Lucia ‘Luz’ Torres, a junior at Silverwood Academy, an elite boarding school for impoverished students and orphans, had hoped that she would finish her junior year without drama and unscathed. But you don’t always get what you want, and she shouldn’t have been surprised that this would be no different. Gabriel Karimi runs hot and cold, from ignoring her when she saves him from bullies to suddenly wanting to be her partner in an art project. Luz can’t get a read on him, and she can’t stop thinking about him, even though she has one rule—no guys.

I absolutely adore Halloween. I love the vibrant fall colors and the fun and revelry. And Samhain (Sa-win) is a major holiday for witches because it represents our new year. It’s the time when the spirit world meets the living. So I wanted to throw a Halloween party for my students at Hawthorne University. Since the Billington frat house wasn’t available, I planned a party at my place. But as Maddie sat smiling in our circle, planning pumpkin carvings and costume contests, a visitor from my teacher’s past appeared, in tears, beside our bonfire.

While I’m enjoying a spicy caramel apple surprise at our local ice cream parlor, an old lady in rags rambles nonsense about candy canes to children waiting for Santa. That distracts me from prepping my young friend Cat for her college interview at Hawthorne University. Christmas turns into creepy Halloween when all the local children, including Cat, disappear in the woods. Bryce and I search our forest but become spellbound. All this voracious casting heralds the arrival of a new witch in town. The Candy Crone.

Two years ago, a trendy diet drink called SlimPro left my world in ruins. The Contamination turned people like my mom and dad into violent, shambling creatures. Now, the rehabilitated ones are being sent home with shock collars connected to their brains to control their aggressive impulses.

The Hawthorne University Witch Series is available in this three audiobook collection (4-6). This trilogy is a standalone series that can be enjoyed without having listened to the previous books.

Daphne is everything I don't need, and she makes me crazy in all the wrong ways. This princess does not belong in the wilderness. Or, so I think. But then, thought is hard to come by around Daphne. Between flying tourists all over Alaska's skies, hotshot firefighting on the side, and raising my sixteen-year old sister, I don't have time for anything, much less for a woman. But time's been laughing at me ever since Daphne showed up. I can't get her out of my mind, and my control has fled the building. Oh, and I'm her boss.
