Deadly Betrayal - Hardcover

by Nichole Heydenburg (Author)

A cursed emerald, a relentless foe, and a destiny intertwined with danger...

After the dramatic rescue of her Aunt Mel from the demon hunter's council, Taylor is thrust into a world of rigorous training and unexpected alliances. Her mentor, Julian Cromwell, is a handsome demon hunter who becomes both a guide and a friend in her quest to master her powers. As Taylor steps into her new life at Grimwood Magical Academy, she faces a whirlwind of challenges and secrets.

Nothing is what it seems. Their next-door-neighbor's new boyfriend is hiding something. And Brody, their newly adopted dog, is acting strange. It's almost as if he's trying to warn Taylor of an approaching danger.

While Taylor does her best to fit in at the academy, Mel's struggles are far from over. Stripped of her powers by a ruthless demon hunter, Mel seeks help from an old friend, Vanessa Ellis. A sinister curse is affecting Vanessa's son. Vanessa wants to make a deal with Mel, forcing Mel to face her most challenging predicament so far.

As Mel battles to reclaim her magic, Taylor must navigate the complexities of friendship, trust, and an emerging threat that could tear their world apart. In a tale of loyalty and courage, can Taylor and her new friends defeat the enemy before it's too late?
