Working hard to build up a wall and keep people from getting close, Lena is caught off guard when she finds an instant connection with a complete stranger. All it takes is one night for her world to turn upside down because the handsome stranger she can't stop thinking about, isn't who she thinks he is--not even close. Lena is about to question everything about the world she's worked hard to keep at a distance--and embrace a world she didn't know existed.

Charmed [✔] by xxsoteria

Elise's life is never a bore. With unusual parents, mad scientist brothers, and a little sister who aspires to be a witch, who can say that she is ordinary? Just looking at her herb collection and extreme fascination with ancient medical treatments, no one can deny that peculiarity runs deep in her blood. But, who will have known that her so-called 'strange life' is actually the most normal thing she will experience? Gone with her dad's antiques, the daily fortune-telling of her mom's, the crazy inventions of her older brothers, and the voodoo dolls of her sister, everything is never the same after letting curiosity reign over herself. Gigantic creatures, people with magic, fairies with their beautiful wings, black-eyed demons, and animals who can turn into humans await her as she travels into a new world. A world that is a completely different place. A world where she doesn't belong. ...Or does she? The Emperor's Lineage of Elith Book One Featured on: Wattpad Fantasy © Copyrights Reserved 2020-2021
