In a world teetering between magic and mayhem, thirteen-year-old Elijah is caught in the crossfire of a lineage he never asked for.
Born of darkness but raised by love, Elijah carries the blood of Gary Smith-a manipulative, mirror-wielding madman-and the heart of Zoe Taylor, a fierce woman determined to rewrite her past. But even surrounded by a found family of witches, warriors, and the world's most chaotic dads, Elijah finds his greatest challenge isn't his power... it's his feelings for Selene: the bold, copper-haired daughter of Luna and Jimmy.
When an ancient force begins stirring in the mirrors, unraveling trust and haunting their home, Elijah, Selene, and her protective twin Zagreus must band together to stop the return of Gary once and for all. But defeating darkness isn't as easy when it shares your blood-and knows your every weakness.
A tale of magic, mischief, and first crushes, Bloodlines & Bruises is a spellbinding start to a coming-of-age saga that asks the hardest questions: Can we ever outrun where we come from? Or do we fight to redefine it?

The Boy Made of Bruises
Elias Carter never asked for survival. He never asked for the fists, the silence, the house that broke him. All he wanted was the love he lost the night his parents' car spun off the road. What he found instead was pain-daily, unrelenting. But somewhere inside the bruises, something woke up. A spark. A light. The kind of power no one else in the world has. Now Eli can fly. He can bend energy to his will. And for the first time, he doesn't feel powerless. But power doesn't heal wounds-it sharpens them. As Eli battles between vengeance and protection, between the boy he was and the shadow he's becoming, the line between hero and monster grows thin. And the bruises never fade.
The Reluctant Witch of Willow Creek ( Book 1)
( BOOK #1) In the quaint, whisper-thin town of Willow Creek, where secrets bloom like wildflowers and magic lingers in the morning mist, Luna Bellwether lives a life decidedly un-magical. Surrounded by her eccentric, spell-casting family, Luna prefers the comforting logic of library shelves and the predictability of her routines. She dismisses her family's stories of ancient prophecies and mystical powers as charming folklore, content to leave the "witching" to them. But fate, it seems, has other plans. When a life-altering event shakes Luna's world, a dormant power within her awakens, unleashing a torrent of unpredictable magic and forcing her to confront the truth about her heritage. Guided by her enigmatic grandmother, Esmeralda, Luna embarks on a journey of self-discovery, delving into the Bellweather family grimoire and uncovering generations of carefully guarded secrets. As Luna grapples with her newfound abilities, she uncovers a prophecy that entwines her destiny with the fate of Willow Creek itself. She must learn to control her powers, facing down a rival witch family with a vendetta against the Bellwethers and navigating the complexities of a burgeoning romance with someone who challenges her skeptical heart. Filled with quirky townsfolk, charming familiars, and a touch of whimsical magic, "The Reluctant Witch of Willow Creek" is a story about embracing the unknown, discovering the power within, and finding magic in the most unexpected places. But as Luna learns, magic comes with a price, and sometimes, the greatest battles are fought not with spells and potions, but with the courage to accept who you were always meant to be.Concluída

All she knew that the mythical flower was just a bedtime story-until she turns eighteen. Rozelyn then realized that her father's tragic demise was not just an accident, but a blood payment as well. And the very gifts of the Blood Rose-formally known as the Ambrosia-flows through her own veins and sinews. Now, at the age of eighteen, Rozelyn is deemed as an immortal. In her initial days as a Blood Rose Lady, Rozelyn eventually found out that some things have a price that must be paid continuously. In short, her immortality was not just a gift. It is also an eternal curse-the curse to consume other creatures' life. A curse of being a vampire. As a college freshman, Rozelyn will soon be facing battles within herself and those around her. As more friendships are formed, more enemies are attracted. And Rozelyn may or may not only be the Devourer of Souls, but also the Destroyer of Worlds. Amidst of all of these, only one thing is certain: Blood is always thicker than water-either literally or figuratively.Concluída
