Dream Cast List: Match the Character To the Actor!

Back in the day, I kept a dedicated list of my favorite actors to play the main characters in the Of Witches and Warlocks (and now the Book of Shadows) series. This is that list! Can you match the character name with the actor I chose to play them? Each correct answer will be added to a drawing for a Mystery Prize. Who will win the final Game of Thrones Witches? #LetTheGamesBegin


Character Names:
1. Vance Mangum
2. Portia Mullins
3. Sean Mullins (Portia's Dad)
4. Damien Cummings (Vance's Dad)
5. Milly Mullins (Portia's Grandma)
6. Stacey Mullins (Portia's Mom)
7. Krista Mangum (Vance's Mom)
8. Brad Anderson (Vance & Portia's Bestfriend, Shelly's Boyfriend)
9. Shelly Fontane (Vance & Portia's Bestfriend, Brad's Girlfriend)
10. Hex/Hezikiah (Portia's Jinn Trainer/Step-Grandpa)
11. Douglas Cummings (Vance's Grandpa)
12. Fiona Cummings (Vance's Grandma)
13. Brian Fitzgerald (Douglas's Nephew)
14. Crispin (Friend of Sean/Leader of another coven)
15. Catriona Fitgerald (Brian's Mom)
16. Mayla (Bayou Demon Coven Leader)

Rules:
Match the character NAME to the corresponding LETTER. Example: Vance = (insert LETTER). DO NOT answer with Number = Letter. It makes them too difficult to check each answer. Credit won't be given if the answers aren't listed as (Character Name) = (Letter). Answers may be given on this post or any social media post where this game appears. HAVE FUN! 

NOTE: This game is part of the Of Witches ad Warlocks 10 Year Anniversary Celebration. You can read the story all over again in a whole new way with the entire series rewritten from Vance's point of view. There's a ton of never before seen material, insights, dialogue, chapters, scenes, etc. Don't miss out on all the fun and fall in love with Vance all over again in the brand new Book of Shadows series!

It's Here! White Magick Is Out!

Hello, again!

I hope this crazy May weather finds you safe and warm somewhere. I know many people have been caught in some extreme and cold weather. I, personally, have been getting snow and lots of wind. While it may not be the most ideal thing, it is perfect book reading weather. I even listened to an audiobook I had downloaded during a long period of no power last night. I also enjoyed the candlelight during the outage. It was very relaxing!

Speaking of candles and books, my latest book, White Magick, released on Sunday! Thanks to those of you who helped get the book on The Hot List during preorders again! I appreciated it!

White Magick is the third installment in the Book of Shadows series – Vance’s Story. It follows the main storyline in my #1 Bestselling Young Adult Paranormal Romance series, Of Witches and Warlocks, but from main character Vance Mangum’s perspective. The series can stand on its own, without having read Of Witches and Warlocks, but for those of you that have read the first series, I hope you’ll check this one out. Readers are saying it “feels like a whole new story” from Vance’s point of view. There are many new chapters, dialogue, and never before seen scenes and material throughout the entire book. You don’t know the whole story until you know Vance’s story.

I’ve really enjoyed writing these books for the 10 Year Anniversary Celebration! It has been fun to be back in this world. So pull up a chair (or a candle, depending on your weather) and sink into a world of love, magic, mayhem, and mystery!

Stay safe!
Lacey


Caught up in the fairytale romance of his relationship, Vance finds himself in one of the happiest places of his life, with a future that’s coming up roses. Finally, all his dreams are coming true, or are they? 

Walls crumble and true natures are revealed when a heartbreaking betrayal occurs, leaving Vance and Portia racing the clock as they try to stop an ancient ritual before anyone else dies.

Full of family drama, bloodlust, intrigue, desire, and things that go bump in the night, who can Vance really trust as he struggles to keep it all together? And will he survive the oncoming onslaught?

From #1 International and USA Today Bestselling Author, Lacey Weatherford, comes book 3 in the Book of Shadows saga, White Magick! Don’t miss this exciting installment of Vance’s Story!

Release Day: Demon Within is Now Available!

Happy Release Day!! 

Demon Within, #2 in the Book of Shadows series is now available! 

If you missed book 1, Fire & Ice, it’s FREE on ebook. Fall in love with Vance Mangum all over again! Favorite male character and sexiest witch or wizard nominee, Vance is from my multi-time, multi-list, multi-nominated, #1 Bestselling Young Adult Paranormal Romance series, Of Witches and Warlocks. All five books in the series hit #1 and were literally the jumpstart to my career!

Now, 10 years later, Vance is telling his side of the story in Book of Shadows as part of “The Year of Vance” 10 Year Anniversary Celebration, with 5 new books, all coming in 2019. Here’s a peek at the prologue of Demon Within, out today!

***

Prologue
Gunning the engine, I throttled my motorcycle faster, trying to outrace the bloodlust churning inside me. Thirst made me reckless, but at the moment I didn't care since it was taking me from the only girl I'd ever loved.
Portia. Even thinking her name left me aching with loss, both physically and emotionally. It was for her I was doing all this. I wasn't afraid to die, as long as I could complete this one last task. Then it could all be over. I simply had to know Portia and the rest of the world were safe from the monster I'd become, and the beast who'd created me.
The motor roared hotly, threatened to the limit, yet I still added a burst of my own magic to increase the speed, not caring if the frame could handle it. I was angry, and hell-bent on the destruction of said beast—my father, to be exact. He was responsible for the current perdition I found myself living in. I didn't know where I'd find him, or how I'd do it, but when I got my hands on Damien Cummings, I was going to kill him in the most painful way possible. He would never terrorize me, or anyone else, ever again.
Religiously, I wasn't sure on my view of the afterlife, but I hoped there was an Underworld that tormented souls, or a demonic hell. All I knew was I wanted him to suffer for eternity, even if it meant I had to join him to see it happen.
Wheels eating up the asphalt beneath me, I finally saw the lights of the next town. I'd hoped to travel farther, but I could tell I was getting sicker and needed to find lodging. Madness stirred my insides, my hunger rising. I needed to get off this road and find a place to settle in.  Speeding along even faster, I dangerously wove in and out of the traffic on I-40, not caring one whit about all the loud honking when I narrowly missed other vehicles, passing them on the wrong side near the shoulder of the road. I didn't slow until I saw the first sign signaling lodging was available at the next exit in Gallup, New Mexico. I didn't care if it was seedy and rat infested, or a five-star hotel. I just needed a room.
Now.
