Guardians

Magic was supposed to stay in books. Now I’m the human witches are after.

I’m good at burying things: my past, a pen name no one knows about, building myself up from nothing after getting expelled last year. Until I go out running in a storm and a stranger saves my life with magic that shouldn’t exist, and then disappears.

When I see him again, I know I should stay away. Yet the way Harley looks at me pulls me in. He’s brilliant, distant, and hiding dangerous magic that can destroy us both.

But the truth about witches, magic and the fae from my secret novels arrives too late. When the kidnappers come for me, my survival depends on outsmarting witches without any magic of my own.

Perfect for readers who love:
– magical suspense
– a human woman who outsmarts witches
– destined love
– adventure
– magical underworld
– heroine with dark past
– witches, fairies and fae

“There is a lot of adversity going on on in Amber’s life, some magical, others normal high school angst; such as bullying and sexual shaming. This story has something for everyone to like ! 5✨’s” – Diana Paige on Goodreads

“I absolutely love this book. It is so good. I love that Amber is such a strong character and she manages to to overcome a lot. This is a wonderfully written book. I can’t wait to Red the next one.” – Doris scales on Amazon

“The plot draws you in so that you can’t put the book down because you need to know what will happen next. I can’t wait for the next book!” Jennifer C. M on Amazon

“The protagonist—wow. She’s messy, real, a little broken, and fighting like hell just to move forward. And same, honestly. I felt every moment of her trying to outrun a past people won’t let her forget, hiding behind a pen name, keeping secrets because the truth is just too heavy. It wasn’t just a story about magic—it was about trauma, survival, and not letting people define you by your worst moment…You know I’m a sucker for the whole “guy with a secret and dangerous power” trope.” – Rebel’s Review on Goodreads 

“The writing of these stories just pulls me in and won’t let go until the very last word.” – C. Gruver on Amazon

“Guardians is great! This book has a lot going on, magic, a little mystery and lots of emotion. Amber is going through a lot when she meets Harley and is immediately spellbound by him. Harley has secrets, but so does Amber. He says they are meant to be together, but they have some problems. I do not want to give away the ending, but I will say that the story can end here. You will probably want the next book when it comes out, though, to continue the story. Overall, I really enjoyed it and recommend it.” – Aria96 on Amazon
