Satara is angry, and she wants revenge. . She knows her best friend and husband are having an affair, and there is only one way she knows how to solve it. Murder. . Love, Betrayal, murder, and witchcraft.It's 1978, and 35-year-old Satara Stratton is shattered when she uncovers her husband Dean's affair with her best friend Lilah. Treachery is far from new to Satara —and so is her deadly response. She's killed men before and has gotten away with it. Killing Dean for his betrayal feels almost automatic. But this time, there's a hitch: Lilah is hell-bent on her guilt. Desperate to stay ahead, Satara turns to Millicent Garcelle, a mysterious love witch who offers her potent spells to enslave any man to her whims. Believing herself untouchable, she basks in her manipulation. However, Satara's weakness is her insatiable desire for love. With Dean dead, she zeroes in on Chris Stiles, a coworker and her latest obsession. As she spins her intricate web, she starts to realize that while it's easy to control others' hearts, mastering her own is an entirely different challenge.
