  • Wolves & Roses: Book 1 in the Fairy Tales of the Magicorum

    Christina Bauer

    Paperback (Monster House Books, Oct. 31, 2017)
    Seventeen-year-old Bryar Rose has a problem. She's descended from one of the three magical races―shifters, fairies, or witches. That makes her one of the Magicorum, and Magicorum always follow a fairy tale life template. In Bryar's case, that template should be Sleeping Beauty.Should being the key word.Trouble is, Bryar is nowhere near the sleeping beauty life template. Not even close. She doesn't like birds or woodland creatures. She can't sing. And she certainly can't stand Prince Philpot, the so-called "His Highness of Hedge Funds" that her aunties want her to marry. Even worse, Bryar's having recurring dreams of a bad boy hottie and is obsessed with finding papyri from ancient Egypt. What's up with that? All Bryar wants is to attend a regular high school with normal humans and forget all about shifters, fairies, witches, and the curse that Colonel Mallory the Magnificent placed on her. And she might be able to do just that--if only she can just keep her head down until her eighteenth birthday when the spell that's ruined her life goes buh-bye.But that plan gets turned upside down when Bryar Rose meets Knox, the bad boy who's literally from her dreams. Knox is a powerful werewolf, and his presence in her life changes everything, and not just because he makes her knees turn into Jell-O. If Bryar can't figure out who―or what―she really is, it might cost both her and Knox their lives... as well as jeopardize the very nature of magic itself.Fairy Tales of the Magicorum 1 - Wolves and Roses2 - Moonlight and Midtown3 - Shifters and Glyphs4 - Slippers and Thieves5 - Bandits and Ball GownsMore from Christina Bauer:- Angelbound (YA Dark Fantasy)- Beholder (YA Dark Fantasy) - Dimension Drift (YA Urban Fantasy)

    “This author's words were spellbinding, I was in absolute bliss. Myla was simply awesome. What can I say more? Anything demonic fires up my thriller-y mind ... And THE BRUTAL TIME produced a fiery blaze that was pure Myla.” – Book Reviews by ShaliniAs the Great Scala, Myla Lewis is the only being who can move Purgatory’s souls to Heaven or Hell. It’s a big job. Too bad Myla goes through assistants faster than a hot knife through brownies. Not that it bothers her much; Myla’s always been a solo fighter.Then comes the problem of the fading angels. Millions of Heavenly residents are dying. According to a prophecy, the only way Myla can save them is by traveling back in time, meeting King Arthur, and creating her own knights of the round table. The catch? Doing so might end the after-realms in a bloody demonpocalypse.Yipes.Myla and her main squeeze, Lincoln, aren’t afraid of taking a few chances (in between kisses). But with so much at risk, the stakes may be too high, even for them. And the biggest challenge of all? Finding those knights.Because Myla Lewis doesn’t play well with others.

    “The best retelling of Cinderella!” – Brandi, Amazon“Above and beyond all the other books in this series!” - Linniland“This Cinderella version is by far the best. I was at the edge of my seat!” - Booprican“Best of the series and oh, so romantic!” – CS, AmazonYears ago, Elle ― never call her Cinderella ― escaped her evil step family in order to build a new life for herself in Manhattan. Today, Elle’s awful past is a distant memory. In fact, Elle even attends West Lake Prep, an exclusive high school where regular humans mix with members of the Magicorum, such as fairies, shifters and witches. Although she still must live in hiding from her evil step family, Elle always has found ways to get whatever her heart desires. That is, until Alec Le Charme. Sure, Alec is the heir to the Le Charme dynasty of high-end jewelers, but he's also kind, charismatic, and has a knee-melting smile. Long story short, Elle has fallen for Alec, hard. Unfortunately, thanks to Elle’s evil step family, the Le Charme heir is absolutely off limits. In fact, if Elle and Alec so much as kiss, it could start a magical chain reaction that would end in powerful factions of witches and wizards going to war. As a result, Elle and Alec vow to stay friends, no matter what. Then West Lake Prep holds a masquerade ball. Identities get mixed up and forbidden kisses are finally shared. Time for the Magicorum to go to war, and for Elle to confront her hidden past in ways she never thought possible. “I've been a huge Elle+Alec fan for a while now.

Trouble is, a magical object called Lucifer’s Orb is limiting Myla’s abilities. If she tries to move a soul, the Orb’s forcing her to send that spirit straight to Hell. So, what’s a girl to do? Send innocents to the fiery down-under? No way. Myla’s gone on a supernatural strike. No souls go anywhere until the Orb’s history. It’s the right thing to do, but Purgatory’s Soul Storage buildings are turning into time bombs. No spirits are moving out, while millions keep coming in. Myla’s determined to find the Orb and send the innocent to Heaven, but she’s running out of time. Soon, the containment fields will burst, releasing a mob of homicidal ghosts. With Soul Storage ready to explode, Myla’s got enough on her plate without her old enemy, Lady Adair, causing problems. Adair is launching an ingenious campaign to take away everything that Myla holds dear, including Myla’s Angelbound love, Prince Lincoln.
