I never expected to discover that I was a witch--one being hunted by a demon. I'd taken down the demon but the price I paid was high--I lost both my best friend and the man I loved. Now all I want is to leave magic far behind . . . Maggie Lachlan is the Techwitch. A computer whisperer, able to bring recalcitrant systems to their knees with a single keystroke. But now she knows she is more than a geek, she's an actual witch as well. But magic has brought only pain and for the last nine months she's been mourning her losses and ignoring her powers. But when her ex, Damon Riley, reappears in her life, bringing in his wake a magical mystery, she will need every ounce of her computer mojo and her magic. Trouble is, she seems to have lost both. And without magic, she's vulnerable to the kind of control demons like to wield. With a curse to unravel and a demon's revenge to avoid, Maggie needs to find her power and save the day and Damon. Because sticks and stones can break your bones but, when it comes to magic, words can be deadly... The second book in the dark and sexy TechWitch Urban Fantasy series from M.J.
