When seventeen-year-old necromancer Sapphire Sweetman befriends the spirit of Mona Delaney, she thinks all of her problems have been solved. Mona proves to be very useful when it comes to propelling her up the social ladder at school and dishing out haunting - and sometimes frighteningly cruel - punishments to those that Saffy deems deserving, but soon she begins to realize that Mona isn't quite who she says she is. People across the county are vanishing without a trace, and when Mona demands a sinister favour in return for her loyalty, Saffy's world is upended completely. The options are clear: comply, or become subject to the rage of a spirit who is far more powerful than she first seemed. Highest chart positions: #12 in Paranormal

Set in an alternate universe, where the heroes of the Marvel universe are not Avengers but normal students at Violet Hill Community College, comes a story about love, tragedy, and magic. Sarai Rizkallah has always been defined by what has happened to her. She was left an orphan in Beirut, Lebanon, at age twelve. She wandered the streets of the capital city for almost four years, struggling to survive. After showing away on a cargo ship, she was discovered and taken in by the captain of that ship. Hal Chapelo became an adoptive father of sorts. For Sarai, her life has been one tragedy after another. But now Hal is dead, right as Sarai decided to go back to school. The fall semester at VHCC is about to start, and she's forced to move into a dorm room after Hal's funeral. She knows that the classes will be hard, that nothing will be the same, but she never thought that it would be this different. She never thought she would meet new friends: Tony Stark, Carol Danvers, and Pepper Potts. She even rekindles her friendship with a former lover, Steve Rogers, and makes friends with plenty of other heroes in their own right. Sarai never thought she would meet Wanda Maximoff. But Wanda isn't the only thing that causes Sarai to hesitate. Magic is in the autumn air, and not just figuratively. A deep-seeded magic that Sarai never knew she had starts to blossom, just like a romance with Wanda. With this magic comes a destiny Sarai didn't know she had. A destiny that brings an obligation to save those in need. A destiny that will change her and her new friends' lives forever. [Watt-tober 2018 project] [Cover is temporary.]
