Books Alert: The Enchanters Series by Allie Burke

The Enchanters Series

Violet Midnight, Book One

He knew she was gone the second her cool touch withdrew from his arm. He never saw her but had felt her disappear into some cold, dark place. He perceived the black emptiness where she had been summoned, her deep anxiety filling his heart. But he couldn’t reach her. He didn’t even know her name. 

Elias moved to Hazel Grove, California to get away from the rain, his parents, and everything that was taken from him in Hayward, Washington. But he thinks he may be going crazy when he starts seeing purple glitter in the air, the scent of rosemary is everywhere, and he is hearing a beautiful voice.

Jane is content in her life of solitude in the quiet town of Jasmyn Lake, but when her special magic sends her on a journey to meet the man she has been dreaming about for months, she cannot resist.

Look into the world of The Enchanters, where water has a sense of humor, trees scare people, and love – is destiny.

Ever – Short Story, Book 1.5

A silent moment passed before she nodded her head. “I’ve never seen him like that,” she said absently. “Ever.”

Set on a quiet night which takes place just before the Epilogue in Violet Midnight (book one of The Enchanters trilogy), Ever explores the existence of true love, destiny, guilt, sorrow, and goodbyes in a world that is as secluded as a small coven of vampires and is as magical as the luminous colors that explode from the hearts of its Enchanters.

Following a night wrecked with death, loss, and more than one unnatural disaster, Elias and Jane must learn to survive, starting with each other. And ending… with him.

Emerald Destiny, Book Two

The night was completely calm now, cool and slightly breezy, no trace of the earlier storm. The rain had been vicious, cutting through his skin like glass, his heart shattering as the shards poured into him from the sky. Not even Cameron’s polished influence could muster a storm like that, one that drained his energy until he blacked out of his head. It had only ever rained like that a handful of times since Evan could remember, but every time it did, she was somewhere in the woods, crying. She said she didn’t remember him. Abby was a lot of things, but never a liar. That is, until tonight. 

Nineteen year old Evan spends his time in the woods of Dare Forest, as close to her as he can be, the girl that for fourteen years, his heart has ached for. The same girl that everyone around him forbids him to love.

Abby’s nights are crowded between her Enchanter life, her dreading nightmares, and her enduring will to save her brother from his own inner darkness. But when Evan speaks to her for the first time in fourteen years, she finds she can no longer endure the sorrow crowding her world.

Countless times before them, the union between a Brooks woman and a Reed man has failed. The love in their hearts strives to be together forever, but will their destinies break them apart?

Amber Passion, Book Three

Daniel blinked hard, consciously widening his eyes to hold onto himself. That soft, warm, compassionate voice of hers was so beautiful. He was having trouble concentrating. Breathing. Driving. 

“I will,” Daniel admitted. “Scare you. Sometime.”

With Abby out of town, the twin sister that existed as the whole of his soul, his soul for nineteen years before this night, Abby, depressed, ill, pregnant Abby, in the hands of her new husband and fourteen hours away, on an impulse Daniel visits Hazel Grove and for the second time experiences the sun shining in the middle of the night.

But this is a sun with a different name. A sun with blonde hair and an orange aura and with a bright light that scared the darkness right out of Daniel Linden. He was terrified. Terrified because, the darkness, that blackness that had been his heart for the duration of his life, was… lost. He was lost. Lost, and conquered. By passion. By love. Conquered, by Claire Dalton. Claire. The real Claire.

Fall into the very last story of The Enchanters to discover what else may be lost, who will lose themselves and what they may find, and who… will come back.
