Folklore, magic, monsters. They're all real. And they want to kill you.
Lisa Sato thought she had nothing left to lose after the death of her girlfriend. She's proven wrong when her perfectly normal life in New York City takes a bloody, magical turn. A hungry demon burns her house to the ground, and she's only barely rescued by a team of super-powered rangers led by her very own mother. For her protection, Lisa must move away from the people and places she knows to the small town of Sleepy Hollow.
The small town of Sleepy Hollow, as it turns out, has a secret. Sophie Romano has lived there all her life, and she's become an expert at denying that secret. So what if there's a black-ops military base? So what if strange creatures are seen in the night? Sophie has more important things to focus on: submitting her college applications, trying to figure out why she's suddenly seeing the ghost of her long-dead girlfriend, and of course awkwardly flirting with the beautiful new girl at school, Lisa.
As Lisa and Sophie navigate their quickly growing feelings for one another, they'll learn that trying to separate their high school social life from the deadly world of monsters and magic could lead to the loss of the last things that they still hold dear.
Monsters & Magic is an urban-fantasy sapphic romance. A horror novel pretending to be a YA. It centers on trauma, how our loved ones heal us, and how viciously killing a monster can be surprisingly cathartic.
