From award-winning author Desideria Mesa comes the glittering sequel to Bindle Punk Bruja in which Earth witch Rose (Luna) Lane's secret life comes to a breaking point as outside threats lurk--perfect for fans of Trouble the Saints by Alaya Dawn Johnson, Libba Bray's The Diviners, and Chloe Gong's These Violent Delights duology.
Prohibition is in full swing, and the glamorous life of upper-class Kansas City is everything Rose (Luna) Lane ever hoped it would be. Being married to her best friend isn't so bad either, considering their agreement to keep their real love lives out of the public eye. However, try as she might to continue her life of anonymity, her popularity as a land developer's wife--and as a successful club owner--draws even more attention to her personal endeavors. Soon, the balancing act between the life of Luna and Rose becomes a full-time job itself, making visiting home harder than ever before.
However, her haven, which once offered a place of acceptance, is growing more hostile. Her community of brujas criticizes her methods of using magic for economic and social gain while consorting with nefarious witches of the North. Meanwhile, the Pendergast Machine is running at full force, pushing his will and money all over the city. Keeping her true identity and powers a secret while posing for the society papers gets all the more dangerous as new enemies start to question her origins...and old ones creep up from dark realms.
The pressure could force Rose to do questionable things for the greater good, distancing herself from her loved ones and who she wants to be. She may have mastered her earth magic, but she still has a lot to learn about the heart...
- A Magical Prohibition Era: Welcome to 1920s Kansas City, a world of glittering speakeasies and dangerous secrets, where Earth witch Luna Lane navigates the tightrope between high society and powerful brujerÃa.
- A Double Life of Secrets: Publicly, Rose is the perfect society wife to her best friend, Heck. Privately, their arrangement protects her magical identity and a secret love affair that could get them all killed.
- Morally Grey Heroine: After using dark magic to eliminate a threat, Luna is haunted by her own power and the questionable choices she must make to protect her community and the people she loves.
- High-Stakes Magic: When her community of brujas questions her methods and old enemies creep up from dark realms, Luna must master her growing power before it consumes her and everything she's fought to build.
