A widowed octogenarian. Her young, anxious carer. Three enigmatic cats. And a prophecy that will take them on a perilous journey; full of new experiences, new friends and a new path through the world they thought they knew. 


The dark and unforgiving time of the Onslaught has descended on the world of Esothiea and a soul has been Chosen to seek out the Orb of Tilgh. An object of immeasurable power that will either save everyone, or send the world spiralling into desolation. 

While heroes come in all shapes and sizes, this quest requires age and experience, and Florence James is just the woman for the job. Her feisty nature, resilient spirit and sense of humour are exactly what's needed - that and the fact that she's eighty-three years old. 

Accompanied by her cautious carer, Quentin, who tries to keep her safe and medicated - and her three cats who are as mysterious as they are cute. Florence must traverse the world, facing many dangers to find the Orb before it's too late. Armed only with a pair of stabulous knitting needles and her trusty walking stick.

~ COMPLETE AND NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON ~ In the Five Kingdoms of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But with the kingdoms at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep her people safe-even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the potentially dangerous prince, Daire Niadh, to do it. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death. ❧ Copyright © Marcella Colavecchio, 2014 - 2020.

Sometimes fate brings you exactly what you need before you even realize it. *** Brigid Kelly has lost everything and no amount of spells or wishes stopped it. After her Gran fell ill and passed away, Brigid wasn't able to keep her grandmother's metaphysical shop going. With everything crashing down around her, Brigid buys a one-way ticket to the land of her ancestors, hoping to find solace in the old cabin where her Gran grew up. Ireland is everything she was always told it was and then some. As she sorts out the slowly declining house in the woods, she's thrust into the path of handsome Torin Boyle by circumstance. The walls she's built up around her heart are slowly chipped away as Torin reveals pieces of himself as well, opening not only his home but his heart too. Torin Boyle has spent the last thirty-odd years living in the North of Ireland, running through the rolling hills with his friends. As a pack of wolf Shifters in a country that has no natural wolves, Torin has learned to keep a tap on his inner emotions to protect those he loves. But his homeland is dying; small patches of forest turning brown and dry. When a witch appears on his family's land out of nowhere, he's concerned that the witch is to cause for what's been happening to the land. He never expected to feel pulled into her orbit so completely. Brigid's idyllic life comes to a halt when Torin's father falls ill, closely followed by other members of the Shifter's family. The land around them - the very land where Brigid's ancestors lived - is dying. If Brigid and Torin can't figure out how to fix it, she might not be the only one losing those she loves. **Trigger Warnings - mentions of hospitals and death/cancer; loosing loved ones**

Bathsheba is on the hunt. As a witch's familiar, Bathsheba has duties to fulfill. The most sacred of these is the protection of her companion. While Bathsheba was cat napping in the sun her owner, Emilia, vanished. Bathsheba looked in all of the usual places. She checked the bedroom, the sun room, the laboratory. Emilia was simply gone. She waited for her to return all day and when she did not come home the following morning, Bathsheba knew that something was very, very wrong. So, she set out on a search of the city in hopes of finding her owner. Bathsheba looked in every nook and cranny that a cat could reach without even a sniff or a sign of where Emilia went. Just as she is about to give up, she happens upon a place that smells so strongly of magic that it calls out to her. It is a charming little shop tucked into an unlikely spot between two skyscrapers in the middle of downtown. Traveling up the path to the front door will lead Bathsheba on an adventure that will take her through the city and introduce her to Rhiannon, a newly minted witch, who has only just learned what she can do and has no ability to control it. Deciding to join forces, the two of them hunt for Emilia together. Along the way, they will overcome challenges not meant for a 16 year old girl and a cat to endure but what they will find in their search is pure magic.
