Book Description
After a lawsuit landed her in the defendant's chair of a jury trial, and another client charged back twelve- grand on his credit card, Marla, a professional matchmaker for affluent men seeking smokin' hot women was beyond frazzled. She was disheartened, and quite simply, fed up! Yearning for a less stressful and shallow situation and more appreciation for her dedication and expertise, she petitioned her guardian angel, Thomas to get on the job of finding her a way to make a living that appealed to her more esoteric side. Marla yearned for some sparkle?some magic. Over lunch one day at a vegan café, Marla received an invitation from her friend Ana. "Every Tuesday evening at his home in Malibu, a shaman named Riz Mirza channels the spirit of an American Indian called Chief Red Eagle at an event he calls 'The Circle of Light.' Spiritual seekers from all over Los Angeles flock there to receive messages from Red Eagle. It's forty dollars. A friend took me a few months ago, and it was really cool. Do you want to go?"Marla finished the last bite of her vegan mac 'n' cheese and gave her a serious look. "You mean to tell me that I can ask a spirit whatever I want for only forty bucks? Heck, I'll even drive." Los Angeles is one of the main hubs of cool, even outlandish spiritual things to do, and over the years, Marla has participated in everything from séances, yoga retreats, vegan festivals, full moon Goddess rituals, and New Age expos, but little did she know, the simple act of attending a channeling circle, she was about to embark on the most life changing and magical experience of her life thus far.

Book Description
Fablehaven meets How to Train Your Dragon in this action-packed fantasy about a young boy and girl who become reluctant allies when caring for a baby dragon—the first in brand-new duology! Twelve-year-old Bryn has always dreamed of becoming a Seeker, just like her dad. Only the Seekers are allowed to journey from their small village into the fantastical, untamed wilderness of their island known as the Wild Realm. Once there, they obtain magical items for the village and use magic to protect and heal the incredible creatures native to the Realm. When one of the elderly Seekers retires, leaving a vacant position, Bryn knows this may be her chance. There’s just one problem: Only boys have ever been Seekers. And the training master makes it clear he will not be training a girl. But then Bryn’s biggest rival for the Seeker position, a boy named Ari, shows up at her door. He reveals the baby dragon he’s been hiding, and the two strike a deal—if Bryn helps care for the dragon, Ari will share all his training with her. Even as the two bond over their love of magical animals and their secret trips into the Wild Realm, Bryn doesn’t completely trust Ari’s motives. Especially as she suspects Ari may know more than he’s letting on about the enemy clan stirring up unrest in their village. When all these secrets come to a head and the stakes are at their highest, Bryn realizes it’s up to her to save her family…and the Realm.
