Forbidden fruit is sweet… until you take a bite.Being the dud in my coven wasn’t the worst thing—until they decided to re-evaluate our contributions. Without magic, all I had was a resting witch face and a smart mouth. Neither will save me when the next full moon comes. Having the last name Byrne can only get me so far.I’m doomed.In my panic, I broke into the coven’s library, hoping to find a simple spell even an idiot could pull off. Instead, I blew up half the building, destroyed most of the ancient texts, and somehow ended up half-naked in the high priest’s office.I thought that was bad.Turns out, my stupidity unlocked the seals blocking my magic, and now I’m being hunted by every supernatural jerk with a grudge. There’s only one way to survive:Master the cursed book that got me into this mess.Or die trying.My name is Hazel Byrne.I’m a witch.And I’m totally screwed.Resting Witch Face is the laugh-out-loud first book in the Chronicles of Forbidden Witchery urban fantasy series. If you love pulse-pounding suspense, razor-sharp wit, and high-octane action, you won’t want to miss Maya Daniels’ latest adventure.________________________________________________________Praise for Chronicles of Forbidden Witchery:★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was hooked from the very beginning.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Original, fresh and funny.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was seriously addictive.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's really, really good.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Woh, I flew through this book!

Some witches master spells. I specialize in catastrophes.Being hunted was the perfect excuse for a shopping spree. Just because I was probably going to die didn’t mean I couldn’t go down in style.My grandmother called it idiotic. I disagreed… right up until I came face to face with a demon.And the bastard ate my Prada shirt.Seriously, who does that?You’d think he’d be into souls, not silk. But apparently, my spastic magic makes me a walking buffet for supernatural weirdos. Which is exactly how I ended up shackled to River.In just a few hours, the arrogant bastard made me regret everything—including the day I was born. But thanks to my little fashion-munching demon fiasco, I owe the high priest a favor.The problem?River has secrets. And if the skeletons in his closet ever break loose, we’ll both be wishing we were dead.As if I needed more help in the kick-the-bucket department.I was this close to pitching a witch…Pitch a Witch is the snarky, action-packed second book in the Chronicles of Forbidden Witchery series. If you love badass witches, laugh-out-loud banter, and supernatural chaos, you won’t want to miss Hazel Byrne’s next misadventure.____________________________________________________Praise for Chronicles of Forbidden Witchery:★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I can’t wait to read the next one!★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing!★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This book kept me wanting more.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Every time I had to put it down, it was very difficult to do so.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The ending of this book had me screaming.

Some witches get a fairy tale. I got a babysitter and a death sentence.Just when I thought things were looking up, Fate decided to kick me in the kidneys.Surviving a brush with Death should’ve earned me a break, but instead, I got stuck with a womanizer as my so-called protector. If River had kept his pants up, we wouldn’t be in this mess.They say power corrupts, but unlimited magic? That twists a mind beyond repair—just look at my grandmother. Not even the shifters can fix this mess.Now, I have to track down an archdemon, avoid becoming a vampire’s midnight snack, and dodge a vengeful scorned lover. And—just for the record—I wasn’t even the one getting laid.Everyone thinks I’m about to go down. Hard.The nerve of some people.I’ve got one thing to say to them.Witch, please.Witch, Please is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud addition to the Chronicles of Forbidden Witchery series. If you love sassy heroines, supernatural chaos, and magic-fueled mayhem, you won’t want to miss Hazel Byrne’s latest adventure._________________________________Praise for Chronicles of Forbidden Witchery:★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Love this!★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's an action-packed page-turner.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Holy smokes, Batman.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great read, great characters.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am loving this series.

There’s screwing up a spell… and then there’s my level of catastrophe.Magical ambitions of a Ferrari, but the skill of a Go-Kart. That’s me.If profanities were spells, I’d be Merlin. Instead, I’m just wasting my “French” on the ungrateful—again.Story of my life.When a spell goes sideways, there’s no undo button. And apparently, you can’t bribe fate with designer heels. (Ridiculous, I know.)Everyone wants to jump to my rescue, but I’m not here for that. If I’m drowning in a proverbial creek, don’t offer me sympathy—throw me a damn paddle.I’ve got this.…Actually, no, I don’t.Turns out, my grandmother left out a lot of important details. Every truth I uncover reveals another lie, and the deeper I dig, the worse it gets.Demons are circling. My enemies are lining up. And Danika? She can wait her turn.Because once I claw my way out of this Hell—literally—payback is a witch.Payback is a Witch is a fast-paced, snark-filled ride through chaos, curses, and supernatural payback. If you love sharp-tongued heroines, high-stakes magic, and a whole lot of trouble, you won’t want to miss Hazel Byrne’s latest adventure.__________________________________________________________Praise for Chronicles of Forbidden Witchery:★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lots of sassy, action, and drama.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Such a fun ride!★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Can't wait for the next one!★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I’m absolutely hooked on this series!★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love it!!!

The lion may be the king of the jungle but even he fears the lioness.Just to be clear, I’m Charlie and I’m the greatest assassin mage ever. The fact I’ve never taken a life is…A technicality.I’ve dreamt to be handpicked by my clan for a target so I can honor the memory of my parents. But even I wouldn’t pick me to kill the most powerful vampire in the world.This screams of a setup from a mile away. In my mind I might be a deadly killer. In reality, I would probably trip and impale myself on my own magic.However, what I lack in experience I make up in determination. If I have 24 hours to get the job done, the mother-sucker is going down in twelve.I’ll choke him to death if I have to.Wish me luck.

If you can’t kill them...You better run... Controlling the most evil creatures in all the worlds was not on Charlie’s to do list. Nevertheless, that's what this Assassin Mage must do. Easy to say, but impossible to do when you accidentally open the Gate of the Gods. Bound to the Necronomicon, she must confront much more than the ghost from her past. With the stakes being so high, Charlie’s new found ally realizes he can’t take any chances. Nigel will go as far as he can to protect her from everyone, even himself. Being endowed with enormous powers may have its perks. Hey, what’s a girl to do when the world thinks you're the greatest thing since sliced bread? Grab your copy.

She doesn’t remember her past.She barely has a future.She has today, and that is all a predator like her needs.Being part of the protective force of the supernatural world was a task Myst grudgingly accepted.

Tricked and manipulated, she finds herself in the eye of the storm.Having no memory of her past does not mean her old life won’t catch up with her.As for the shadows that were lurking on the edges of her mind…They are alive.They are coming.What they fail to realize is this – Myst has no intention of being an easy prey.

They say evil has many faces. Unfortunately for me, one of them looks exactly like mine.Surviving Hell was just the beginning. Now, I’m back on Earth, and things are not looking great—my city is burning, my so-called allies are turning on me, and my arch-nemesis is still breathing when he really, really shouldn’t be. Oh, and did I mention I’m apparently Satan’s daughter? Yeah. That one’s new.With Eric still locked in a healing sleep, it’s up to me to stop an Archdemon with a god complex before he brings both Heaven and Hell to their knees. But between shape-shifting jinn, long-lost secrets, and an Order that’s been lying to me from day one, I don’t know whom to trust.All I know is this: I’m done being a pawn. The war is coming, and whether Heaven or Hell likes it or not—I’m playing by my own damn rules now.The Devil in Disguise is a gripping, action-packed urban fantasy filled with supernatural warfare, jaw-dropping twists, and a heroine who refuses to be controlled.

The Winds of Destiny can entwine two worlds, only if they are in harmony with the Sands of Time.Friendships were tested at every turn, and so far, the bonds only grew stronger. That’s why after everything, Brooklyn never saw the betrayal coming. What was worse, it was her human friend that was paying the price.Who should she trust?Now that Alice was taken, the Syndicate had the upper hand. And instead of showing a united front, our group seems to be falling apart. So, when ghosts from the past make an appearance, it only disrupts things more. With no other option, Brooklyn is about to open Pandora’s box. What comes out of it can cost everyone their lives.When pushed into a corner, she couldn’t care less.The lines are drawn and sides have been picked.If Brooklyn knows anything, she knows one thing for sure.“It’s easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend.”

Nothing spices up a Tuesday night like a good old-fashioned demon hunt. Unless, of course, you accidentally open a portal to Hell. Oops.I used to believe in black and white, good versus evil, angels versus demons. Then I learned the hard way that Heaven has secrets, Hell has its own rules, and I’m stuck in the middle of it all.Now I’ve got celestial bounty hunters on my ass, demons whispering sweet nothings (and death threats), and one particularly infuriating demon—who’s way too handsome for my sanity—claiming we’re “destined.” Yeah, sure, buddy. That’s what they all say.One wrong move, and I’ll be Heaven’s traitor or Hell’s newest recruit. Either way? I’m screwed.The Devil is in the Details is a fast-paced, snark-filled urban fantasy with kickass action, a morally gray heroine, and a demon who gives “bad decisions” a whole new meaning.__________________________Praise for The Broken Halos Series:★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Let’s just say I’m glad I don’t have to wait for the next book.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Utterly love this series; it’s amazing and keeps you coming back for more.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very well written.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This book is amazing.★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Love this!

You ever wake up and realize your whole life was a lie? No? Just me?One minute, I was living my perfectly normal, hunter-style life. The next, I found out I’m not human—I’m half angel, half demon. And apparently, that makes me everyone’s favorite supernatural pawn. The archangels want me dead, the demons want me to pick a side, and then there’s Eric, the Prince of Hell, who insists I belong to him.Oh, and did I mention I got kidnapped? Because I totally got kidnapped. By Michael—yes, that Michael—who thinks I’m the key to bringing down Lucifer. But he forgot one little thing…I don’t play nice.Now, I’m heading straight to Hell—literally—with a stolen blade, some unpredictable powers, and a serious grudge. Because if Michael thinks he can use me, drain me, or break me, he’s got another thing coming.Hell hath no fury like a woman who just found out she’s the ultimate celestial loophole.Speak of the Devil is a fast-paced, snark-filled urban fantasy packed with kickass action, a sharp-tongued heroine, and a dangerously irresistible Prince of Hell. Perfect for fans of gritty supernatural battles and enemies-to-lovers heat.

There’s no sin in cheating the Devil. Unless, of course, you get caught.I barely escaped with my life, but now I’m stuck in a game where angels lie, demons manipulate, and I’m the prize everyone wants to claim. Turns out, being a hybrid—a mix of angel and demon—makes me valuable. And dangerous.My only shot at survival? The one place I swore I’d never go: Hell.To keep me safe, Eric—Prince of Hell, infuriatingly overprotective, and apparently my mate—is willing to break his biggest promise and face Lucifer himself. But Hell isn’t just fire and brimstone. It’s deception, betrayal, and power plays. And down here, even the Prince of Hell isn’t untouchable.Masks are slipping, alliances are shifting, and I’m running out of time. Because if I don’t figure out who to trust before the walls close in, I won’t just lose my life—I’ll lose my soul.Let the battle begin.Encounter with the Devil is a fast-paced, snark-filled urban fantasy packed with high-stakes action, a fierce heroine who refuses to back down, and a dangerously tempting Prince of Hell. Perfect for fans of supernatural intrigue and slow-burn tension._________________________________Praise for The Broken Halos Series:★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Awesome follow-up series!
