About this ebook

“Her (Cradit’s) talent for creating atmosphere rivals Daphne du Maurier.”- Christopher Rice, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Heavens Rise

 

One lone witch. Two tempting brothers. An island forged in darkness.

Ana did something unforgivable.

 

Her guilt takes her to a remote Maine island, but she finds no reprieve among the cold-mannered locals.

 

The worst is Jonathan St. Andrews. Harsh. Judging. Like he can see right through her.

 

His brother, Finn, is her one light in the darkness.

 

The shock of waking one day with both brothers at her bedside is quickly eclipsed by two horrifying revelations: she was gravely injured in a fall she doesn’t remember, and a crippling storm has shut down the island.

 

Her magic can’t help her. Not even her family, the powerful Deschanel witches of New Orleans, can reach her.

 

While Ana heals, riding out the storm with the brothers, she battles confusing feelings for the enigmatic men who risked their lives to save hers.

 

But her feelings will have to wait.

 

Because someone is coming for her.

 

Someone Jon and Finn have known all their lives.

 

Someone who won’t stop until they take back what the brothers have stolen.

 

 

 

From USA Today bestselling fantasy author Sarah M. Cradit comes The Storm and the Darkness. This turbulent love triangle wrapped in depravity and redemption is the first volume in the bestselling witches family saga, The House of Crimson & Clover.

Ratings and reviews

well , when it takes some explaining for you to begin to actually read it, that's a bad sign, it took 13 pages to get to chapter 1, that's a bad sign too. I get trying to sell yourself, that's what writers do, but they usually don't talk that much about them selves, at least not till the end of the book and there is what? 12 more books about the same poeple? I'm sorry, just isn't interesting enough to me, it may be to someone else

Storyline is too convoluted to understand. I found myself going back a few times to get the sense in some parts
