White Witch Magic Kentucky Haints #2

We need peace in the valley, y'all.City girl and unpracticed witch Lorena Mills never dreamed she'd be living in a small Appalachian town in the backwoods of Kentucky, but here she is. Mated to a handsome, brash, and sometimes aggravating Lycan named Deacon Kelley, she's slowly becoming a better witch and more of a backwoods kind of gal.Lorena's job in the town of Blue Ditch is to study the creatures known as Wolvites--once thought to be feral, mindless beasts, now known to have human forms--in an effort to advance science and magic. However, when Lorena is kidnapped by the nefarious witch Neala, who once tried to destroy Deacon's family, she discovers she doesn't know nearly enough about either subject. Neala wants Lorena to cure her Wolvite mate Dafydd of a quick-killing virus that is ravaging their species: except, there is no cure. Lorena has to find one, and fast, or the Wolvites will slaughter Deacon's family.Forced to work with the Wolvites, Lorena learns about their culture and gains sympathy for them, thanks to a kinder, gentler, diplomatic Wolvite named Kendrick who would like to see an end to the violence. Lorena would love to facilitate peace between the Wolvites and Lycans, but is such a thing even possible?If she wants to keep Deacon--and his family, and the entire town of Blue Ditch--safe, she's going to have to find a way. Good thing her powers may be stronger than she ever imagined...
