“A fun romp for Twilight Fans” – School Library Journal
After being raised by the meanest fairies in the history of ever, Bryar Rose is now free to live her own life. For the first time, she’s attending West Lake Prep, a regular high school. Well, mostly regular. Some students are actually hidden members of the Magicorum. In other words, they’re really wizards, fairies, or shifters. Bry doesn’t mind, though. She’s thrilled to enjoy all the new experiences of being around normal kids her age, from locker pranks to lunchtime mystery meat. Everything is going along great, except for one thing.
Bry’s dreams about the pyramids of Egypt have gotten darker and more sinister. Every night, she sees her new man Knox and her best friend Elle in danger.
“Exciting and well-conceived” – Kirkus
With no other choice, Bry plans to leave school to explore the pyramids on her own. But her new man Knox discovers the scheme and is having none of it. He wants to stay by her side, no matter what. It’s a good thing too, because Bry must solve the mystery of her attraction to the pyramids and soon. Otherwise, it could cost the lives of those she loves most.
And that means not only Knox, but also her best friend Elle.

Fairy Tales of the Magicorum, Book 2
Chapter One
I’m a teenager who can wield magic, so you might
think my ultimate in fun would be casting a spell.
Not
really.
Plus, I live in Manhattan and—since my aunties no
longer have me locked me up in a penthouse—you’d imagine that I love roaming
the city.
Nope.
I’m also a werewolf, so racing under the moon could
be my fav for fun.
It’s not.
Instead, my ultimate smile comes from what’s
happening right now: snuggling on the couch with my boyfriend Knox. To be
specific, Knox and I are wrapped in a blanket with my head resting against his
right bicep.
Perfect.
It’s almost time for dinner, but I hardly notice my
stomach growl. Knox is in jeans and a t-shirt; I’m sporting what I call my
unshreddable outfit: black leather pants and a cropped top that I got from the
fairies. Why unshreddable, you ask? Because before I got my enchanted clothing,
shifting into were form was murder on my wardrobe. One magically enhanced
outfit later, and it’s all good. I never again have to worry about turning into
a wolf and then into a very naked girl, all in the age of camera phones. And
without that worry hanging over my head, I can more fully relax. Like I am now.
In fact, at this very moment, Knox and I are
chilling out while watching an old movie called The Breakfast Club. In it, a bunch of human kids get detention at
high school. For me, this particular movie is valuable life research,
considering how tomorrow’s my first day in a typical classroom.
Ever.
