She summoned a familiar. She got a mate instead - and neither of them consented to it.

Avery Alarch has one day left to bond a familiar or lose everything: her magic, her home, her place in the only world she's ever known. Desperate, magicless, and out of options, she does the one thing every witch on Caerwyn Island is forbidden to do - she opens a blood ritual meant to summon anything at all.

What she gets is Felix Sukachov: an apex cat shifter, a government hunter trained to kill witches like her, and now - thanks to a bond neither of them chose - hers.

Felix didn't survive eight years hunting witches by trusting them, and he sure isn't about to start with the reckless, riddle-obsessed academy failure who ripped him out of his own life with forbidden magic. But the bond doesn't care what either of them wants. It's pulling them together whether they fight it or not - and underneath Felix's fury is a heat neither of them can outrun.

As Avery digs into the secrets her own mother buried and Felix uncovers a conspiracy stretching far beyond one island, the two enemies-turned-mates will have to decide if the bond that started as a curse is worth keeping - before the forces hunting them both catch up.

A slow-burn-turned-scorching enemies-to-lovers paranormal academy romance with a grumpy cat shifter, a chaotic witch heroine, fated-mate heat, and a conspiracy worth burning the whole system down for.

Perfect for fans of forced-proximity fated mates, shifter academies, and heroines who solve problems with a knife and a bad idea.
