Shadow Magic
Macabre Academy Book 1
by Sherry Soule
Genre: Paranormal Mystery Romance
Ghost summoning? No biggie. Raising the dead? Bring it on. Solving my sister’s sudden disappearance? A bit more complicated…
I’m Serena LeStrange, a necromancer who prefers to hide her freakishly fabulous skills from others. Only my sister makes me feel less of a weirdo, so when she mysteriously vanishes from college, I enroll at Macabre Academy to start my own investigation.
Except this is no ordinary school for the magically inclined, it’s home to all monsters—even the most dangerous ones. And after meeting an incredibly gorgeous vampire and a sinfully hot reaper, I find myself entangled in a passionate, yet forbidden, flirtation. To complicate matters, I get stuck with a ghostly genie sidekick and suspect a sinister sorority of misdeeds.
But to solve the mystery, I’ll need all the help I can get. Someone at Macabre knows what happened to my sister, and I won’t stop until I dig up the truth.
Unfortunately, some dark secrets prefer to stay buried.
Do you enjoy not-so-cozy paranormal mysteries, slow burn romances, and unconventional heroines?
Welcome to Macabre Academy, the first spellbinding book in a paranormal mystery romance trilogy!
PG-13: *No F-bombs, sex (slow burn), or graphic violence, but there are steamy kisses.
Heroine: A quirky supernatural Nancy Drew.
Premise: An older university-age paranormal academy series with mystery and light humor.
His voice sounded deep and smooth, with a rumbling power that interrupted my lust-induced trance. Blake offered me his hand, and I slipped mine into his. His palm was incredibly warm and sent a rush of anticipation right through me. He pulled me to my feet and released his hold.
Okay, hormones, settle down. You can’t lust after a hot vampire. What if…oh, no. What if he had me in his thrall! I was being hypnotized by all that magnificent male sexiness.
“I’m extremely late. No, uh, thrall—thank you,” I stuttered and turned to flee, embarrassed over my incoherent babbling.
“Wait,” the vampire said. “Why were those werewolves harassing you?”
I stopped and whirled. “Bad karma? Mistaken identity?”
Blake rubbed the back of his neck. “I thought one of them was your boyfriend and you’d had a fight.”
“Who’s got time to date? Let alone, those hairy mutts. I’d spend all of my time shaving his back hair.”
He chuckled, the sound richly masculine. I liked a guy who got my weird sense of humor.
