About this ebook

The jettatori are male witches. They make and sell illegal magical charms. Their underground network controls the city, and it’s boys’ club—no women allowed.

Eighteen-year-old Olivia Calabrese is tough as nails. She not only wants in, she wants to be boss.

She’s got the pedigree. Her father ran the crew until he was arrested and locked up.

She’s got a secret weapon. Brice Ventresca—super powerful, super gorgeous.

Now all she has to do is survive the competition against her cousin and scrabble her way to the top.

Except her cousin’s not playing fair. He whispers something to her that throws her off track. Says that her dead mother wasn’t killed by stray bullets from the police, like she thought. It was a hit, one ordered by her father.

Now Olivia’s determined to find out the truth.

And gorgeous Brice? Well, he’s contracted a magical virus that makes him turn into a rage-filled monster every night at midnight.

Ratings and reviews

i think this book deserves 3.5 stars.there are some mature themes and description of violence but it still has a young adult vibe. Olivia, the protagonist, is pretty intriguing and keeps you interested in the story. I like that she is tough and just as ambitious as her male counterparts. Easy read with plenty of excitement amd mystery.

I cant wait to read the other two of this trilogy. I usually get just the free, not this time. The characters remind me of my Italian family minus magic. I see me at Olivia's' age . :))

Awesome book. Captivating characters keep you wanting more
