After disaster strikes in Monstera Bluff, Ada Mayweather must grapple with the prospect that her magick may never return. What hope is there for a witch without magick? When Whispered Folk leadership from across the continent convene in Monstera Bluff to address the events of Samhain night, an unwanted visitor from her past shows up as if the wide gulf of time and distance doesn't matter. Ada never thought she'd lay eyes on her long-lost love Norrell Snowstrider again. His unwanted presence forces her to confront not only her uncertain future, but also a painful chapter from her past that still haunts her. Most bothersome of all, he inserts himself into her life again despite her protests, insisting he'll do all he can to restore her magick and take care of her in the meantime. But after walking out on her fifteen years ago with barely an explanation, can she trust him to make good on his promise? There are no second chances after a betrayal like that, right?
Faced with an impossible choice, Norrell abandoned the love of his life Ada to return home as the ruler of his clan. He never told her why. He couldn’t let her sacrifice all the good things in her life in Monstera Bluff for a soul-crushing future in his settlement where magick wielders like her are met with distrust and cruelty. His clan would surely snuff out the joy and vibrancy within her. Yet after so many years apart, he still burns for Ada, enough to melt the frosty tundra of his homeland. Older and wiser now, he realizes what a horrible mistake he made. When he finds out that Ada was injured in the Samhain night attack in Monstera Bluff, he jumps at the chance to return to her. He’ll do everything he can to show her that she’s always been the fire in his heart, his ember in the frost. And he won’t stop until her magick is restored and she’s her usual sunshine self again.
