Her Magic is a Rare Gift,but it Brings Her Only Nightmare.

Seventeen-year-old Minx Mellor is a survivor. Kidnapped, abused, and exploited for her rare shapeshifting magic, she is terrified of small spaces and of being on stage. She channels her magic abilities into creating fantastic devices and props for the Alchemy Empire Theater, where she is an apprentice.

When Minx discovers her rival, snobbish acting apprentice Delphine Birdwell, is involved in illegal theater productions, she plans to get Delphine in trouble. But when they learn that their lead actress Nadine Fairchild is the next target of a serial killer, Minx teams up with Delphine to set a trap for the killer.

They are joined by Dietrich Wolff, the sexy and mysterious new director of the apprentice company. Minx is drawn to him even as his presul magic brings back dark memories of her time in captivity. Their secret efforts are complicated by Minx's deep fears, an unexpected new murder, and blackmail.

When Delphine nearly dies from a brutal assault, Minx risks everything, embracing her own magic and dark past, to take Delphine's place as bait to trap the murderer.

This is my first young adult novel. It's represented by Jim McCarthy at Dystel &amp, Goderich Literary Management. It's now COMPLETE, and I'm hard at work on the sequel, Claws of Brass, which I hope to start posting later in 2015.

It's SO helpful if you leave comments! And please ask your friends who like young adult fantasy to give it a read! With ANY Wattpad story, it means so much to us writers if you give us a vote when you like the story.

If all the world's a stage, then I am utterly screwn...

In the high-stakes world of the theater, stage fright can seriously crank your career, so apprentice Minx Mellor hides her phobia, studying as a technomancer to create fantastic, steam-powered devices.

But when the mysterious serial killer known as The Peacock targets one of their own, Minx can hide no longer. To save the life of the woman she loves like a mother, she teams up with her sworn enemy and a dashing young director whose powerful magic wakes the nightmares she's kept secret for years.

When disaster strikes, Minx must face the horrors of her past and find the courage to do what she vowed she'd never do again.

Even if it means risking her life as bait to trap a murderer.

From the shadows of cobblestoned alleys and the glittering steampunk world of an aristocracy gone mad for theater comes the first book in a brand new young adult fantasy about love, the power of creativity, and the resiliency of the human spirit.
