Jerlo wants to finish his paperwork, not search for a man who should be dead in a prison that’s nearly impossible to reach. When a disembodied voice warns him that a demon is after his indentured mage, Jerlo sets off without a second thought.

He swore an unbreakable oath to God to protect Sarn, no matter the cost. Even if he hadn’t, he’d still go on this quest. No one except God should have access to the power inside the Kid. But one man does, and he’s locked in the oubliette for demon summoning.

In a country run by a group that wants to destroy all magic, mages and demons shouldn’t exist. Neither should the rock monster that’s pushing Jerlo deeper into a trap. But this demon plans to do more than exist, and it’ll need more than monsters to succeed.

Now, Jerlo’s in a fight, not just for his life but for his soul. With just an unshakeable faith in the God who sometimes talks to him, will he lose everything in a deadly contest of wills?

“Some things are worse than death.”  

Keep your head down. Don’t cause a scene. And never make friends.

These are the rules I have to live by to survive. After Vykens, mutated and soulless vampires killed my parents, I know they will come for me next.

As an Aura, I can manipulate the light within me, the same ancient light Vykens feed on. It’s supposed to be a sacred power, one used only for good and to help others.

But if I want to survive, I’ll have to defy the Auran Council and learn to use my rare ability as a weapon.

Now I’m caught in something even bigger than I can understand, with a power I can’t wield, and no one I can trust, except, just maybe, a mysterious stranger who’s captured my heart, making him the biggest danger of all.

In this full-length, urban fantasy series, Steele introduces readers to a dark and exciting world full of magic, mutated vampires, and romance. If you like Cassandra Clare, Stephanie Meyers, Sarah J. Mass or Kami Garcia, you will LOVE this new series! Scroll up and grab this gritty urban fantasy TODAY!

“Born of Light pulls you in right from the beginning of the story and the action pulses all the way through. It’s unique, captivating, thrilling, yet such a beautiful story that I cannot wait to get more of.” ~ Amazon Reviewer

Seventeen-year-old Sarette has always thought of her life as average, even a bit boring. She does well in school, has a loving mother and a loyal best friend, Mathew. Of course, she has her problems as well—cold Michigan winters, a long-lost father she knows nothing about, and the lack of a boyfriend.

Nothing could be further from the truth . . .

An Aged Man Gifts an Old Book of Spells.
Magic—it claims—is real—and so are ancient enemies bent on controlling it.

When an aged and grizzled man insists on selling twins Meghan and Colin Jacoby an ancient book of spells and then vanishes from the carnival grounds moments later, well, to ignore this would also mean ignoring the other impossible things suddenly happening around them.

Magical type things… like, talking books, animals popping out of fires, creatures lurking in the lake, fiery visions come true… plus oddly dressed neighbors arriving out of nowhere and afraid of something that stalks the night sky.

And just when the twins think things can’t get any stranger, that’s when the spell book has a dangerous warning: an ancient evil is coming, and it’s coming for them…

But why? Colin is thirteen going on eighteen but stuck in the body of a ten-year-old—he lives to disappear into a fantasy novel for days. His twin sister Meghan despises reading anything without pictures and spends her days picking fights with the bullies that target her geeky brother.

They’re just regular thirteen-year-old twins—well, they have spent their lives traveling around the countryside with their uncle in his travel trailer.

Granted, not completely normal, but nothing at all remotely magical or otherworldly—well, if you don’t count their ability to hear each other’s thoughts, or that their parents died mysteriously, or that their uncle has a rule to move every few weeks—until summertime, when they return to the same campground… like he’s waiting for something.

But what could this possibly have to do with them?
A few oddities hardly equal a hidden magical history… right?
Can they unravel the secrets in time?
Or will magic be lost to these ancient enemies, plunging an unaware world into a magical nightmare?
