Teaser 

“I don’t argue with my mother,” he said. “But I admit, I believe in magic.” His unusual gaze snagged hers. “Do you?”

“No.”

“What about fate?”

Something inside Natalie snapped. He was pulling her chain, right? Messing with her. “You should really cancel your subscription to Pick-Up Lines for the Lame and Desperate.”

Synopsis 

Otherworldly to-do list: 1. Save mage. 2. Find missing queen. 3. Avoid certain death. 

Who knew there was a portal to another world in Keister, Oklahoma? Not disgraced blogger Susan Etherbee, who moves to the small town to live on the farm she's inherited from a distant relative. Her life was in shambles anyway, why not sequester herself in the middle of nowhere and become a cat lady? 

Then Susan finds an odd skeleton sky in an antique desk. The note attached says, "Opens attic." What the hell. But when she opens the door, she finds herself in the strange and beautiful world of mage Auron Tarlett. He immediately mistakes her for an assassin named Sage and drags her into a rescue mission that will ultimately determine both their fates.
