The other nature wizards wield fire, earth, air, and water to protect the forest.

Only I bring the lightning.

My name’s Ina, and I command the elements like an honest-to-goddess nature wizard. I’ve defeated my fair share of creepy cryptids that go bump in the night, but now a monster with a Medusa gaze preys upon the Oregon coast. It’s going on a murder spree against the native fauna. It doesn’t help that game warden Vincent Garcia has noticed an uptick in endangered carcasses and blames me for poaching them.

I do have an ace up my sleeve with my unique lightning magic. The only problem: it’s like using a stick of dynamite to kill a house spider. I’m not supposed to use it, but the supernatural predator grows stronger every day. Either I banish this horror show soon, or there won’t be much forest left to protect.

Chasing Lightning is the first in the action-packed Magic of Nasci series that explores the magical dangers that lurk deep in the woods. It’s like Avatar: The Last Airbender and urban fantasy had a superhero love child.

New exchange student Mallory is causing quite the stir at London Prep -- specifically with best friends Harry and Noah. Their fast friendship makes way for a tricky love triangle in this entertaining tale of high school drama!
?
When my parents told me that I’d be spending three weeks at a London prep school on a student exchange my junior year, I was furious. I love New York. My school. My friends. And I didn’t want to leave. But after some not-so-subtle insistence about experiencing a new culture, gaining worldly knowledge, and the fact that it was only three weeks, I knew I wasn’t getting out of it.

So, I decided that if I had to go, I might as well have some fun.
Which was how I met Harry at a pub. His blue eyes, adorable accent, and charm instantly won me over - right after his lips did. ?

?And I started to think that London might not be so bad.
?
But then I met Noah.
He’s tall, dark, intense, and spends way too much time in the shower. I know this because I have to live with him. And did I mention that he hates me?
?
My first day at school is more eventful than I anticipated. A boy named Mohammad takes me under his wing, declares himself my guide to the “hostile and hormonal battlefield that is Kensington School,” and lays three facts on me:
?
He, Harry, and Noah are best mates.
I’m the new girl and bound to cause drama.
And I’ve already got his boys all twisted up.
?
I’m in way over my head, and it’s only my first day!

The war is over. Vampires lost.

For thousands of years, a vampiric miasma prevented ordinary people from noticing the monsters in their midst. Then the black dogs of Dimilioc drove vampires from the world, the miasma faded, and suddenly ordinary people could look into the shadows ... and see the shadows looking back.

Natividad is one of the rare Pure, able to wield protective magic against demonic evil. Her older brother is a black dog, fighting to control the demon bound to his soul. Her human twin has no magic, but he's got a plan to protect them all.

With the world they knew in ashes, with enemies snapping at their heels, the three seek refuge with Dimilioc, the only powerful black dog House left in the world. But Dimilioc, nearly ruined by the war they barely won, may not have the strength they need to survive in this new world. Unless Natividad and her brothers can find the courage and skill to face their terrifying adversaries, not only they, but Dimilioc itself, may be pulled down at last.

Perfect for fans of Patricia Briggs, this unusual twist on werewolves will keep you turning pages right to the end!

It should have taken Juliette a single touch to kill Warner. But his mysterious immunity to her deadly power has left her shaken, wondering why her ultimate defense mechanism failed against the person she most needs protection from.

She and Adam were able to escape Warner’s clutches and join up with a group of rebels, many of whom have powers of their own.
