"What the hell?" I took a step closer to the mirror, staring at my reflection in disbelief. The person looking back was still me, but at the same time it wasn't. I had the same thick, dark, curly hair. The same hazel eyes. The same olive skin with a light dusting of freckles (ugh) scattered across the bridge of my nose. But my curls were now streaked with highlights. And not the subtle, golden-brown ones that sometimes appeared during the summer. No, these were an aggressive, dazzling blond that went from the roots of my hair all the way to the tips. It looked like I had spent a full day getting my hair done in some upscale salon. Never mind that I had never set foot in such a place since the day I was born. My eyes appeared somehow wider and more luminous. The colour brighter, my eyelashes darker up against them. And, when I looked closely, my pupils seemed to be slitted almost like a cat. I looked down at my body. My skinny arms-which had always refused to gain any definition no matter how hard I exercised-were lined with flat, wiry muscles. My bony shoulders were now curved and smooth. My scrawny legs were toned like a dancer. I reached down and lifted my shirt, revealing two subtle lines running vertically down my perfectly flat stomach, hinting at the rock-hard abs underneath. My whole body was rippling with strength. Like liquid steel.

Oriane Moore, the new addition to the Diana Mist College, recently discovered that she is a witch. Or more specifically, a so-called 'elemental'. It's changed her life completely. Aside from the usual hocus pocus, hexes, and talking pets, Oriane, like her fellow classmates, is supposed to have control over at least one of the affinities: Fire. Water. Air. Clay. Energy. It's bad enough being the new girl in town, but to make things worse, she hasn't discovered her affinity yet. Which makes her... pretty much human in a school full of the supernatural. While she tries to come to terms with her new identity, an imminent threat lurks in the corners of the serenely composed school. Life is tough at 'Mystic High'! Highest Ranking: #7 on Paranormal 'Hot' List Contains: Implied Student-Teacher Romance, Implied Violence © Ivana Keynes. All rights reserved. January 2015.

But a surprise invitation to join the exclusive STAR Academy opens a window to her unknown origins, making her ponder... What if space is where she belongs? Mystified by the leadership trio known as the O'Donnells, as well as the reason they brought her on board, Yalena stumbles onto an alarming secret. Pulled deeper into the mystery by the commander's son, she will find that some riddles can be hard to walk away from-especially if she is the one holding the answers.

'If there is one thing that we must all learn, it is that the creature called Fate is never wrong. It can lead us places we never imagined, never intended to go, and it guides us right to where we belong. Running from it is futile as it will always catch up to you in the end, demanding to be heard. You must learn to face it head on and realize that fate is neither good nor bad, it just is.' *** We all have secrets, but one in particular that Iris Montgomery hides is something that is far to dangerous to ignore. It causes hate, fear and destruction, which is why she decides to run from it all. She figures that if she runs from who she truly is, then she can't harm anyone. Little does she know that Fate is something she can't ignore, because it will always find a way to show her what it has in store for her. *** This is one of those stories that you can laugh, cry, scream (at me, probably), and just enjoy a good story. ROMANCE, WEREWOLF, FANTASY, ACTION, ADVENTURE, and HUMOR. ***NOT a Cliche! Give it a shot!*** Reviews: "...a compelling, gut-wrenching, powerful story; keep up the great work!" "Love the book. One of my favorites!" "...I can't seem to get enough!"

An ancient evil is rising - and only Constantine may have the power needed to fight it. Along with a brash warrior and a too-perceptive scholar, Constantine begins to unravel secrets of a prophecy foretelling the end of the world.
