Desperate to take up her grandmother's mantle and become the island's witch, Avery Roe will do anything to escape her mother's house--including striking up a relationship with a Polynesian whaler who claims he can break her mother's binding spell. Set in nineteenth-century New England, this well-executed blend of romance, historical fiction, and magic will enchant fans of the subgenre.
