[NA PARANORMAL ROMANCE/URBAN FANTASY] (UNDER CONSTRUCTION/EDITING) Twenty-two-year-old Nora Del Luna is a banshee, and all she hears are the voices inside her head whispering impending deaths. Always consumed by guilt and grief, Nora decides she is going to save the next person who is destined to die-and she succeeds.

Unbound (Unbound, Book 1) ~Formerly Casting Power~
Noreena has always feared her magic. It's not just a gift; it's a curse waiting to consume her. Bound tightly by her mother's decree, she has kept her powers locked away, convinced that unleashing them would only bring ruin. But the binding isn't forever, and with her high school graduation looming, so too is the day that she loses control. Desperate for answers, Nora throws herself into uncovering a way to sever the bond between her magic and herself. Her obsession blinds her to the growing tensions around her, and when tragedy strikes, the world she knows crumbles in an instant. Forced into a hidden society where magic defines everything-rank, worth, and survival-Nora is thrust into a battle to preserve the normal life she's always wanted. Yet in a place where secrets are currency, Nora's is the most dangerous of all. Her powers are a force no one has ever encountered, an enigma even she doesn't fully understand. The more she hides them, the more they threaten to erupt. And when the truth about her powers begins to surface, one thing becomes clear: Nora might be the most powerful being this world has ever seen. But power this immense comes with a price, and if she's not careful, it might cost her everything. Can Nora find a way to tame the magic within before it destroys her-and the people she cares about most? Step into a world of intrigue and danger, where magic isn't just a gift-it's a battle for survival. #1 in Hex and #1 in BookofShadows 06/17/18 #141 Paranormal 06/28/2018 #908 (outof 300k+ stories!) 04/01/2019 [Wattpad Picks - Up and Coming List - 06.07.2018] Cover designed by Sasha LeighComplete

The Witch's Choice ( The Last Werewolf #2 )
One night, she stood outside his door, a witch, his mate - with something to tell. She said, "I'll bring Christine from the grave, but first, it's Marco you must help me save." "You took his life - now make it right. Help me, and she'll return to light." But does Daniel still want Christine back... when his true mate stands on the living track? Will he choose the love that used to be, or the one that still could be? And will Isabell follow the pull of fate, or choose the one who makes her feel safe? And maybe it's all just a big mistake, a choice the Goddess can't take back. --- Set in the same world as The Last Werewolf. This story picks up at the conclusion of the original and Alpha Dane's Games, filled with major spoilers. However, it can be enjoyed as a standalone tale focusing on Isabell and Daniel.

Supernova
Zora always knew she didn't belong to this world. She didn't even know her real name. She never met her birth parents, having been left in a firehouse as a 6-month-old baby. Zora has bounced from one foster home to the next since she was a troubled child. Bad things, or "accidents" always followed Zora. She always felt like she was one step behind everyone else trying to catch up. Trying to be normal, but Zora is not normal. And never will be. Bryce Cullen is another lost soul in the world. He is also one of a kind. When they first met it was a supernova, two stars coming together in a stellar collision with stellar dynamics. As an evil is looming, threatening to destroy the Earth, can these two outliers save the world with powers neither utterly understand? ~~~~~~~~~~~ Zora could only shiver as: his eyes darken looking at her, becoming more onyx black, and purple bruise-like shadows appear beneath his eyes. Bryce stands at 6'2" and has a thin and lanky but muscular body. Zora felt a tiny piercing pain trying to hit her over and over, but somehow it was blocked. "Where am I?" "Who are you?" Bryce asked sternly, glaring down at Zora. "It's her!" Piper said running onto the field. "That's the girl! She is the girl from my dreams! She is the one to bring Hell Fire!" ~~~~~~~~~~~ Updates every Wednesdays! Participating in: #theseasonalcontestComplete
