Mystic Binds

By Evelyn Locke

Arden Holly Elwood is over it.

A disillusioned former teacher, Arden now owns and operates Mystic Island Coffee in Cape May, NJ. Life is busy and simple, and she prefers it that way. But when she comes out to find that one of her cafe tables has been the scene of a Halloween summoning ritual gone awry, Arden is forced to confront the supernatural.

Celyn Brynmor is just getting started.

A bored, less-than-friendly entity, Celyn is summoned by a group of Wine Moms vacationing in Cape May who used a spell they found on Instagram to "talk to ghosts." Upon finding himself in the human world and tethered to an unwitting mortal woman, he makes the best of the situation by being equal parts charming and devious.

But there is far more at hand than either of them realizes when a preternatural bond snaps into place. Arden does her best to find a way to unbind them, but Celyn has other plans.
