The Witch's Rite
(2024)(The second book in the Season of the Witch series)
A novel by Emberly Wyndham
A knight with a heart of gold, a witch with eyes like summer.
Aurora Silvermoon is head-over-heels for Alden Stonewood, the village carpenter, but she can’t stop herself from getting flushed when she bumps into Rowan Highcliff, the new knight appointed to protect Faunwood. With hair of red and eyes of green, he’d stop any woman in her tracks. And lucky for Aurora, when she gets selected as the May Queen of the Beltane festival, a certain red-haired knight gets picked as her Horned God.
All it took was one chance meeting with a witch in the mercantile, and Rowan is already falling hard. When he gets the opportunity to chase her around the Beltane bonfire in a celebration of summer, something ignites inside him, and he knows he wants her for his own. Until she reveals that she’s already got a lover.
But she claims she wants them both, if only he’s willing. Rowan isn’t sure about it at first—he’s never been with a woman who already has a man—but if that’s what it takes to hold on to his witch, maybe he’s ready to try something new.
