    Robin Wildwood is settling into her new role as Head Witch… kind of. At least her squirrel familiar, Tansy, is enjoying their return to her childhood home of Wildwood Heath. Between lectures from her grandmother's ghost and the pressure to live up to her family's high expectations, Robin hopes for some light relief when she's invited to attend a retirement party with the local Sky Hopper team - especially when it gives her an excuse to spend time with Harvey, her old crush and the current team captain. But when the party's host chokes to death unexpectedly, the blame lands on none other than Harvey himself. 
    Robin is keen to prove Harvey's innocence, but defending her would-be boyfriend from a murder accusation is tricky when her over-achieving older brother happens to be the head of the local police force and the person with the power to decide Harvey's fate. If they lose their captain, the Sky Hopper team will have to hang up their broomsticks for good, but the world of professional magical sports is as scheming as any of the covens and everyone seems to have secrets. 
    Can Robin navigate this bumpy flight and catch the real killer before Harvey finds himself behind bars?

    Reed Montgomery would give anything to stop killing. 
     
     
     
    A series of bad choices have led him into a life as an indentured assassin, where his bosses call the shots and he takes them—or else. Only the promise of eventual emancipation keeps him going, but in the criminal underworld, nothing is cheap. 
     
     
     
    With one last kill standing between himself and freedom, Reed becomes involved with Banks, a young singer in the city. There's only one thing more dangerous than a man with nothing to lose . . . a man with everything to lose. 
     
     
     
    Reed Montgomery is the criminal underworld's best killer. They pick the target. He picks the method. Then the job gets done—always. 
     
     
     
    Until he meets Banks, a beautiful singer from a local bar, and the goddaughter of his next target. Suddenly, nothing is simple. Completing the kill will cost him everything with her, but Reed's bosses aren't interested in love, and they don't tolerate failure. 
     
     
     
    The ultimatum is simple: Execute the target, or you become the target. Reed is thinking of a third option. An option where they wish they'd never been born. They should have let him walk while they had the chance.
