An inexperienced witch must learn to accept her destiny and figure out her relationship with the dark angel sent by the Devil to seduce her.
Overview
A Reluctant Heroine. A Snarky Angel. A Big Mess.
The Septemgeminus Prophecy states: "A powerful sorceress with blood laced in gold sevenfold shall determine the fate of the world."
16-year-old Fawn Belgrave never believed the stories her mother said about their family's magical lineage. But when she and her twin brother Alec receive powers on their birthday, she starts to realize everything she has heard about the paranormal world is true. When Fawn learns her powers are the coveted prize in a bet between God and the Devil, she must navigate a dangerous world of love, lies, and sacrifice—starting when she meets Caleb, the dark angel assigned to romance and seduce her.
Caleb is sick of Hell. After being stuck for the past 200 years, he leaps at the first chance of freedom. The price? Ensuring Lucifer's victory by leading Fawn into darkness.
As new threats continue to appear, Fawn must learn to harness her powers and successfully navigate an increasingly dangerous world of love, lies, and sacrifice. Can Fawn accept her destiny as the world's savior before it's too late?
The Belgrave Legacy is an upper-young adult paranormal romance novel with a feminist twist. Filled with magic, witches, angels, demons, Zara Hoffman's "coming of age" story will keep you turning the pages until the very end.

Reader Opinions
The story exposes the imaginary side of the author's thinking and both Caleb and Fawn's characters have been portrayed well with a lot of depth. The whimsical quality of the story coupled with romance makes it a sure hit among young readers.
~5 star review from Reader's Favorite
I love paranormal romance and this book doesn't disappoint! It had angels, demons, Lucifer, witches... seriously, some of my favourite things to read about! ... I recommend it to all who love a good paranormal romance!
~Laura L. Hunter, Author of The Eden Chronicles series & more
Once God and the Devil arrive on the scene, I couldn't put it down. In one of the freshest characterizations I've read in genre fiction possibly ever, it turns out that God is kind of a d*ck! Feminist consciousness is alive and well.

This book has it all (at least in my mind): magic, romance, angels, demons, Eeeee! ... This new author definitely has some major potential!
~Reader Review
To me, this book is a real page-turner. ... It's a beautiful, well-written love story ... The author manages to keep you guessing whilst keeping things in perspective. If this is anything to go by, I look forward to reading more of her work.
~Reader Review
A wonderful novel made for the young or the old. If you love a good "coming of age" novel, or in this case coming into power, you will love this one.
~Reader Review
You have to read the book. It was really great. I even asked to start my shift late so I could finish reading it. It is one of those stories that once you start, you don't want to put it down.
~Reader Review
With characters young adults (and those young at heart) can relate to, a gripping storyline and more than a hint of magic, Zara Hoffman's first novel is clearly a resounding success.
~Reader Review
I loved this book. It stands out from the crowd ... as a book which takes on a central love story with a naturalism that makes it entertaining but also easy to identify with. I am hooked!

Zara Hoffman is a college student and has been writing since she was eight years old. She spends most of her time doing homework and writing new stories because if she didn't, her head would likely explode. She writes to share the crazy products of her imagination with the world and hopes that you find them as entertaining as she does. Her books are for young adults or the young at heart. After all, growing up is overrated. When she isn't wrapped up in projects, Zara can be found listening to music or hanging out with friends.

Virtualbookworm (VBW) Publishing was founded by a writer frustrated by the long wait time and occasional heartbreak often associated with the publishing industry. After researching the various "alternatives," he discovered a number of subsidy publishers that would publish any author ... for a price. Unfortunately, many reviewers (and readers) thumb their noses at books from such houses, since all it takes is cash to get published by them.
Then he discovered self publishing and the endless opportunities it presented. However, such a venture requires countless hours of research of printers, proofreaders, artists, etc. And after publication, even more time is consumed trying to market the book.
So, Virtualbookworm.com was established as a "clearinghouse" for authors, since it offers virtually everything under one roof. Although we now charge setup and design fees, those costs are kept to a minimum so as to cover all expenses. And, as with "traditional" publishers, we carefully review each manuscript and only offer contracts to authors who truly have exceptional manuscripts. We don't print garbage, and we want our authors to proudly say they were published by Virtualbookworm. If we accept your book for publication, you can rest assured that it will be sold next to other quality books, and not just work that had enough money behind it. And, you'll receive some of the best royalties in the business!
Since our initial costs are so low, we want your books to sell as much as you do.
