Kaywen Andrews thought she'd left chaos behind when she moved in with her sister, determined to rebuild her life after the tragedies that tore her family apart. But when Adrian Vaughan, the strict and enigmatic new boss, sweeps into the office, he brings a storm of tension she didn't ask for.

Adrian is cold, calculated, and everything Kaywen despises. Yet, as the weeks pass, the cracks in his armor reveal a man haunted by his own demons. Against her better judgment, Kaywen finds herself drawn to him-until a chance discovery exposes a dark secret that unravels everything she thought she knew about the man behind the mask.

As Kaywen uncovers the dangerous truth about Adrian, she's thrust into a world of deception, betrayal, and deadly stakes. Will she able to escape or will she become Adrian's next victim?

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 Leigh

Raven Blackwood never planned to work at Cross Enterprises. She just needed a steady job, not a towering office, an intimidating boss, and certainly not the arrogant CEO who seems to enjoy getting under her skin. Gabriel Cross is every bit the polished businessman on the surface - cold, confident, and untouchable. But behind that mask, he carries secrets no one in the company dares to guess. By day, he runs an empire. By night, he hunts what most people don't even believe in. Raven doesn't know she's tied to his past. She doesn't know why he looks at her like he's known her forever, or why her presence unsettles him more than the shadows he chases. All she knows is that she can't stand her infuriating new boss. But when strange events begin to follow her - whispers in empty hallways, shadows that move on their own - Raven will discover the truth about Gabriel... and about herself. Because some people are haunted by ghosts. And some are haunted by each other.
