Book 2 In The Beyond Series Abel has learned he is the Lightbearer, but he does not yet know what that means. He still hasn't figured out why the staff and escorts went missing. He does not know who or what the Dark is, or how he is supposed to stop it. All he knows is that he needs to find Lewin and Hazel, his escorts, and put a stop to whatever plan Overseer Iapetus has enacted. Together with his new friend Ria and an... unexpected ally, (not to mention a little handy-dandy help from Wallace!) Abel hopes to beat back the Dark and bring everyone home safe. But the Dark has other plans. Plans not even the Overseer is privy to.

An assortment of short stories composed by yours truly. Some are dark and stormy, and full of monsters; others are about far off worlds; yet others take place in the deepest depths, places I can't even quite find. See if you can make it out alive.

In this world, the paranormal abounds. Ghouls, undead, and many more dangerous creatures flourish. But though incidents with these beings, collectively referred to as Shades, are almost everyday occurences, only a few have the ability to interact with them. The annual Paranormal Sensitivity Test (PST) tests applicants in order to find people with these abilities. And it seems this year's crop has some interesting prospects....

Five women scattered across America are thrown together through a mutual acquaintance. Although these women lead different lives, not entirely ethical and not entirely human, they are united through a common goal; stop the rise of The Beast from the Deep.

No one knew what she looked like, and the ones who did called her Beauty. She always wore her red cloak, covering her face as if she was ashamed or shy. Everyday she would get a book from the library and return the one from the day before. She would walk into the woods and wouldn't return until night fall. But when she leaves and doesn't return people begin to worry, and ask, what happened to Belle? A twist of Red Riding Hood and Beauty and The Beast. #1 in FaryTale! #3 in Red Riding Hood!

Seventeen year-old spirit medium Emily Chambers has a problem. Actually, she has several. As if seeing dead people isn't a big enough social disadvantage, she also has to contend with an escaped demon and a handsome ghost with a secret past. And then there's the question of her parentage. Being born an entire year after her father's death (yes, a year) and without the pale skin of other respectable English ladies, Emily is as much a mystery as the dead boy assigned to her. Jacob Beaufort's spirit has been unable to crossover since his death several months ago. It might have something to do with the fact he was murdered. Or it might not. All he knows is, he has been assigned by the Otherworld's administrators to a girl named Emily. A girl who can see and touch him. A girl who released a shape-shifting demon into the mortal realm. Together they must send the demon back before it wreaks havoc on London. It should be a simple assignment, but they soon learn there's nothing simple when a live girl and a dead boy fall in love. THE MEDIUM is the first book in the Emily Chambers Spirit Medium trilogy. Yes, that's *trilogy* - meaning not everything will be wrapped up nicely at the end of The Medium. There are 2 more books after it, both of which are published. Check out my website for details.

When Mollie starts to prefer the dreams she's having to the painful reality of life, she's forced to choose between embracing a fantasy or the man she loves. ***** Since she was seven, Mollie Cutright has known two truths: she loves Howard Flynn and her dreams are the most magical part of her life. Each day she suffers at the hands of her abusive parents, but each night she is surrounded by a loving family who call her by a different name. Growing up in 1930's Virginia, no one has patience for a girl who might be mad, so Mollie strives to keep her dreams (and how often they intrude on her reality) a secret. But when her secret comes out, Mollie is sent to an asylum, though not before she and Howard are secretly engaged. It is at the asylum she discovers the dreams are echoes of her past lives. She's an immortal, if she makes a journey to claim her heritage. The problem is, if she continues down this path, she can never see Howard, the love of her life, again.

~ COMPLETE AND NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON ~ In the Five Kingdoms of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But with the kingdoms at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep her people safe-even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the potentially dangerous prince, Daire Niadh, to do it. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death. ❧ Copyright © Marcella Colavecchio, 2014 - 2020.
