Goodreads Synopsis
What if you lived in fear of yourself?
For Mage McPherson being afraid of herself is just the norm. Thanks to that fear, being a loner in a small town never bothered the mysterious Mage. Once she received her secret abilities, she figured being alone was the safest way to be. That all changes during her sophomore year at Summerville High when Adam, her equally mysterious secret crush, starts to notice her.
Afraid that she might harm Adam, Mage must learn to either control or deny herself. With Adam by her side she's more powerful than she’s ever been, but is she powerful enough to defeat her worst nightmare? She learns a hard lesson about love and magic when her destiny comes to collect.

Excerpt
I’m not sure why being around Adam does this to me. Maybe it’s the excitement of him knowing a small part of my secrets. Perhaps it’s the fact that out of the thousands of people at school, he’s the only one that sees me.
I’m not sure why being around Adam does this to me. Maybe it’s the excitement of him knowing a small part of my secrets. Perhaps it’s the fact that out of the thousands of people at school, he’s the only one that sees me.
But
something about him sings to me, and the tune is refreshing. It gives me an odd desire to know him. It
started in the second grade and it’s only gotten worse over the years.
Incapable
of looking away, I’m paralyzed. The emerald gates of Oz are open and I’m being
allowed a tiny glimpse of a color-filled world.
Finally, he blinks and his intense spell is broken. I take advantage of
the relief and quickly look out the window. The sky is bright and blue, a
slither of sunlight shines down on us from a hovering white cloud.
The rain clouds from earlier have suddenly
disappeared and I know I’m responsible. The intensity of the warmth I feel
being this close to him has transformed the day. What would’ve been a rainy
walk home will now be sunny.
I
wonder to myself what the hell I’m doing.
I’m not
a little, blushing girl. I’m not one of those girls who melt every time an
attractive guy talks to them. I’m not a mindless tart who lusts after jerks!
Not saying
Adam’s a jerk, but there’s no need for us to start talking now. I don’t want to
condemn him to the gates of social hell for being polite to me. If he’s still
the sweet little boy from second grade, then he definitely doesn’t deserve what
Bernie experienced a few hours ago.
I say nothing as I gather
my things and walk away. Tabatha has been writing since she could pick up a pencil. Her first publication was a little poem in her elementary school paper, from that point on she was hooked. When she was a teenager, she traded in her girly magazines for personalized writing notebooks.
At nineteen, she met her own personal prince charming and writing took a back burner for a while. She is now married to that prince and the mother of a beautiful Six year old princess/rock star. Once her daughter was born, writing came back into her life, and she finished her very first novel in May of 2009.
She is pursuing a Bachelors in English and hopes to one day teach while continuing to write.
As a stay-at-home mom and full-time student, Tabatha enjoys the freedom of spending a good bit of her days doing what she loves the most…writing.
