Description

A witch reborn, an immortal lover, a rising darkness-and a power she's only beginning to understand.

Grateful Knight never asked to inherit the mantle of Hecate-yet the power is hers, reborn again in a human body she's still learning to command. With a grimoire older than centuries, a sarcastic raven familiar, and an immortal caretaker bound to her by blood and magic, she patrols New Hampshire's supernatural underworld, keeping the peace between demons, fae, vampires, trolls, and everything in between.

But darkness is gathering. An ancient vampire with ambitions that reach far beyond Carlton City, is pulling creatures from every corner of the supernatural world into a scheme Grateful can't yet decipher. When a deadly attack leaves clues pointing to a forbidden grimoire-The Book of Flesh and Bone-Grateful is forced to confront a threat that strikes at her past lives...and her future.

As the connection with her immortal caretaker burns hotter than ever, old feelings surface between Grateful and Logan, the man whose soul she saved-and who now sees what no one else can. When ghosts walk the living world and long-hidden secrets unravel, Grateful must decide who she can trust, and how far she's willing to go to protect the people she loves.

Magic has rules. Desire doesn't.

Perfect for fans of Kim Harrison, Jeaniene Frost, Patricia Briggs, Ilona Andrews, and Laurell K. Hamilton, Kick the Candle delivers steamy tension, supernatural danger, reincarnation, a love-triangle spark, a powerful witch heroine, and a deliciously dark world where every choice has consequences.
