A gorgon can turn a man to stone with one look in the eye. So why does she want to gaze into his so badly?

Violet Callas doesn’t necessarily want to be alone, but it’s the only thing she knows. Her gorgon’s gaze means getting close can only lead to tragedy, and she’s not interested in adding any new statuary around town. But when an illegal love spell goes awry, she finds herself uncontrollably drawn to Moonbrook’s hot half-minotaur sheriff.

Hank Hodges isn’t interested in love. He just wants to look after his town without the complication of romance. But when a mishap in the line of duty leads to the gorgeous local librarian getting hit with a love spell, he’s honor-bound to help in whatever way he can.

All they have to do is spend a little time together each day—just enough to satisfy the spell. Just until it wears off.

But Hank and Violet are about to find out that what started out as a spell gone wrong might lead to something more real than either of them ever expected.
