L. E. Sterling

She'd given up on magic-but this club won't take no for an answer You're invited to join the most exclusive-and dangerous-club in town..     Esme Wallace is happy to read tarot cards for Toronto's bar scene dupes. But she doesn't like it when the cards get too loud. When they tell her change is coming. And it does: in the form of handsome, rich Julian Holt. Esme can't help but fall under Julian's spell-until he inducts Esme into his ultra-secret magic club and asks her to train under his brainy best friend. Michael Cairns acts like he detests Esme, but could he have another motive for keeping her at arm's length? Yet, as Esme's life begins to unravel and it looks like dark magic may be responsible, she turns to the lone club member she can trust-and the one man whose arms she shouldn't enjoy.
Because sometimes magic crosses over. Sometimes, it wants you dead. And once you're in this club, there's only one way out.
