I have always been a fan of Wiccan stories since I first watched the movie `The Craft'. I also watched the TV series in the late 90's to early 2000's `Charmed' which is about the witch sisters and their power of three.This story is like one of the episodes of Charmed as it talks about love potions, witch covens, cat familiars, and other trinkets of magic and witchcraft. While reading the book, I can actually see in my mind the triquetra knot symbol - it is a three-pointed symbol representing three-way unity with a circle running over it representing eternity. This is one of the many witch themed books I have read but this book stirred up memories of the TV program I liked before.Very much clear in this book, though, is the love story of Aislinn and Jericho.Aislinn thought the love of her life is dead. As she is a very beautiful woman, she can have relationships with others of her kind but there is no one she wants but Jericho. (I suppose this is true love calling.) A few days before Valentine's Day, Aislinn felt a tingling but familiar feeling that only Jericho evokes in her. And lo and behold, when she followed this, there is the very man standing outside her door, his back to her seemingly looking for someone. Aislinn is actually that 'someone' Jericho is looking for, his long-lost love.I like the story's idea. I like the premise of two lovers who lost each other, found each other again and that they are also a witch and a warlock in love. Their love for each other never wavered even if they circumstances forced them to live without each other for a long time. The steamy scenes of the two are also electric and stimulating. They can't get enough of each other as they have to make up for the years they spent apart. This seemed like a fantasy contemporary story where there are good witches who protect the people and bad witches who destroy other witches for power. But definite in the story is it being a romance as it focuses on Aislinn and Jericho's love for each other.For the story alone, I'm solved.On the other hand, I wish Aislinn see herself in the mirror and don't praise herself. Sure, she is beautiful but I think, it is more effective if the praising will come from other characters like Darius or Jericho. By praising herself, she came out a little proud.Another point is that it was not able to close some plot lines it opened in the story. There is discussion but there is no resolution made which means the story is still open for a new adventure and it depends on the reader's imagination on how it is going to end.  If you look at it that way, it is good for the mind, I think.In summary, I enjoyed the premise, the plot line and the love story. There are still some points in this story to cover and improve but all in all, it is good.
