Sage Blackwood, the 28th heir to a lineage of righteous Appalachian witches, travels to New York to break her family’s deadly Blood Moon curse—she must marry by age 20 to survive. After a hasty marriage of convenience to Julian Vance, the icy heir to a corporate empire, she hides her powers while facing his domineering grandmother Eleanor, a jealous socialite rival Kairos, workplace sabotage, and scheming household staff. What begins as a pragmatic union deepens into genuine love, as Sage uses her magic to heal Eleanor’s 10-year paralysis, outmaneuver her enemies, and protect Julian. When her witch identity is revealed, Julian defies his family to stand by her. Together, they overcome the final curse trial, forging a lasting bond as Sage claims her legacy and her rightful place at the head of the Vance household.
