Up till now, ‘Ghosting’ meant blocking someone on Twitter. Up till now, anything magical only happened on Netflix. But now? Nuh-uh…Ghosts are actually real? “Absolutely!” says the eccentric old bat living in a mansion in the middle of nowhere. She’s older than dirt, rich as Bezos... and my grandmother. My grandmother? What? Mom & Dad told me she died years before I was born!Here’s what the hell happened to my life. FML to be exact…A few days ago Mom & Dad lost their minds about me getting kicked out of school (again). But THIS time they cut me off. The cute little one bedroom in NYC—gone. The gold plated Amex? Buh-bye. “You’re 22, Kiera and it’s high time you learned a few things about your life!” Mom said, just before BANISHING me to some po-dunk city up north to ‘look after your grandmother’.I didn’t even know the ancient biddy existed until then. WTF is up with that? And what’s up with her house? As soon as I show up, crazy things start. Some tricky housekeeper who I’ve never seen, keeps tidying my room. I hate other people touching my stuff!Then there’s some sneaky little boy screwing with my Nikon camera. WTF? Why does his selfies look so weird? When I see them, he’s all blurry and faded, but everything else is sharp and normal looking. It’s enough to give you the creeps. On top of all that, every night there’s moaning and groaning (and NOT the good kind) from the hallway, and when I go to check…there’s nothing there. When my GM (no way...no freaking way—I’m calling my Grand Mother, ‘Nana’) tells me that I have to take over the family business...then INFORMS me of just what the family business is... Oh boy.Ghosts are real, okay?And some of them get stuck here, okay?And now it’s my job to get them over to the other side?Really?Oh...cuz if I don’t...you know...end of the world stuff will happen.

First in a new series by Bestselling author Michelle DoreyWhy did she listen to that old hag in the bar? Big mistake. Wandering, lost in a dark forest, searching for some magical pond in Ireland was insane! First prize was an all expense trip to Ireland! But when she takes her trip, odd occurrences morph into batshit crazy. That elderly woman at the bar nagged Bernadette to visit a ‘special spot’ in the woods near the inn she was staying at. “Ah, your song is a thing of beauty,” she said. “Sing it under a full moon and wondrous things will happen for you.” No biggie; those woods were right at the back of the hotel, and that ‘Moon Pond’ she talked about was just a short jaunt away. Her walk in the woods was spooky as hell, but when she arrived at the Moon Pond… oh boy… Out of nowhere Lugh appears. Tall, insanely gorgeous and completely out of his mind. He thinks he’s an ancient Irish god? Sure he’s got a chiseled body. He’s also walking around the woods stark naked. This is so not good. When his oldest friend steps out of the underbrush, things take a magical turn. For real. Angus says he’s some sort of Fae god, and his spells and conjuring back that up. Wait. What? Together, the two of them show Bernadette that yes, magic is real.Bernadette is going to find out that awakening the gods comes at a price. After they put some clothes on, they explain to her that a battle is coming, and the fate of the universe itself depends on the outcome.And whether or not she wants to be a part of it, Bernadette has a role to play.
