Kate
thought she’d never unlock her powers—let alone trigger them by
creating a familiar out of a cross-eyed pigeon.
Before
she can celebrate the good news, a terrifying bounty hunter kidnaps
her mother. In a race against time to save her mother,
Kate runs afoul of a dragon, and even worse, the most feared
creatures in existence—the dreaded forest gnomes. To top it all
off, she discovers long-lost magical family members who maybe should
have stayed lost. Kate is finally a witch—but it just might kill
her.
If
you like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Veronica Mars and iZombie, you’ll
be rooting for this strong, snarky teen girl on every page.

Alick gestured between us. “What I really need is help wi' a dragon.”
“Come again?” I stared at the little man. “I’m sorry. I thought I heard you say
‘a dragon.’”

“Aye, just a wee one though,” Alick said, holding his hands about two feet

I snorted. “You think I can get it for you?”
“I think ye'r a witch, that's what.” He shrugged. “Ye have magic. Dragons have

“Interesting." It was starting to look more and more as if our meeting with the
coyotes was planned. Also, if you counted Leo, this was my second request
for aid from a paranormal being. Was this what I had to look forward to from
now on as a witch? “What did she take?"

Growing
up homeschooled on the Renaissance Festival circuit is weird enough,
but when you're the daughter of a powerful binding witch who makes a
living as a fortune teller, and your best friend is a middle-aged
sari vendor, weird is relative.
Fifteen-year-old
Kate Roark desperately wants to be a witch but isn't - yet. It's not
likely at her age until she meets the Fortune Taker and gets a taste
of unimaginable power - but at what cost?
Forced
to choose between keeping stolen power or making her magic dreams
come true, her ultimate decision throws her entire world into
question.

as "book candy", and "compulsively readable," The
Binding with and the Fortune Taker is the first in the Kate Roark
Magic Series from emerging YA fantasy writer, Laura Rich.
Laura Rich is an emerging author of young adult fantasy fiction about witches. She loves to read in a hammock with a glass of iced tea, bake cookies, garden and dress up for Halloween as (you guessed it) a witch. She lives in Texas with her family and works as full-time project manager. Magic may be involved in pulling all this off.
