A girl who sees ghosts. A magic out of control. A group hellbent on destroying what they're afraid of.

Maddie Johnson is sent to a mental institution because she talks to people who aren't there. She insists that they're ghosts. Just as she thinks she's convinced the doctors that she is fine, a dark-haired ghost with dreamy brown eyes rushes in and ruins everything.

Instead of going home, she is sent to a halfway house that helps people with mental illness assimilate back into society. Problem is, one of the residents hates her and the house is haunted - oh, and the cute ghost has followed her. Maddie tries to get away, but then she hurts someone using magic she didn't know she possessed. Now she has a new problem. She will have to learn to control her magic.

She discovers that the town has secrets; people are going missing. How far are people willing to go to destroy what they are afraid of? Maddie and her attractive-but-annoying spirit might just find out first-hand.

FIRE AND MAGIC is an exciting first book in the Jadori Series that will transport romantasy fans to a fascinating world that exists within our own, filled with suspense, danger, magic, ghosts, and romance.

Lore Gothica EN by Lady_Linden

A fantastic chain of events draws Sara-a seemingly ordinary corporate worker-into a hidden world of vampires, magic, and ancient rituals. It's a story set right beside our everyday lives, yet one that defies all conventions. Throughout this novel, I pose questions that I hope will stay with you, waiting for your own answers: Where does care end, and manipulation begin? Can relationships with more than one person remain genuine and honest? Is it possible to live two completely different lives at once? What is destiny-and alongside it, does free will truly exist? And finally: is eternity a blessing, or a curse? This is a romance in which intimacy plays a vital role-not as a pretext, but as a language of closeness, desire, and truth about the characters themselves. I wouldn't call it "smut," though it does include vivid, intense scenes of passion. If these questions intrigue you, and if you enjoy stories where magic intertwines with the everyday, I warmly invite you to read along. New parts are released every Saturday evening. LL

The Cursed Prince by 00reader6002

In a kingdom where curses are more than mere fairy tales, an ancient castle stands hidden behind walls of dark thorns, forgotten by all but the bravest and the most foolish. For within those shadowed halls slumbers a prince cursed by his own heart's betrayal. Once a ruler feared for his power and beauty, he now lies in a spellbound sleep, imprisoned by a vengeful sorceress who demanded a price for his cruelty: eternal rest, unless someone awakens him and binds their fate to his. Mira has never believed in fairy tales. Life in her village is one of harsh reality, where survival depends on wit and willpower. But when her family's future hangs in the balance, she's driven to the one place her people have always feared. Rumors of a sleeping prince and a curse that can be broken are all she has to go on, yet desperation leaves her no choice. But awakening the prince sets a far greater plan in motion, and the darkness she thought she'd face is only the beginning. Now, bound to a prince whose shadows dance with danger and desire, Mira must learn to navigate a world of magic, betrayal, and a fate that pulls them both toward something neither can escape. The only question is, who will break first-the girl with fire in her veins or the prince whose heart has long since turned to stone?

A Touch of Magic by Sarel303

"Usually innocents like you have time to grow into their magic before they have to break the rules. You don't have that time, Minta. Please believe me, you need to be ready. I'm risking everything to make you ready." I stopped and searched his eyes for further explanation, and there was a near moment of clarity before Edgar looked away, releasing me gently. "Risk what, Edgar?" A Touch of Magic... Minta has a choice; she can turn away from magic or embrace it. Desperate for a destiny, it's a no brainer. Guided by the cat who's been following her around, and her dead aunt's sidekick Gladys Jones, Minta begins by fixing problems with bullies, and finding Prince Charming for her b.f.f. Who'd of thought there were so many Cinderella's in need of makeovers? It's not long before Minta wants change her own romantic fortunes too (it's worked for everyone else). But life is never that simple and as Minta grapples with her future, there are others trying to stop her from having one. But who and why? Minta hasn't a clue. Though she does have her suspicions about the cat... Eventually, sacrificing her own (and very human) desires to follow her path, Minta's destiny becomes clear; this is a story of self-belief and resolution, first crushes & love (and the journey towards grasping the difference). Mostly though, this is a book about magic. Cover kindly made by @alessandra
