Noreena has always feared her magic. It's not just a gift; it's a curse waiting to consume her. Bound tightly by her mother's decree, she has kept her powers locked away, convinced that unleashing them would only bring ruin. But the binding isn't forever, and with her high school graduation looming, so too is the day that she loses control. Desperate for answers, Nora throws herself into uncovering a way to sever the bond between her magic and herself. Her obsession blinds her to the growing tensions around her, and when tragedy strikes, the world she knows crumbles in an instant. Forced into a hidden society where magic defines everything-rank, worth, and survival-Nora is thrust into a battle to preserve the normal life she's always wanted. Yet in a place where secrets are currency, Nora's is the most dangerous of all. Her powers are a force no one has ever encountered, an enigma even she doesn't fully understand. The more she hides them, the more they threaten to erupt. And when the truth about her powers begins to surface, one thing becomes clear: Nora might be the most powerful being this world has ever seen. But power this immense comes with a price, and if she's not careful, it might cost her everything. Can Nora find a way to tame the magic within before it destroys her-and the people she cares about most? Step into a world of intrigue and danger, where magic isn't just a gift-it's a battle for survival. #1 in Hex and #1 in BookofShadows 06/17/18 #141 Paranormal 06/28/2018 #908 (outof 300k+ stories!) 04/01/2019 [Wattpad Picks - Up and Coming List - 06.07.2018] Cover designed by Sasha Leigh

Noreena Fallyn has faced more than anyone her age ever should-grieving her mother's tragic death, grappling with newfound abilities, and uncovering the hidden truths of her family. Now, with Zachariah by her side, no longer keeping his distance as he heals from his own brush with death, Nora is thrust deeper into the heart of the magical world. Together, they journey to a place where her destiny within this community will be forged and the missing fragments of her story will finally fall into place. Guided by her family's mentor, Nora unravels the reasons behind the heavy weight she bears-the duty to keep order in a fractured society and the truth of why only she holds the power to do so. But with these answers come revelations far greater than she ever imagined. Power, however, comes at a price, and enemies wait in the shadows. As Nora continues to recover from the trauma of her abduction, she must uncover those who seek to destroy her before they succeed in finishing what they started with her mother and grandparents. Battling her fears and pushing the limits of her abilities, Nora dives into her heritage, confronts her father's corruption, and fights to restore balance to the world of Wickenton. With danger closing in, she faces the ultimate question: can she rebuild the fragile relationship with her half-sister and hold onto Calin, or will the path to leadership force her to stand alone as so many before her have? In a tale of resilience, loyalty, and the fight for justice, Nora's choices will shape her future-and the future of everyone she loves.

Two girls, two secrets, and a boy who will make them question everything they've ever believed. *** Roxy thinks that she is in control of everything: with flames flaring at her fingertips and an equally fiery attitude, what more could she need? But when Brae arrives in the Helian Realm and sets off a whirlwind of emotions, she starts to question if her life is really as perfect as she'd always believed - and if she can play her part in a plan that will send Brae back to the Arcan Realm as a pile of ash. Alone in the Arcan Realm, Jasmine has none of Roxy's confidence or intensity. But she does have a secret - and Brae - and she's not going to give either up willingly. {Fire, Water and Air are also available as ebooks from all online retailers}

"Water pooled around my feet, rising at an alarming rate. I stared - panicked - at the palms of my hands, willing the water gushing out of them to stop as miraculously as it had begun. I only sneezed!" Jasmine is struggling to control her new powers, causing floods and fires with an accidental flick of her wrist. In a desperate attempt to master at least one aspect of them, she travels to the Brizan Realm, where she comes closer to discovering the truth about her parents than ever before. But not everyone wants their secrets revealed. Alone, powerless and, for the first time in her life, afraid, Roxy has only one thought occupying her mind: escaping Cinaer's clutches before it's too late. Her flight will take her across the ocean, but not in the direction she is expecting. Before she can try and get back to Brae, she needs to rescue herself. Despite being on opposite sides of the world, the girls soon find themselves closer than ever. --- Water is updated on a weekly basis, every Friday (usually first thing in the morning). If you don't want to wait, you can buy the complete book from Amazon, Kobo, Barnes & Nobel or Smashwords. Air - the final novel in the series - is also available from these sellers.
