SEX. MAGIC. BLOOD. AND WITCHES Valisa Ravensquire inherits more than a fancy house and a ton a money. She inherits a family legacy- a magical one. Valisa moves to the family home Moonswallow Gates which is a giant stone tower in Pennsylvania and the blood shed begins but it's just part of the house's legacy. This is not just Valisa's story but the story of the entire Ravensquire clan that spans from the late 1700's to present day with bloody twists every step of the way. It's probably best to read Valisa's story- with the lights on but much more fun to read it by flashlight or candlelight in the middle of the night in the quiet woods.
