Now, you know me. I love my pranks as much as the next person, maybe even more so. But I want to remind you that today is April Fool’s Day and if you are already skeptical of things on the internet, then you should be extra skeptical today. And if you aren’t skeptical, well you might need to be today! I promise I won’t play any bad pranks today, but I can’t say anything about anyone else!
I have 5 amazing books launching this week. The first of them released today and that’s not an April Fool’s joke either!
This Week’s New Releases
Title: The Portrait of Doom
Series: The Witch Punk Files Book 3
Release Date: 04/01/2024
A witch. A warlock. A brewing war…
Lila Darkholme isn’t your average college student. She’s a witchy girl sleuth and the fierce frontwoman of The Witch Punks. But now, she faces her greatest challenge yet.
Robert Caldwell, a vengeful warlock, has escaped prison with one goal: to steal the magical grimoire hidden in Ruby’s cottage. The secrets within could unleash untold havoc.
Enter Dr. Elara Thornwood, the enigmatic new professor at Chicago College. As Lila works with her to uncover the secrets of another ancient grimoire, the black market for magical objects booms, fueled by Caldwell’s insatiable hunger for power.
With the stakes rising and Caldwell’s attacks escalating, Lila must guard the Elysian Grimoire, unravel Dr. Thornwood’s secrets, and track down a disturbing, living portrait. Time is running out.
Can Lila protect her friends and stop Caldwell before his vengeance consumes everything she holds dear? Or will the warlock’s obsession for power and revenge prove too strong, even for this rebellious witch?

Release Date: 04/02/2024
The king is dead. Long live the king.
With King Nikoli’s madness ended, it’s time for Luca to ascend the high Therian throne.
It’s a hollow victory without his mate by his side.
Ash is determined to prove that vampires don’t have to be evil.
First, she needs to learn what it means to be one. And convince her parents not to freak out about the fangs.
Vampire boot camp teaches her more about her powers, but they don’t come with an instruction manual. When Ash shows an aptitude for magic, it’s clear she’s no ordinary vampire. Or witch. Or whatever she is.
Ash has every reason to believe her visions, even if she doesn’t understand them.
Too bad trusting her new instincts and leaning on powers she doesn’t understand isn’t the only fight she faces.
The truce with Nadya is over, and she’s coming for Luca’s head. Can Ash thwart the vampire queen’s plans from half a world away, or are they destined to lose everything?
The Vampire Queen is the next book in the steamy, action-packed Therian Throne series from Candy Crum and Amanda R. Browning.
