Wayward Witch
Samantha Bell - 2020
I’ll die before I let these bullies have their way.” Most people in Woodlock’s Home for Magical Delinquents swear they don’t belong here - well, I do. If someone asked me if I was a good witch or a bad witch, I’d tell them that I'm the worst witch they could ever imagine. My parents are wanted fugitives, and now I’ve been abandoned in the magical world’s equivalent of juvenile hall. At Woodlock’s, we’re supposed to be rehabilitated into model magical citizens, but the teachers are weak and the bullies run the show. Three dangerously hot sorcerers - Blake, Knox, and Zane - have me in their sights, but I’ll show them that this bad witch doesn’t kneel to anyone - especially the Sons of Hell. - Wayward Witch is a stand-alone reverse harem bullies-to-lovers romance. A full length supernatural college academy romance. Contains profanity, violence, and situations that may be triggering for some readers.
