Some wounds can only be healed from the inside....
When a magical artifact yanks Roslyn Campbell from her quiet life at a Cottonwood clinic and deposits her in a decaying Victorian three states away, she finds the last person she expected: the Collector, the mysterious warlock who once terrorized her clan. He's emaciated, dying, and surrounded by a hoard of volatile magical artifacts on the verge of detonation. Her instincts as a McAllister say run. Her instincts as a healer say stay. The healer wins.
Malachi Van Horn has survived banishment, homelessness, and a year trapped in a dimensional void. What he cannot survive is the collapse of his magic - not when a hundred dangerous artifacts depend on his wards to keep them contained. He needs the healer. He doesn't need the inconvenient discovery that her steady hands and stubborn compassion are dismantling defenses no enemy has ever breached before.
Trapped together in a house full of secrets, Roslyn and Malachi forge an uneasy alliance that deepens into something neither of them planned. But with the Van Horn clan closing in to reclaim Malachi's collection and a local clan growing hostile, their fragile sanctuary won't hold forever. In the final novel of the Witches of Mingus Mountain series, enemies become lovers, and two people who've spent their lives putting everyone else first must finally fight for something of their own.
