Cole Bás is a sixteen year old boy living in the small town of Fides; a weak society, whose people are easily manipulated by those standing above them in power. Naive and god-fearing, all citizens' daily lives depend on religion and the church. "I lived in a small town. The few people aware of its existence, knew it by the name of Fides; the town of Fides. A wretched community controlled by god-obsessed psychopaths. We had no mayor, no officials, no true authorities. The citizens of Fides were brainwashed by the church, we were all under the reign of the Priest."

Not all believed in the ways of the church... and those who did not, suffered the consequences. Cole was the worst victim, for he was the Church's most valuable altar boy. Forced by his mother ever since he was thirteen, Cole was condemned to serve the Church, and the Priest; also known as "the Father." Eager and willing at first, Cole made no objections. Though, soon after joining, he was bombarded with the harsh, yet true reality of the Father's nature. After mass, the boy's deepest and darkest nightmares were awakened. He was beaten, molested, abused, raped... He no longer had the option to leave, and there was nobody he could confide to. Those he tried telling never believed him. Having to endure this never-ending anguish, Cole develops a passionate hate for the Church, the Father and all who followed him.

Three years later, living through this hellish nightmare, Cole's mind is now at its mercy. When all sense of hope seems to have vanished, out of nowhere, a strange, a new boy moves into town. Shortly after his arrival, he is inducted into the Church crew as a cross bearer. Things suddenly begin to change, for better and for worse.

Dive into the world of love and magic, any way you like to read. *** Sometimes love is the strongest magic of all *** Nineteen-year-old Rhia Greenbrook has lived in the sleepy town of Oakriver in a house with three generations of witches her entire life. Rhia draws her magic from the earth and likes to spend her time amongst plants and nature. Her practice is gentle, sacred, and-per her family's tradition-secret. New-to-town witch Valerie Morgan is looking for answers about her mother's disappearance from Oakriver seventeen years ago. Without her mother's guidance, Valerie has cultivated her fire magic on her own and she makes no effort to keep her powers hidden. Although Rhia is immediately annoyed by Valerie's blatant use of magic, she can't deny the instant magnetism between them. But amidst their magical connection, a dark presence looms over Oakriver. Unsettling visions from Rhia's grandmother and dangerous sleepwalking episodes throw into question Valerie's past and what role her presence plays in the strange happenings. And as Valerie gets tangled up further into the darkness, it's up to Rhia to tap into the full potential of her power in order to save the town she loves and the girl she's fallen for.
