Hallows Haven

by Melissa Brodsky, Nicole Madison

Overview

Captain of the cheerleading team, 16 year old Gwen Valiente has it all--the best of friends, a loving home, and a bright future. Little does she know that the people she loves the most have been keeping secrets--life-altering secrets.

When strange things start to happen to Gwen, she is thrust into a magickal new realm called Hallows Haven. Leaving the ordinary behind, she discovers that she can do things beyond her wildest dreams. As Hallows Haven begins to feel more like home, Gwen wonders how she ever felt satisfied with everyday life in Michigan.

Too late, Gwen realizes that even in this realm full of light and magick, danger lurks. Someone close to her is not what he seems and someone will do anything to draw her out of Hallows Haven and into the darkness. Even worse, some of that darkness may already exist within her, threatening her chance to make Hallows Haven her permanent home.
Have Gwen's loved ones continued to keep dangerous secrets? Can Gwen resist the call of darkness?

About the Author

Melissa Brodsky used to tell everyone she knew that she was going to be a writer when she grew up. She's currently working on that goal. Living in a modern-day "Yours, Mine and Ours" type household, Melissa is the biological mother of 3 and a full-time stepmother, as well. On some days, she may even be considered evil, and not just by her stepchildren. Most of the time, she is sitting at the kitchen table, poised over her computer while daydreaming up new plots for books. She blogs (on occasion) over at rockanddrool.com. She can be emailed at and hanging out on FB and Twitter for her social media company called Smart Savvy Social.

Since childhood, Nicole has been guilty of daydreaming a little too much. One of her favorite pastimes is staring into space, dreaming up stories, characters, lives, and dimensions when she really should be accomplishing other things. She parlayed her love of creating first into a career as a freelance writer and then into fiction writing. Her favorite genres are paranormal fiction and romance, followed closely by horror.

A long time Pennsylvanian, Nicole spends her days writing, soaking up books, teaching her five children how to be weird (in a good way), dancing for the endorphins and gardening.

Editorial Reviews

I was given the chance to beta read Melissa's YA Paranorma book and was happy that it turned out to be such a great read.

Melissa perfectly turned a well-known story into something totally new and gave the book the perfect mixture of magic, suspense, twists, and wth-effects; oh yeah some there's sweet love story to find as well ;).

Goodreads - Erica Ford

Seriously loved this book. I love that it was not your typical paranormal story all about vampires or werewolves. No this story is about magick, more importantly a girl who recently discovers she is magick. But she's not just your run of the mill witch, there's more to her and I wont reveal too much so I don't give away the entire story. But I will say I CANNOT wait for the next book in the series. Talk about an amazing, chair gripping cliff hanger!
