Holly Thorne has a normal life in Minnesota. Normal friends and family and grades. Her personality may be a little hyper and bubbly, but all in all, she's normal. Well, except for the fact that her brother, Jackson Thorne, is the world's most famous teen actor in Hollywood. He left their family two years ago in Minnesota and ever since then, he's had nothing but success. So, Holly hasn't seen her brother in two years, but now, she's moving in with him for the summer. What she didn't know about her brother, was that he is best friends with Ryder West. Hollywood's golden boy, aka Holly's obsession. She also comes to terms with the fact that not only are they best friends, but Jackson also lives next door to Ryder and his family. This summer just took a very interesting twist for Holly, Jackson, and the whole West family. © 2014 Madeline States.

"We have a new student in our class today," he announces. I see Jaz's face light up at the prospect of being in the same class as one of the new students. "This is Dominico Redwind and I expect you all to make him feel welcome." I hear a couple people in the class gasp. This was not the California boy they were expecting. ***********************************************************************************Faye Lightcaster is nerdy, sarcastic, and a witch attending a run-of-the-mill highschool like every other teenager. Her life is routine and boring... until a certain student moves to Rockyglenn High. Dominico Redwind. Tall, handsome, charismatic and a warlock. The sworn enemy of witches like Faye. *********************************************************************************** We hate each other. The only thing different is we're sort of variations off the same power. Witches have control over inanimate objects. We can do different things with earth, fire, water, air, plastic, metal all that sort of stuff. Warlocks on the other hand control people. They can also control animals but only super dumb ones. Most animals will freak out whenever a warlock comes near them, sensing the danger. The last kind of magical human is a wizard but there are only three of those. Wizards can control just about everything. They're powerful to the five millionth power and are greatly respected. They set the laws for both warlocks and witches alike. But these aren't wizards to be respected. These are manipulative and evil warlocks. Oh crap. ********************PREVIOUSLY TITLED WIZARDS, WARLOCKS AND WITCHES*************
