The power to unlock new worlds. A prophecy to end them.

When sixteen-year-old Ricci donned her costume that morning, she never expected to portal to the fae realm in the middle of a performance. Ecstatic, Ricci wows the townsfolk with a beautiful scene from another world—but magic is dangerous, and her family is afraid. Still, if this newfound ability can earn some much-needed coin, what’s the harm?

More harm than she can imagine.

In the fae realm, Lela is tending herbs when a portal opens in her backyard and Ricci walks through. Gongs ring out across the land. The prophecy they’ve feared for centuries has begun—the doom of the fae. Now, Lela must put aside her dream of capturing the heart of the male next door and find a way to save her people.

Back in the human world, Callen struggles to brew a potion that will satisfy his master’s quest to open portals. When the Magnificent Menowin Traveling Troupe rolls into town with rumors of a girl whose magic transports you like you’re part of the show, well, Callen must find her and turn her over to his master. Only then will he become a full mage.

But Ricci distrusts mages, Lela distrusts humans, and Callen is falling for Ricci hard and fast.

Their destinies are intertwined against an enemy they never see coming. Only friendship and love can save them. But if they cannot set aside their differences and fears, more than one world will be destroyed.

Sorcery and Stagecraft is book one in the Sorcery & Sacrifice series, a young adult clean romantic portal fantasy, perfect for fans of coming-of-age tales, deep friendships, and good triumphing over evil. Although a standalone, it is recommended to read the books in order of publication for the best experience.

I’m a Stormwalker—which means I can use the power of storms to work some wild and wicked magic. I’ve opened a hotel in a little town in the desert, where powerful vortexes house dangerous and evil beings that I need to make sure stay put.

Stormalker:
When I’m attacked one night on the open road, an innocent bystander is killed—cousin of the local sheriff, who’s not too happy with me. I try to warn him of the continuing danger, but he’s curiously oblivious—for reasons I find out later.

The attack also alerts my on-again, off-again boyfriend, Mick, the man I made myself walk away from years ago. Now he’s back, and I have to decide whether to give into my intense cravings for him or continue to fight alone.

Firewalker:
My day bursts into chaos when a Changer charges into my hotel, attacking me with a message spell. I have to obey the message, whether I like it or not. But that’s okay, because it’s from Mick, my dragon boyfriend, guiding me to Death Valley where he’s been imprisoned by the Dragon Council.

Rescuing him takes all my strength, not to mention the wild magics I inherited from my evil-goddess mom, plus Nash, the sheriff who’s impervious to magic. But once Mick is free, he tells me he’s bound to the Dragon Council to appear at a trial for breaking dragon law. He’s already been found guilty, and now they’ll sentence him, and maybe, just maybe, they’ll let him live.

Forget that. I’ll do anything in my power to keep Mick safe from the sticks-up-their-dragon-tails Council, even if it means letting forth my goddess power, and challenging the likes of Coyote, all my new friends, and even Mick himself.

Shadow Walker:
The world falls from beneath me—literally—one winter night when I’m racing down the road on my beloved motorcycle. I tumble into a huge sinkhole, followed by the sheriff, who’s doggedly chasing me. I find myself in a cavern covered with evil petroglyphs that are intent on killing me …

From that harrowing situation I go to another even more dire: A hotel inspector who seems bent on putting me out of business. Add to this, my evil little sister has surfaced to tangle with me, and now Mick, my dragon boyfriend, is acting mysterious and scary.

Only the magic mirror, my interfering grandmother, and my new cook seem to know what’s going on, all of them telling me that Mick has been touched by shadows.

Fail the tests and become a slave. Display defectiveness and be put to death.

Monroe Academy was built to separate the weak from the strong.

  • Pass the biyearly leveling and be released into society upon graduation.
  • Fail to be promoted and be placed into servitude.

Branded as the academy null, these were the laws that applied to all but Rayah Bardeau. The Lighter with no light.

After Rayah’s mother made a devastating sacrifice, Rayah was given six years to make her required level. Now, with only a few months left to prove herself, she was still the same level she’s been since she was ten years old.

A level one.

Overwhelmed by the upcoming test, consumed by guilt, and wary of academy bullies, Rayah could only dream of escaping her world.

…And one night, her dream had come true…

Only, when Rayah reawakened in her dorm, she couldn’t distinguish if she had only dreamed of the defect from the wild-lands, or if she had somehow used her Lighter Form to jump there, and everything she experienced was real.

But only the elite ― the most powerful of Lighters ― could manifest their Lighter Forms. Right?

And what was the dark energy that lurked just beneath the surface? Would Rayah be able to soon claim the title of a lighter, or would she discover that she was something else entirely?

Bestselling author Destiny Hawkins brings you the first installment of a gripping dark fantasy where a powerless girl must survive in a society that doesn’t accept the weak…or the defective.

They said that the Monroe Academy Bootcamp Program was meant to break its trainees.

With one last attempt at proving her worth, she was counting on the worst.

The Bootcamp Program at Monroe Academy was Rayah’s last and only hope. Within just a few short months, she would have to display her abilities in front of the council and prove her strength. If she passed, she’d level up, but if she failed, then everything would have been for nothing.

The pain, the suffering, the training, the loneliness…the sacrifices…

Rayah was determined to make it all count, and now that she was able to manifest her light, it was time to take things to the next level.

The rookie vex signed up to take part in one of the most advanced training programs that the academy provided.

She knew that in breaking, it would be her last chance to unlock the mental barriers that blocked the path to her energy.

And she was willing to endure anything to make that happen.

Bestselling author Destiny Hawkins brings you the third installment of a gripping dark fantasy where a powerless girl must survive in a society that doesn’t accept the weak…or the defective.
