I needed space from Harley.
Now he’s dying because of me.
Scotland was supposed to be simple — a literature program, time to breathe, time to think. And an escape from Harley’s magic. The kind you need when love is intense enough to burn.
But the Isle of Skye has other plans.
A long-lost magical artifact — the Yellow Diamond — resurfaces. A war ignites between ruthless mages and shifters (selkies). And the same mage who once kidnapped me is free again.
Harley comes to Skye. He wants to reunite with me.
Instead, he walks straight into a magical ambush.
He’s powerful. My Guardian. The only mage who can absorb hostile magic and neutralize it. But even he can be pushed to the brink — and when a fight leaves him gravely wounded, and even my fae friends can’t save him, I realize space was never the real threat.
Losing him is.
Perfect for fans of: urban fantasy with strong Guardian x human romance, protective, powerful hero, Second-chance tension, Magical artifact wars, Fae chaos + selkie mythology, Trauma-healing heroine, High-stakes paranormal romance.
Charges is a swoony, dangerous novel where love is intense, magic is ruthless, and survival is never guaranteed.

Praise for Charges
“There was a lot of action. The is book brought an interesting dynamic between Harley and Amber. It showed that destined love isn’t a walk in the park either. … I have enjoyed the Evans witches series. I especially like how they tied the fae into this story. I look forward to reading the conclusion to their story.” – Sandra, on Amazon
“Needing some space, both from her mother and her boyfriend, or should I say guardian, Amber was lucky enough to get into a literature course. Now, she’s in Scotland, where Harley is on his way to meet her and spend some time with her. Honestly, I adore these Evans Witches stories. Reut Barak has such a wonderful imagination that I wish I could live there. The whole concept of those with magical gifts having a charge to protect is very different and not all guardians have the same magical abilities. Reut always puts her guardians and charges in some difficult positions, but this particular charge has some surprises up her sleeve. Between the beautiful scenery, the very real emotions between Amber and Harley, and all the danger surrounding them, this is a story you don’t want to miss. And I cannot wait to find out what happens next with the Evans Witches!” – C Gruver, on Amazon
“Kept Me Reading. The story isn’t over as a new conflict is brewing. I can’t wait for the next book.” – KAG on Amazon
“This book has strong, well-developed characters and an interesting story line that keeps you turning the pages. Great characters that make the story come alive. Pain and passion radiate from them. 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, on Amazon
“Action, suspense, adventure and so much more.” – Chris L, on Amazon
“Such a great urban fantasy. I felt like i was in Scotland and with the characters. Entertaining and original. Does end on a cliffhanger as it is a trilogy” – Leslie Twitchell, on Amazon
