Fire and Magic (The Jadori Book 1)
A girl who sees ghosts. A magic out of control. A group hellbent on destroying what they’re afraid of.
Maddie Johnson is sent to a mental institution because she talks to people who aren’t there. She insists that they’re ghosts. Just as she thinks she’s convinced the doctors that she is fine, a dark-haired ghost with dreamy brown eyes rushes in and ruins everything.
Instead of going home, she is sent to a halfway house that helps people with mental illness assimilate back into society. Problem is, one of the residents hates her and the house is haunted – oh, and the cute ghost has followed her. Maddie tries to get away, but then she hurts someone using magic she didn’t know she possessed. Now she has a new problem. She will have to learn to control her magic.
She discovers that the town has secrets; people are going missing. How far are people willing to go to destroy what they are afraid of? Maddie and her attractive-but-annoying spirit might just find out first-hand.
FIRE AND MAGIC is an exciting first book in the Jadori Series that will transport romantasy fans to a fascinating world that exists within our own, filled with suspense, danger, magic, ghosts, and romance.

Employee of the Multiverse and His Darling Cat
This journal was intended to recount how I, Noble Malik, a leader of the World Management realm, was transported to a strange world and forced to climb the corporate ladder in order to return home. Inadvertently, it seems to have become a diary about the odd worlds and dangerous mysteries I encounter on business trips with my partner, whose secrets and four-dimensional personality leave me at a loss---yet intrigued. And if the reader wants a literary perspective, I suppose it's about how a workaholic loner unexpectedly learns more about what moves people and himself while uncovering a universe-shattering conspiracy. But honestly, that's too philosophical and romantic. I just wanted to see my cat, Darla, again.
