The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series
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)Complete
#TabulaTuesday
Magic is real. Ghosts are real. Eva Booker deals with the consequences as she always does. Having turned away from her criminal life at long last, Eva is starting with a clean slate in the small California town of Santa Margarita Cortona, along with her twin brother and a surprise niece. It's a decent life, even though the mistakes of her past have her scanning for threats all the time. But when her boss's young son drowns under mysterious circumstances, paranormal forces threaten to tear her fragile peace apart. Again. It can't be a coincidence that the Cult of La Llorona has come to town. Desperate to uncover the truth and protect her niece from becoming next in a line of missing children, Eva grudgingly reaches out to the only people who can help: her old acquaintances, celebrity paranormal investigator couple Nathan and Jamie, who helped countless people with their supernatural troubles in their hit web series Witchcraft Wednesday Investigations. Problem is, Nathan and Jamie left their series behind - for cushy jobs, a life of wealth and fame, and possibly some stupid secret reason they stubbornly refuse to share. And Eva setting up an investigation with them is bound to reopen years-old wounds on all sides. Forced together by tragic circumstances, Eva, Nathan and Jamie face a suspicious cult, the wicked weeping spirit it worships, and the many past and present grievances threatening their search for a killer. But can their uneasy coalition withstand an investigation demanding life-or-death sacrifice? ~Book three in the Witchcraft Wednesday Investigations trilogy, sequel to #FreakshowFriday~Complete

"But I don't have magic. That's why my parents sent me here. I'm powerless. I'm ordinary." ~*~*~ Imagine growing up in a world full of magic, being able to cast spells left and right, making your deepest desires come true. It sounds amazing, doesn't it? Like a fantasy, a dream come true. I hate to break it to you but that's unrealistic, untrue. The real world just isn't like that, for most people that is. There's the lucky few who are a part of that community, that live joyously in the magical realm, surrounded by magic every waking moment. That sounds fantastic, doesn't it? A living fairytale you could say. For most, yes. Then there's Luna. Luna, despite being involved in the magical realm, never belonged. She didn't have powers so was treated as an outcast, rejected by everyone including her own family. They shunned her and soon banished her from not just their home but the whole magical realm. Now she lives in the human world, going about her everyday life like an average person. She's left her previous life behind and that's just how she likes it. Unfortunately for her, you can't escape your past forever. No matter how much she protests, magic will always be a part of her life, hiding in the shadows, undetected but still there. All she wants to do is complete her final year of school without so many 'unusual' complications. As you're most likely aware, life never goes according to plan. Magic has always been a problem in her life and now it's back to haunt her. All that needs to be said is that she's not pleased. Can't the world just accept that she's ordinary? No, it can't. ~*~*~ *contains mature language*Complete
