Isobel Carver lives on the dangerous edge of Puritan society-a skilled healer whose herbal remedies save lives while village women whisper "witch." Independent, defiant, and dangerously intelligent, she represents everything Salem's rigid patriarchy fears: a woman who needs no man, who answers to no church, who heals by her own power.

Salem Village, 1692. The witch trials are about to begin, and love itself becomes heresy. Isobel Carver lives on the dangerous edge of Puritan society-a skilled healer whose herbal remedies save lives while village women whisper "witch." Independent, defiant, and dangerously intelligent, she represents everything Salem's rigid patriarchy fears: a woman who needs no man, who answers to no church, who heals by her own power. Sheriff Samuel Whitaker should be her enemy. Sworn to uphold Puritan law, bound by duty to a community spiraling into paranoid madness, he knows Isobel's very existence threatens the order he's meant to protect. Instead, he finds himself drawn to her fire, her courage, her refusal to bow to any man's will. When Betty Parris and Abigail Williams begin their accusations, and the legendary Samuel Parris preaches hellfire from his pulpit, Isobel's name inevitably surfaces among the condemned. Her herbs become evidence of witchcraft. Her independence becomes proof of Satan's influence. And Samuel's growing obsession with her becomes the most dangerous sin of all. What follows is a desperate flight through frozen Massachusetts marshlands, as Isobel and Samuel fight not just for their lives but for their right to love freely. Pursued by witch hunters and betrayed by neighbors, they must choose between: ¿ Safety in separation or death in devotion ¿ Conformity to survive or defiance to live with integrity ¿ The village's approval or their daughter Mercy's future This is forbidden love at its most perilous-where desire itself is heresy, where a woman's strength is the devil's work, and where a sheriff falling for an accused witch means both their deaths. As Salem burns with hysteria and historical figures like Tituba, Sarah Good, and Rebecca Nurse face the gallows, Isobel and Samuel discover that sometimes love demands not just sacrifice, but revolution. A sweeping historical romance that transforms one of America's darkest chapters into a story of hope, resistance, and the radical act of choosing love over fear.
