Allegra Gordon knew there was much she could learn from Faith Hale. From the moment she met the esteemed writer and feminist icon on the campus of New York's Abigail Stone College, Allegra understood that Faith would be a force in her life, one that would wrench the best work from her and encourage her to lay her soul bare. The relationship that evolved would simultaneously be the most liberating and most shattering Allegra ever encountered. And it would change both women in profound ways.

Linda Kelleher, or Lilou, faces a dilemma. She is a regular Pittsburgh girl, growing up in the beautiful Shadyside neighborhood. She looks up to her older sister, tries to meet her mothers expectations and loves to study math with her father. Only something is never quite right. No matter how hard she tries to lead a regular life, the world of sorcery and magic has a claim on her: Lilou comes from a powerful family of witches.

A political storm erupts when Claire Deveraux, a deaf employee of the U.S. Embassy in France, is abducted at a conference in Rome. The kidnapper, Franco Lazzari, is a wealthy pharmacist who has been scouring Italy for the perfect wife. Unable to hear, and with time against her, Claire must use all of her wits to escape Lazzari’s remote home in the Italian countryside.

Work. That's all I do. After my best friend betrayed me, that's all I can do. I'm trying to nail a massive contract. One that'll put my company ahead of the rest. But, of course, he's a traditionalist. My assistant says I need a fiancée. Someone that makes me look good in a commitment. Except, I don't date. And I don't intend to start. So a fake fiancée it is. What I didn't expect were her legs. Or her poise. Or her perfection. And now? I can't keep my eyes off her.

Lilou is a witch. Now what? Having been initiated into the craft by her French grandmother, Lilou returns to Pittsburgh without a plan. Magic is of little help when dealing with a divorce. Nor does it help in her everyday job as an accountant. The only lifeline to her magical abilities is Josh, Lilou’s house-elf or a domovoy, as he likes to be called. Josh leads Lilou on a journey of self-discovery and helps her understand the parallel universe of household helpers.

If you try to ignore it for too long, magic might just catch up with you. What happens when everyday life collides with the generational memory of witchcraft? Lilou learns it the hard way. After choosing accounting over witchcraft, Lilou is finally at peace. She earnestly leads a normal life: she is a wife, a mother, and an ambitious employee at a prestigious firm, trying to break the glass ceiling. Only the occult is all around her. During a moment of crisis, Lilou meets a domovoy, a hobgoblin who lives in her home and claims to protect her from harm.
