Hocus My Pocus

If you've got it, haunt it… Once upon a time, I had big ideas, big dreams, and big plans. But when my mother left my kid sister with me when I was only fifteen, I was suddenly the single mother I never thought I'd be. Someone had to raise Torren and show her love and support, the way parents were supposed to love their children, the way our mother never did. To do so, I had to forget all of my own dreams.

When I dropped Torren off on Megelle Island two years ago, it was finally my time again. Time to chase those plans I'd pushed aside. So I had… until one day I realized I felt empty. That dream job lost all its sparkle. My friends just felt more alien than ever, it was like I woke up one day and forgot how to act human. Because I was a jinn, and even among the supernatural society, I was rare. Nobody ever told me how lonely rare felt.

So I packed up my stuff and returned to the one place I never should have left: Megelle Island. An Island hidden from human eyes where supernaturals like me could live freely and peacefully. I didn't know what my future held I just knew I wanted to see Torren. But when I found her, I found her with a soulmate, a fiancé… an entire life that no longer included me. I'd never felt more lost and confused.

And then I came face-to-face with my ex-boyfriend. The man I'd broken up with ten years ago because he was mortal and I wasn't. The man I'd broken my own heart over. Except now… he was a vampire, and the rules were all different.
