Welcome to Mallard Pond (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780228883500)

After losing her father and surviving an abusive relationship that left her broken, Everleigh Roberts has rebuilt her life. She's a university graduate with a botany degree, owns her own flower shop, and is finally happy-until a single phone call changes everything.

A family history, shrouded by lies and mystery, is revealed when she learns of her grandmother's passing and the truth her mother was desperate to hide. In her search for answers, Everleigh travels to her grandmother's cottage. Following the instructions in a cryptic letter she left her, and after getting lost, Everleigh meets Jack Killian, who guides her the rest of the way to Mallard Pond.

A small valley hidden from the rest of the world by magic, the pond is a safe haven for the Darkvale Warriors, a Brotherhood dedicated to the protection of magic, and most importantly, women like Everleigh: witches.

If life hadn't changed enough for this witch, she soon finds out her mother and the Balordran Order want her back.
