Windburn by Milena McKay

Never Forgive and Never Forget. Hunted as witches during the Salem Trials and haunted by their past sins, the Crowhart women carry a deep secret and an inescapable curse. Rhiannon Crowhart, the renegade second sister of the notorious family, returns to Dragons Island and its sleepy town of Crow’s Nest in a flurry of storms and scandal. Her homecoming is not hospitable, as the townspeople and her own sisters are keen to hold onto old grudges. Not that Rhiannon requires their welcome. She left twenty-two years ago and has never looked back–until now. After all, she hated everything about the island, the town, and the old Atelier she recently inherited. Everything except a pair of gray eyes that look at her from the bookstore next door. Eyes that belong to the Mayor’s daughter. Eyes that Rhiannon keeps seeing in her dreams. Prudence Fowler has never seen a more fascinating woman than the one who glides around town in four-inch heeled boots carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. Rhiannon Crowhart is as beautiful as she is troubled. And, above all, Rhiannon Crowhart is dangerous. When their connection upends both their lives, Prudence needs to choose between family loyalty and loving the woman who is Wind herself.
