You control magic or it controls you.
Sahra Devoe is the best black market dealer in the business and the most hunted sorcerer in the land because of the dark magic within her. She'll lie, steal, and cheat to get what she wants-teaching everyone else what she learned years ago-trust no one. Especially not a handsome guy with a ridiculous hero complex, no matter how charming he is.
After an encounter with the deadly Shadow Demons-creatures Sahra's father released into their world-she awakens in the most dangerous place of all: the castle. There she's blackmailed with her own earnings to work side by side with the very people hunting her. She is also reunited with her oldest friend who she thought she'd never see again: the prince. He's the boy she never forgot, grown into a seductive man she can't ignore. But he can never know her true identity, none of them can.
The longer she stays, the more she learns something lurks within the castle even more evil than herself. Sahra must face her past, and start fighting back for the future of her kind. But if she doesn't learn to trust, she may be lost to the darkness within her before she can save anyone.
Baker, Mikaela: - Mikaela struggled with reading and writing when she was a child due to her learning disability for sight recognition. But her love of stories helped her to overcome the obstacles of her learning disability, now she reads two to three books a week and just completed her debut novel. In fact, her love of reading can oftentimes be the culprit of her walking into work as a zombie because, you know, just one more chapter. Mikaela lives in Arizona and works in the Queen Creek School District where she wrangles little ones who occasionally test the laws of human patience. Her writing career began when she was still in high school and her mother came to her for plotting help. It evolved from there when she realized she liked creating new worlds and complicated characters. Magic Cursed is her debut novel.
Baker, Torsha J.: - To the utter frustration of her teachers, Torsha spent more time daydreaming than she did paying attention in school. As an adult, she decided to put her overactive imagination to use and create stories that took her from reality. Because, really, reality sucks sometimes and writing is cheaper than therapy. That was over fifteen years ago. Since then, she has written seven novels, and occasionally teaches classes at writing conferences. Torsha was also a member of the Ready Set Write Podcast, and a judge on the So You Think You Can Write Youtube channel. She lives in Queen Creek Arizona with her amazing husband, who doesn't read but will happily act out romance scenes, their four awesome kids, and two high-maintenance fur babies who bark too much but give the best cuddles. When she's not writing, she's procrasti-baking French macarons with her business Ooh La La Macaron, is a voracious reader, loves to travel, and especially treasures spending time with family and friends. Her hope is that you will enjoy her words as much as she did writing them.
