One of those people, Nicholas Rockson, seems to always be around, lurking in the shadows. Isabel finds herself drawn to Nick and to the darker elements of Shaded Falls. As she gets pulled into the dangerous underbelly, the true nature of the town is revealed.

Isabel must face her own dark secrets as her past is drawn forth. Everything she’s ever believed about her life is about to change, and not always for the better. Isabel is about to find out exactly what happens when darkness falls.

Full of magic, wizards, gangsters, vampires, imps, and some snappy dressing. All set in Wales. Yes, it’s British Urban Fantasy! What’s not to like?

I watched in horror as dark magic sprang from my hand faster than an imp after your socks. I didn’t know my name, let alone that I had such power. The man was dead. I panicked. I ran.

How was I to know I was a dark magic enforcer, tasked with keeping magic hidden from the world? Yeah, total noob move, I know.

But my memory is returning, and the Hidden have given me twenty-four hours to make amends. Cover it up. Finish the job I was given, or else. Failure isn’t an option. Well, it is, but I like me, and I like being alive.

The clock is ticking as I battle to make things right and exact revenge on those that took so much from me. Easier said than done as I deal with angry mages, bitey zombies, oversexed imps, creepy necromancers, and grumpy trolls—and those are just my friends!—all while trying to stop myself falling in love with my best friend, Kate, who just so happens to be a hot vampire.

I’m Faz Pound, a.k.a. Black Spark, Dark Magic Enforcer, and time is running out.

At least I have my looks. For now.

SHE HAS RENEGADE MAGIC – AND THAT WILL COST HER EVERYTHING.

Aella is the most relentless, determined seventeen-year-old in the Winged Empire’s newest settlement so of course when she manifests magic, it’s a renegade kind – the kind that gets people killed if they aren’t careful.

The only thing that seventeen-year-old Aella ever wanted was to keep raising horses with her sprawling family on the frontier of the Winged Empire.

But when the Winged Empire tests for magic, they’re looking for spirit-birds and Aella doesn’t manifest a spirit-bird – she manifests bees. An angry swarm of bees to be precise.

Furious at her aberration, the Empire snatches her from her home, ransacks her town, and draws her into a world that she hates to her very core.

Until a mysterious revolutionary offers her a deal that could change everything.

Now, Aella must choose – learn to use her new magic to save her family and the entire continent or submit to the Winged Empire and watch everything she loves crumble.

Wilson, featuring sweeping battles, tantalizing magic, sweet romance, and an epic fantasy story that will compel you to keep reading to the very last word. Start the adventure today!

The most dangerous being in Wonderland wants Alice, but he won’t tell her why

It’s not because she’s daughter of the police chief – Rumpelstiltskin has his own dark magic he uses to his advantage, especially when the desperate want to make deals with him.

It’s not because she has her own magic – in fact, Alice is the only human in a world of magic, which means she doesn’t have a magical bone in her body.

And it’s not because she’s special – in fact, she has no idea who she is other than the fact that she was adopted by Paul Winter when she was a baby.

She has nothing to offer the Imp – and yet, he makes her an offer: help him uncover the truth behind her best friend’s murder and he’ll help her unlock who she really is.

Alice has no idea how she is supposed to help him and he’s not saying anything either. But she can’t refuse him, even if she wants to. The truth is too important to her – even if it means forcing herself to trust someone as mischievous and as selfish as Rumpelstiltskin himself.

With the grittiness and mystery of Veronica Mars and the magic and romance of Once Upon A Time, The Seeker’s Shadow is a captivating urban fantasy mystery readers are sure to be enchanted by!
