Conspirator. Failure. Murderer. Seraphina Dovetail is used to being called all these things. As the seventh-born daughter to a witch, and the cause of her mother losing both her powers and her life, Sera has always felt isolated. Until Nikolai Barrington. The young professor not only took an interest in Sera—he took her into his home, hired her for his moonlighting detective agency, and gave her the one thing she’d always dreamed of: a chance. Under Barrington’s tutelage, Sera can finally take the School of Continuing Magic entrance exam to become an inspector and find her family. Now if only she could stop her growing attraction to her maddening boss—which is about as easy as this fiery elementalist quitting setting things on fire. But when ghosts start dragging Sera into possessions so deep she can barely escape, and then the souls of lost witches and wizards appear trapped in mirrors, these two opposites will have to work together to uncover a much deeper secret that could destroy the Witchling world...

Book Description
I swore nothing would screw up the alliance I'd finally forged with the king of the Fae. Then I was captured by his mortal enemy. ❤️ It's Complicated. Marrying the brutally gorgeous, fiercely proud, and irredeemably arrogant High King of the Fae wasn't on my punch list a few weeks ago, but it was the fastest way to keep my people safe. Then the Fae's ancient enemies strike. The darkly twisted ruler of the Fomorians rips me into his underworld prison...and tells me I'm now his bride, too. Even worse? Once my beautiful Fae king learns how I've unwittingly betrayed him, his only solution is war. To stop the bloody battle that will destroy two of the most powerful races in all the realms-and take down Earth's witches too-I've got to call in every favor and squeeze every last drop of magic I can from my Hogan blood. It still might not be enough. Because witches' hearts are meant for breaking, traitors hide around every corner, and when it comes to Fae, Fomorian, and especially witchling magic-nothing is as it seems. Taming the King is a slow-burn rejected mate Fae kidnap fantasy romance, and book 3 of 3 in the Witchling Academy series.

When the element of fire burns within your veins, the academy for all things blazing is the best place to learn how to make that flame burn even stronger. Alice Blaze is my name, and I'm your typical adopted sixteen-year-old. My mom disappeared after my birth and my dad was an alcoholic maniac. That left me being raised by my protective grandparents in the single house up the hill that people only come to view on Halloween. Apparently, our house is haunted, but I haven't figured that one out yet. Regardless of my depressing backstory, my life has always been in the line of misery. Since I was little, I always got into trouble, and it always ended up with something combusting into flames. Lighting up the curtains, explosive vials in lab class. Don't get me started with the accidental school fire. Need I say more?The last straw is when I'm accused of shattered all the windows in the entire school, but that doesn't make sense because it has nothing to do with that burning nemesis called fire. With my grandparents having enough of my constant transfers, a letter of invitation lands right onto our doorstep.I'm invited to Blazing Academy, the academy for all things scorching hot. Shifters, demons, and blazing hot witches...oh right. That's apparently what I am. A blazing hot witch. Let's hope that's all I am, and that this first semester goes a lot smoother than I'm imagining.

Pages : 258
Book Description
“Secrets of Greek Mysticism is a rare gem that marries scholarly wisdom with practical spirituality. George’s insightful approach unveils the gods’ profound essence, offering readers a transformative road map to inner growth and connection. This book is an invitation to weave the divine into our daily lives.” —Sophie Bashford, intuitive and bestselling author of You Are a Goddess A clear introduction to the spirituality, beliefs, rituals, and gods and goddesses of the Greek pantheon from a modern practitioner. Secrets of Greek Mysticism is the first spiritual book about the Greek gods and goddesses written by a native, practicing priest of Hellenic Polytheism. It goes beyond the simplistic and archetypical representation of the Greek pantheon and instead introduces the gods and goddesses from a theological perspective. Secrets of Greek Mysticism teaches readers how to find each god or goddess within them. This is achieved through grounded insights on the gods’ virtues as they relate to modern life (i.e., practicing bravery with Ares, cultivating endurance with Demeter, and embodying love with Aphrodite), explaining the deeper spiritual meaning of popular myths, practicing guided meditations, activating the gods’ energies with mantras and hymns, and performing simple rituals. In helping readers build a spiritual connection with the gods and goddesses, Secrets of Greek Mysticism reveals the beginnings of the practice as well as practices for everyday life: The twelve gods’ birth stories, essences, and virtues The foundation of ancient Greek spirituality, cosmology, and theology How to live and work with the gods on a daily basis Setting up altars Symbols, hymns, and meditations to guide readers’ practice of connecting with the gods Secrets of Greek Mysticism also makes the claim that for the Divine Feminine to rise, the Divine Masculine needs to rise, too. Rather than solely focusing on female goddesses, it brings together the male and female deities of the Greek pantheon to help readers experience divine union.
