Magic is only a small part of the real dangers lurking in a future of dark otherness.

Book One of the Otherness Series.

Liz Spencer only wants to dump her boyfriend, not change her entire life.

Drawing her into chaos, a freak earthquake strikes her town, revealing that California’s rock solid history goes back much further than the Gold Rush—centuries earlier, in fact. Entangled within that mystery, cursed magic still thrives today in her best friend, Tayna, who’d always been odd, but magic?

A powerful warlock lures away Liz’s new roommate, forcing Tayna and Liz to use witchcraft to thwart him. With grave fear, Liz discovers that magic is only a small part of the real dangers lurking in a future of dark otherness.

  2. I enjoyed Rift and the world the author laid forth. This fantasy tale and its themes of friendship and the history and ancient historical magic made this a unique tale. The characters were well drawn and engaged my attention and emotions…The author is part of the Ashleigh Raine erotic romance writing team, who write urban fantasy. I can see Ms. Slayter’s complex world-building in evidence here. This appears to be her first solo work, and I’m interested to see what else she has up her sleeve.
