Magnus Blackwell’s past is about to catch up with  
him.

An evil force has seized New Orleans. Pestilence,  
suffering, and darkness cloak the city. The citizens 
are scared and need their mambo to guide them, but 
Lexie Arden can’t help anyone. A diabolical presence 
has taken Lexie’s power and severed her ties with the other side. 
Magnus Blackwell is fighting demons of his own. Torn  between his devotion to Lexie and a spirit from 
his past, Magnus’s loyalty is put to the test. He must 
revisit his sins to uncover the key to the hatred 
ripping   the city apart. If he doesn’t, Lexie’s reign as 
mambo will end.

Their search for answers leads them deep into the 
darker realms of voodoo—until a desperate Lexie 
does the unthinkable, and Magnus can do nothing to 
spare her from her fate.




Oh My Gods what a book! I absolutely loved book one, but
 this one was even better. It is just as well-written as book 
one and so thought out to.

This is Lexi, Will and Magnus' continuing story. She is now
 mambo of New Orleans and with her spirit guide Magus by 
her side she is helping people. Then all kinds of bad things 
start to happen and her powers disappear. Something or 
someone is out to take her place. As she tries to find out 
what is happening she also has her new husband Will to deal
 with. Then plagues hit town and bodies start showing up. 
One of these bodies almost breaks her. But something 
happens to her Will and she now has to decide to embrace 
the dark or lose him. She will surprise you as in order to save
 will she will lose something and it is not good. Oh the cat will
 be a surprise too. Let's hope she can figure it out. I am so 
ready for the next book.

Now before I ruin this for you I will leave off here. I hope you
 enjoy this book as much as I did. If you do like this book, 
please consider leaving a review. The Authors really like it 
when you do; they value your opinions too.



Will went to the doors leading to the balcony. “Do you hear that?”
Lexie got up from the sofa, and as soon as she came up to him, a low buzzing came through their back door. “What is it?”
Will hooked her waist. “Get behind me.”
“Why?”
“Just do it, Lexie!”
She curled into his back with her hands on his shoulders, looking around the nape of his neck while he reached for the door handle.
The buzzing got much louder when he cracked the door.
Her breath coming in quick gasps, she stared out into the night.
A wave of black shot up from the courtyard as if alerted by the light escaping from their door. The humming became deafening. Her eyes adjusted to the dark, and then Lexie became paralyzed with terror.
Flies, thousands of them, swarmed like a flock of birds, dipping and rising with a single mind. While poised over the pond, their mass obscured the floodlights from the adjacent buildings.
Aghast, Lexie’s nails dug into Will as the swarm pulled into a giant ball. A black wave flowed over the mass, bending and twisting in different directions, forming a shape.
“Have you ever seen flies do that?” Will mumbled.
Never taking her eyes off the object, she whispered back, “No. Never.”
Right after Lexie spoke, the ball suddenly contracted into a tight, flat orb.
She could not see the flies anymore, but their buzzing remained. Depressions sank into the orb; two eyes, a dip where the nose should be, and a thin line for the mouth.
The face reminded Lexie of a large black skull.
The skull then exploded, and the flies flew off in every direction.
“Holy shit!” Will slammed the doors and set the bolt. “What the hell was that?”
Lexie went around him to the window and peeked outside.
The only things hovering above the pond were a few bright beams from a neighbor’s spotlight. The flies had disappeared.
She stepped back, trembling. “It’s a warning.”
“Any idea who’s sending it?”
She rubbed his back, eager to feel his warmth. “No, but I’m sure I will find out soon enough.”
“Are you all right?” Magnus arrived in her living room. “I came as soon as I felt the black presence nearby.”
“We’re fine.” She looked up. “Just spooked.”
“Who are you talking …?” Will’s voice faded. “Oh my God. Is that …?”
Lexie held her breath as Will stared openmouthed at Magnus. “Can you see him?”
Will closed his mouth and cleared his throat. “Oh yeah.”
She rubbed her head, fighting the tension headache coming on. “This is all I need.”
“Others have seen me, why not him?” Magnus maneuvered closer. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Will.”
Will’s cheeks blanched, but he managed a courteous nod.
“Yeah, it’s nice to know you’re real.”
Magnus smugly grinned. “I’ve always been real.”
A long lapse of silence followed as each of the men—well, man and ghost—sized the other up.
Since she’d first met Magnus, Lexie longed for Will to see him, to know he existed. Her wish finally granted, she questioned if seeing Magnus was good for her husband. Will had stayed on the fringe of her world, opting to support her in any way he could, but leaving her to run her responsibilities without his assistance. She’d preferred things that way, seeking guidance from Titu instead of Will. He had his architecture firm and she her shop. Could they go back to their comfortable existence, or had the tide turned?



“Why is this happening?” Will staggered backward. “Why am I seeing him?”
