Xavier

Xavier Xander is done with Bayou Mambaloa.

Ex-Navy SEAL turned Bayou Brotherhood Protector, he's watched his teammates find love while he remains alone, haunted by lost friends and broken relationships. Ready for change, he's on the verge of moving on. Leaving Bayou Mambaloa.
Then he saves Lissette Gautier from an attack—the one woman everyone warned him to avoid.

Lissette Gautier is trouble.

Granddaughter of Bayou Mambaloa's Voodoo Queen, she's got a reputation for bad decisions and spells that don't always work quite right. She tells Xavier to forget her. He's too good. Too decent.

Xavier puts a hold on his departure date, intrigued by a desire to know more about this woman.

When one of Lissette's rogue spells unleashes dangerous consequences, these two opposites must work together to resolve the issue, while fighting a growing attraction neither expected nor can deny.

In the sultry shadows of the bayou, love might be the most dangerous magic of all.
