Overview
A Discovery of Witches meets Bridgerton in this magically enchanting tale of supernatural romance and mystery from historical fantasy author Gemma Bowen, the penname of New York Times bestselling author Gwenda Bond.
The Ward sisters declared themselves witches under the Celestial Order of the Crown, swearing only to do magic for good. Now owning their own apothecary, the freedom to do as they wish is exhilarating. But freedom does not come without its challenges…
Katharine Ward vowed she’d never marry, even after being disowned by her father, the Earl of Hertford. She can take care of her sisters without any useless man getting in the way. When her younger sister Robin is gravely injured and heaved upon the apothecary’s doorstep by masked vagabonds, there are signs of dark magic at play. Determined to unearth the culprit, Kate finds herself sneaking around the estate of the Greek god of war to get close to one of his dinner guests.
Ares—Greek god of war, duke in the Celestial Order, and the hero of London—has no tolerance for people who cross him. Which is why he’s perplexed by his intrigue when he finds a beguiling witch sneaking around in his library. Despite his resolve to get rid of her, the attraction stirring between them has Ares playing along with the charade that she’s there to seduce him. Caught in a compromising situation by her father and Ares’ sister Artemis, Kate and Ares are forced into a marriage neither of them wants all while a dark threat deep in the heart of London continues to hunt the Ward sisters.
