Mr Thorne and the Witch



Fleeing the men who brutally murdered her family, Karene Munroe must hide her magical abilities and hope to go unnoticed in the bustle of the capital city. She takes refuge in the house of Malcolm Thorne, a fireworks maker, who offers her a job as his assistant.

Despite her precarious situation, she cannot help but be drawn to this generous and charming man. A future with him could be wonderful, but her past won’t be laid to rest. From a local crime lord who seeks to use her powers, to the hunters who are hard on her heels, Karene is trapped in a maze of danger and lies. Can she find a way out before Malcolm is lost to her forever?

Miss Ridley & The Warlock
Gemma Ridley’s first encounter with Squire Kenrik proves nothing short of alarming. So much so, she considers fleeing back to the city, despite the fact only poverty and scandal await her there. Could those challenges be worse than staying as governess on a haunted estate and working for a dangerously handsome eccentric?

Little does Gemma realize what dark secrets and wondrous enchantments will transform her life at Rook Hall. Squire Kenrik is more than he seems—more than any man she has known. He may be the source of her undoing, or he may hold the key to her deepest desires. Only time and the guidance of her heart will tell.

This is a magically charged romantic adventure.
The characters are wonderfully written. The bad guys are really, really bad. I did not mind when one (or each) met a violent end. 
The settings, from poverty to opulence, are descriptively written. You imagine being right alongside Karene as she struggles to rebuild her life. 
Her family is hauntingly frightening. When it gets to be the final confrontation, you'll be holding your breath waiting to see if they come through for Karene.
An excellent storyline that begins with despair, offers a glimpse of hope and goodness in men, but doesn't protect us from evil and greed.
Karene is looking for survival and acceptance. She finds out life requires more.
Is she brave enough to do what is required?
