Being 16 and running away after you burn down a library with flames you shoot from your hands, trying to carve out a place in the world for yourself while understanding this strange curse double sucks. Getting interrupted from figuring out magic completely on your own by an evil witch with plans to take over the world by doing *extremely* gross things to dead bodies triple sucks. Add in a pet mouse, a hot boy who shows up halfway through and amounts of emotional suppression never before known to mankind and you get a rough approximation of Max's life.Complete

Ewan is fine in Hell. He's striving to get to The Devil, to meet him demon-to-demon, to finally be able to see him in the flesh. But it'll be another 75 years. That is, until The Devil comes to him. Telling him he's got to go to Heaven to go to the Surface - to Earth, where the mortals live. Because he has a task with a boy. Given the task by God Himself, he's instructed to complete an Enchantment and help a boy who will, in turn, help him. But how can a demon with a dark past help a mortal who's already doomed to Hell? Ben Sawyer. The British boy in the southern school who doesn't care about anything but getting the truth from people and making them pay for lying. In fact, he'd kill for the truth. But then he comes face-to-face with a demon who possesses the dead body of his classmate and perhaps he'll be convinced to change his ways. But not because he doesn't want to go to Hell. **Still under construction! I would so very very appreciate it if you would consider commenting on any mishaps in the book!

Playing With Fire
"Come on Bri! The early bird gets the worm."

By escaping the prison she was in, she meets this boy with abilities like her own, but that just makes them a bigger target. There are some people who don't like their magic in the world, and will do anything to keep the kids from using it, like possibly taking Briana's best friend. They have to make what would seem an impossible journey to us, to stop the people fighting against them. Along the way, with the help of a little companion, they realize that their powers don't make them monsters, but rather make them extraordinary.Complete

"Everyone loves a good fantasy, but my life was turned upside down by one." What would you do if you had the ability to control the air?

On a fateful night, Max Walker finds himself summoned to Asterisk and contracted to Liliana Lockwood as her familiar. Forced to leave behind his life on Earth, Max begins a precarious journey into the unknown world of magic. Training as a knight, learning to control mana, battling rogue necromancers and even being mistaken for Duke Walker's son... it's just one thing after the next.

Add one teenage boy from a regular, free public high school in a working-class town, who happens to have an extraordinary memory; not only of his own life, but generations of his family before him. And did I mention his prophetic dreams? He meets a teenage girl with an even stranger condition; bad things happen to anyone who hurts her in any way, and she has no idea why. Then add in some rich bullies, a terrifying memory block, a long-dead magician who tended to dress strangely, Tarot cards, a Ouija board, a family curse, and the raising of a departed spirit who has a taste for Polish sausage. The result? Why, a love story, of course.Complete
