Publisher Description

From bestselling author S. Usher Evans comes the first book in a young adult clean contemporary fantasy series filled with magical hijinks and mystery. Fans of Tamora Pierce and Sabrina the Teenaged Witch will get caught up in this brilliant series about a supposedly normal teenager who discovers she's magical—and that's just the start of her problems.

Lexie Carrigan thought she was a normal, if perhaps a little nerdy, teen. But on her fifteenth birthday, she discovers she's magical.

What?!

Now the girl obsessed with history books is blowing up her nightstand and wreaking havoc at school. But her Aunt Jeanie and sisters are of little help. They expect her to just "understand" how to use her newfound powers and seem determined to keep her in the dark about nearly everything else - including why they kept this giant secret.

So when Gavon, an older, magical man, shows up with all the right answers, Lexie begs him to teach her everything he knows. But the more Lexie learns about just how unique her magic is, the more she begins to wonder if Gavon's appearance wasn't so happenstance—and if he's hiding secrets of his own.

One thing's for sure: Being magical might just be the most normal thing about her.

Spells and Sorcery is the first book in the Lexie Carrigan Chronicles, a contemporary clean young adult fantasy series about a teenaged witch, her dysfunctional family, and the mysterious magical man whose appearance is anything but convenient.
