Caitlin isn't your normal being. She lives in a realm where magic is outlawed and those who practice it are hunted down to be publicly executed. No matter whether you obtain the powers by accident, are born with them or cursed you must die.

Caitlin was born with another voice in her head, guiding her from task to task - a seemingly kind voice. But as the years went by that voice grew to care for her but his twisted methods to protect her brought destruction upon many. The darkness is both a blessing and a curse and soon it may consume her.

But her own darkness isn't all she has to worry about. Escaping her home village, she is hunted across the realm and we all know what happens to the dark mages who are caught by the hunters.

They are tortured and burned to ash.

Can Caitlin overcome her darkness? Escape the hunters? Survive the harsh world around her? Can she go from Darkness to Light?

Let our tale unfold.

"I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home. On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island. They even have a name for their kind: Shardless. Taly is one of the lucky humans. Taken in by a fey noble and his family, she's lived a good life, surrounded by people she loves. But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.

It's over. Or so she tells herself. You see, Sydney is magic. First that blinding rage when she goes into battle, then her strange ability to go ignored when she doesn't want people looking, and now, suddenly, she's starting to see magic, the ebb and flow and current of it like brushstrokes on Van Gogh's canvas. And if her grandfather's whispered, cryptic words are right, somehow all of these are meant to meld together to make...what? Well, she'd better find out, if she wants to make sure the magic is hers to control and hers alone. Not, of course, that anyone's making that easy.

(THE SERIES BELONGS TO PENELOPE DOUGLAS) 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝟏 To the new Horsemen and Cowgirls, Devil's Night is more than a tradition; it's in their blood. Under the cloak of darkness, they become echoes of their parents-driven by the same unquenchable thirst for danger, power, and control. The night is their playground, where rules are shattered, and the thrill of the forbidden pulses through their veins. Like their parents before them, they revel in the chaos, the secrecy, and the seductive pull of fear that only the darkness can provide. They are the heirs to a legacy of rebellion, a fire that can never be extinguished-born to rule the night and continue what their parents began. In their hands, Devil's Night is a ritual, a rite of passage where the past and present collide, leaving behind a trail of whispers, shadows, and the unmistakable scent of sin. *** 𝑰𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒆 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒚𝒔𝒐𝒏, my Little Ballerina. She used to be mine, whether she knew it or not. That night-Devil's Night-changed everything for her. She looked at me with those terrified eyes, and yeah, maybe I broke something in her. But I never intended to fix it. I don't regret what happened. Why should I? She can try to run from it, from me, but we both know she'll never really escape. Not from what I did, and definitely not from who I am. She's still mine. Always was, always will be. *** 𝑴𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒊. He was the shadow I could never escape, no matter how far I ran. That night-Devil's Night-he shattered everything. What he did... I'll never forget. I see it every time I close my eyes. He's maddening, dangerous, and completely unapologetic. I wish I could hate him, but part of me is still caught in his web, trapped by the past we share. He never let me go. And maybe, deep down, I'm afraid he never will.
