realizes that the island suffers from a terrible curse - one that can only be broken by the descendants of the Three Sisters, the witches who settled the island back in 1692.

Now, with the help of two other strong, gifted women - and the nightmares of the past haunting her every step - she must find the power to save her home, her love...and herself.

Powerful Starting Over Novel

A powerful story of Nell, a woman starting over from an abusive relationship. Learning how to make friends and trust in herself again. The magic aspect is used wonderfully as a catalyst, however the relationships developed between the women and male protagonist are beautifully written that their individual personalities make sense for the storyline and their own back stories, without taking away from the emotional struggles Nell copes with and conquers.

Great Book! Really enjoyed listening to it!

When Nora Roberts writes books with a supernatural twist they are always brilliant and this book is no exception. I really enjoyed the plot and the characters were compelling and interesting.

I'm really looking forward to listening to the other 2 books in this series.

This audio book makes me want to be a witch! I love the story. Which involves a strong main female lead, intent on getting away from love gone wrong. Prince charming was as is always a snake in disguise. She eventually comes to Three sister's island. A place birthed by witches. here she finds her elemental sisters, her place and her power to take on her snake and demons. she also finds her knight with a blue badge. he is drawn to her the moment he sees her and will go to any length to show her, he will be her lover. and that she is protected and he won't let any one hurt her ever again.
