A few of the local drug dealers want me dead. I’m ducking knives everywhere I go. They’re on the verge of a turf war with me caught in the middle. I left that life a long time ago, but for some reason, it won’t let me go. Then I get a phone call. Someone’s collecting witches. They’re collecting them for their own evil purposes. My digging makes me a target. Now I have a group of deadly witches after me on top of the local drug runners.I gather a few friends. We go on the offense. Only, the leader of the witches is someone I love. It’s someone I could never hurt. If I don’t fight, I die. If I hurt this person, I’ll never forgive myself.The local drug dealers aim to snatch my heart from my chest. A group of powerful witches want my head on their mantel. Is there any way for me to survive, or will this be my last dance?

They want me dead. The local drug dealers think I stole their money and they put a hit out on me. I’m not a trap girl, but I make money runs for two local drug dealers. The money came up short this time and now they want my head. I’m on the run when I meet Ridge. My heart sizzles into overdrive when our eyes meet. He’s sexy, seductive. He’s also a powerful empath. I can manipulate any object. With our combined powers we escape the crime bosses. That’s not the end, though. Someone else wants me dead. This person is more powerful than any I’ve met before. He fears the ancient magic lying dormant inside of me and wants to eliminate me. I’ve still got the crime bosses after me too. With this new guy also trying to kill me, I’m ducking bullets and magic everywhere I go. I grew up on the streets. I’m used to a good fight. I won’t back down. This new man is the very definition of evil. One of us won’t be left standing when this is over. I just hope that person isn’t me.

From the podcast host of The Witch Wave and practicing witch Pam Grossman—who Vulture has dubbed the “Terry Gross of witches”—comes an exploration of the world’s fascination with witches, why they have intrigued us for centuries and why they’re more relevant now than ever. When you think of a witch, what do you picture? Pointy black hat, maybe a broomstick. But witches in various guises have been with us for millennia. In Waking the Witch, Pam Grossman explores the impact of the world’s most magical icon. From the idea of the femme fatale in league with the devil to the bewitching pop culture archetypes in Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Harry Potter; from the spooky ladies in fairy tales to the rise of contemporary witchcraft, witches reflect the power and potential of women. Part cultural analysis, part memoir, Waking the Witch traces the author’s own journey on the path to witchcraft, and how this has helped her find self-empowerment and purpose. It celebrates witches past, present, and future, and reveals the critical role they have played—and will continue to play—in the world as we know it. “Deftly illuminating the past while beckoning us towards the future, Waking the Witch has all the makings of a feminist classic. Wise, relatable, and real, Pam Grossman is the witch we need for our times” (Ami McKay, author of The Witches of New York).

I have two clubs in two different worlds. When multiple people overdose at both my clubs I know I'm being targeted. I've pissed off some powerful people lately and any one of them could be after me. I grew up in the streets. I had to fight for every ounce of respect I got. They made a mistake in thinking I was weak. They miscalculated in thinking I wouldn't hunt them down one by one. With the help of my boyfriend Ridge and a few of our friends, we take on one of the most powerful men in all the universes. We defeated him before and killing people at my club is his revenge. I can't let him get away with it. This will be the fight of our lives. Either he goes down or we do. One of us won't make it out of this alive.

A cozy paranormal romance by USA Today bestselling author Mindy Klasky. Jane Madison's life is perfect. She's left her unsatisfying librarian job, moved to the country with her boyfriend David Montrose (who is also her sworn astral protector), and opened a school for witches. Alas, Jane never thought a couple of students could possibly be so challenging. And she didn’t plan on her feline familiar growing distracted and disenchanted with all things magical. She certainly didn't think Hecate's Court would mandate a Major Working as soon as Halloween. And it never crossed her mind that she and David would end up fighting about…everything! Before long, Jane wonders if she should ditch her school altogether. But that would have dire magical repercussions—in addition to tossing her love-life in the trash. Can Jane find a survival guide in time to rescue the Jane Madison Academy—and everything else she holds dear?

The Witch in the Well is a dark Norwegian thriller from Camilla Bruce, author of You Let Me In. When two former friends reunite after decades apart, their grudges, flawed ambitions, and shared obsession swirl into an all-too-real echo of a terrible town legend. Centuries ago, beautiful young Ilsbeth Clark was accused of witchcraft after several children disappeared. Her acquittal did nothing to stop her fellow townsfolk from drowning her in the well where the missing children were last seen. When author and social media influencer Elena returns to the summer paradise of her youth to get her family's manor house ready to sell, the last thing she expected was connecting with—and feeling inspired to write about—Ilsbeth’s infamous spirit. The very historical figure that her ex-childhood friend, Cathy, has been diligently researching and writing about for years. What begins as a fiercely competitive sense of ownership over Ilsbeth and her story soon turns both women’s worlds into something more haunted and dangerous than they could ever imagine. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
