Magical Makeover by Brenda Trim

Magical Makeover by Brenda Trim

Divorce comes as a relief when you discover your husband is a walking cliche and having an affair with a woman half your age. When life gives you lemons… give yourself a magical makeover! One day I’m married, living in the triangle, and working as a head nurse at one of the country’s best hospitals. The next, I’ve shed a hundred and seventy-five pounds of idiot and find myself encountering ghosts, dragons and pixies while taking care of a sick patient. Losing my sanity didn’t seem like the worst thing to happen since I moved back home with my mom and nana. But I have to make the best of this mess for the sake of my children. And I refuse to give my ex the satisfaction of knowing he literally drove me crazy. I didn’t mind rolling with the punches… I just never imagined those hits would come in the form of magic. Witches, shifters, and Fae don’t exist, right? This new world I’ve discovered is dangerous. The Tainted want to kill me, innocent paranormals want my help, and the son of Hades needs me to find demons. Give me an Ibuprofen and watch out. I’m not about to stand by and let someone else ruin my life. I’m a middle-aged woman on a brand-new mission, and nothing’s going to stop me.

An unlicensed mage, Molindra struggles to contain her innate magical abilities, while Rubriel bounces from one job to the next after industrialization left her skillset redundant. When a contract from a wealthy merchant offers a hefty payout for a dangerous mission in a mysterious land, Molindra seizes the opportunity for a better life.

The future of Mankind relies on the Guardian of Maarihk. Can he and the Knights of Ril resist forces bent on destroying Mankind’s last hope?

In the absence of the Guardian of Maarihk, the Usurper’s venom has extended beyond the Gulf of Braag, seeding unrest and hatred for all things Maarihkish. Natharr and the Knights of Ril must overcome malice and the ramifications of Ellis the Elder’s boundless past that even Sight cannot reveal. The Rilari stand alone in a world in turmoil as they discover the tremendous reach of the Usurper’s vizier. Even the endowments of the Daemons of Order are unable to withstand the ravages of fighting to survive on Rilari loyalties.

Meanwhile, Nathan and his summoned companion must rely on the teachings of both Natharr and Quiet One to carve out their place in the Maarihk Empire.

The Earthspark by Vanessa Thurgood

The Earthspark by Vanessa Thurgood

The elements are waking. The primordial Guardians stir. Evil lurks in the shadows, waiting for the one person who can set it free.

Nienna’s ancestors labeled the Earthspark, and everything associated with it, as black magic. After she lands in the heart of an extinct lava chute, she discovers the fabled power is real. And that she’s the first one in over a thousand years to possess the cursed gift.

As her ill-fated power grows, the number of dark creatures bent on using her power increases. If that weren’t bad enough, the Guardians have reappeared, and the elements are on the move. Nienna must choose to embrace the Earthspark or live the rest of her life like a hunted animal.

However, accepting the Earthspark means her family’s greatest enemy may be her only ally in the fight against the rising evil of the Fire Witch. With her choice in the balance, the fate of her people rests on the untried shoulders of Tellidus’s second-born and the infamous Guardian of Earth.

THE EARTHSPARK is the first novel in the Comstock Chronicles, a clean Young Adult epic fantasy that will take you on a journey of elemental magic, love, honor, and family. This book is for readers who love fantasy adventure, self-discovery, and a slow-burn romance.

Witches, Knaves & Fairy Graves by Ron Randall

Witches, Knaves & Fairy Graves by Ron Randall

Getting through a day without being attacked by Fairy assassins, mages or demons was becoming a rarity for Dalton Graham. Today was no exception. Ever since he had faced down the youngest lord of House Temil, using magical powers he never knew he possessed, things had gone from bad to worse.
His college crush’s younger sister, Kitzu, had been abducted by a mysterious Fairy sorcerer, and Umi couldn’t accompany Dalt to try and rescue her, since she was now the Guardian of Kyoto, and bound to that place.
The Sensitive whose help he was relying on to discover the identity of the kidnapper, was in a city whose magical adepts were being slaughtered by a creature hell-bent on harvesting their organs. Add in a Filipina siren with powers which were barely under control, a British mage with sticky fingers, and a witch with a demon on her string and you have all the ingredients to make Dalt’s worst day ever.

If you love the worldbuilding of Brandon Sanderson, the passion and intrigue of Sarah Maas, or the action and humor of a Jim Butcher or Kevin Hearne, you are in for a treat. Clear your calendar, slip into your comfy clothes, turn off your phone and revel in the fantasy for a weekend. Immerse yourself in the Magic!
