Reiko Hisakawa just might be the only detective in New York that has mastered both sleuthing and spell-casting, and all of this despite being a chronically ill teenager. But her life gets even more complicated when her best friend, the headmistress of the exclusive North American University of Sorcery, drops dead one day. 

The new headmaster turns out to be a novice who's in way over his head, and now Reiko, guided only by her wit and an odd set of diaries bequeathed to her by her late friend, has to work with her new "apprentice" to solve New York City's mystical mysteries.All Rights Reserved

DELONIX [COMPLETED] by whathepeach

First day of college: blow up a lab, awaken ancient magic, try not to fall for a vampire. ●●● Red Hathaway thought the worst part of her first day of college would be getting lost. Not blowing up the biochemistry lab. But the explosion was no accident-and neither is Red's life. For nineteen years, she believed she was just an ordinary girl navigating the chaos of school, bullies, and late-night movie marathons. But everything changes the moment her skin cracks with magic and something otherworldly stirs inside her. Red isn't human. She never was. Whisked away under moonlight to Mystic Academy, a hidden university for the supernatural elite, Red is thrown into a world pulsing with ancient magic and dark secrets. Elves with sharp smiles, witches who craft storms, vampires who thirst for more than blood-and werewolves who smell fear. Here, the monsters don't hide under beds. They share your dorm. As Red struggles to control her powers, she finds herself drawn to a dangerously irresistible presence: a seductive vampire with secrets written in blood and a gaze that sees straight through her soul. He might be the key to unlocking her past-or the reason she doesn't survive her future. But something darker hunts her. Something hungry. And if Red doesn't uncover who-or what-she really is, this new world might be the death of her. Magic is calling. So is danger. And Red Hathaway is about to find out what happens when both answer at once.

The Return of Annora Blackbriar by tylerwright13

A love letter to the supernatural category and Scooby-Doo, The Return of Annora Blackbriar is the first in an eight-book series. On Halloween night in the coastal town of Saltmere, four teenagers summon something they cannot control. By morning, three are dead, one has vanished, and suspicion falls on Rick Mercer-the sheriff's son, already drowning under the town's whispers. Into this chaos steps Detective Silas Rousseau, a haunted outsider brought in to investigate a string of impossible murders. His arrival collides with Rick's search for answers, and with Zelda Grimsley, the sharp-tongued daughter of the local museum curator who knows more about Saltmere's secrets than she lets on. Together, they uncover a trail leading back to the legend of Annora Blackbriar, a witch whose name was never meant to be spoken again. As bodies rise and ghosts return, Rick begins to change. Symbols burn across his skin. His dreams fill with drowned cities and voices from the deep. Whispers suggest he carries the first of seven soul-shards-keys to awakening something buried beneath the sea. And Silas, against every instinct, feels the pull of a bond he is destined to protect, even as the town brands Rick a killer. But Saltmere has long memories, and its shadows hunger. To survive Annora's return, Rick, Silas, and Zelda must unravel a prophecy written in blood, confront the truth of Rick's birthright, and face the possibility that the greatest danger isn't the witch who came back-but what waits to be awakened.

The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series by RowenaBlack

I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)
