The Warlock

Making a place for yourself in a world where you don't belong takes courage. So does moving in with a warlock. Drawn into the schemes of an angry wizard, Carin glimpses the place she once called home. It lies upon a shore that seems unreachable. To learn where she belongs and how to get there, the lost traveler must decipher the words of an alien book, follow the clues in a bewitched poem, conjure a dragon from a pool of magic — and tread carefully around a tortured, emotionally scarred sorcerer who can't seem to decide whether to love her or kill her. This is Book 1 of a series. The story continues in Books 2-4: The Wysard, The Wisewoman, and The Witch. Taking the family saga into the next generation is The Karenina Chronicles (2023).
