"She is exquisite and I intend to help her accept all the darkest parts of herself, because if she can learn to love her own darkness then she can love mine. And whether she knows it yet or not, I have no doubt that she yearns to do just that."Damian Lacroix knows he will never be a good man, not after the things he's done and with the demons he carries with him every day. He had resigned himself to playing out a normal life, alone and uneventful until his time was up. But when his only friend drags him to a Halloween party, he meets a witch who casts a spell over him and seals both their fates with a single kiss. She may be the closest thing to heaven he will ever experience, and he is not about to let that slip through his fingers. By next Halloween, she will be his Sweet, one way or another.Celeste Carroll is a woman who is still trying to find out who she is. After spending her entire life first under the weight of her family's expectations, and then an emotionally abusive ex's demands that she be normal and respectable, she has found freedom in the isolation of a small town in North Carolina. Over the last four years, she has spread her wings and is starting to think she might be ready to settle down into her own version of a normal existence. As far as everyone else can tell, she is living a full authentic life, but Celeste knows that she has darker desires that she tries to bury and deny because they scare even her. Which is why she isn't as terrified as she should be of the stranger who has been stalking her the last ten months...why sometimes she stays up late and wonders what it might be like to give into a man behind a mask.This Halloween season is going to be her most thrilling yet.
