Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
Book Blurb:
The Witches of Vegas are back, and their lives will never be the same again.
A year has passed since The Witches of Vegas saved the city from the evil Wiccan vampire, Valeria. Since then, the show has hit an all-time high. So has the romance between teen witch Isis Rivera and teenage magician, Zack Galloway.
Things couldn't be any better for them until Isis develops seizures that cause her power to spiral out of control. Fires and earthquakes are just the beginning of the chaos caused by the misfired witchcraft. Unable to find a cure, Isis' family journeys to New Salem, a fabled village of witches which may or may not even exist. Meanwhile, Zack ends up face to face with the only being who may have a cure...Valeria. But does he dare pay her price?
Excerpt:
Isis ran back behind the wall. She then commanded
the illusion of herself behind the far left wall to step
through and stare out into the audience with a hand on
its hip. It received a collective gasp. To them, it was as
if Isis had stepped through one wall on one side of the
stage, and then come out of another wall on the
opposite side of the stage. She had practiced this many
times, but this was the best she had ever pulled it off. It
was now time to bring it home…
Whoa!
A pain ran through Isis’ chest. It felt like a mallet
slamming against her heart. She tried to take a deep
breath, but it was a struggle, like sucking a watermelon
down her throat. An image formed in her head. It was
Valeria, the Wiccan vampire who turned their lives
upside down. Isis hadn’t thought about her, or the
torture she endured at her hands, in a long while. Why
now all of a sudden, and while her chest screamed in
pain?
Isis leaned her back against the wall. Everything
circled as if she were in the eye of a tornado. She had
felt this sensation before, but never with such intensity.
Her hands trembled. Something was happening, but she
didn’t know what. “Not again, not right now.” She
blinked her eyes rapidly. It’s been over a year since
Valeria was in their lives. She demanded of her brain to
never think of her again. Time to refocus on the now.
