Salyt & Pepper: Drake Academy-Book 1. YOUNG ADULT

Salyt & Pepper

Bishop Academy – Book One

Magic was never supposed to find her... but destiny had other plans.

Pepper Samuels thought she was headed to an elite prep school on a full scholarship—a chance to escape her small-town Kansas life and build a future.

Instead...

She discovers she's descended from one of the most powerful magical bloodlines in existence.

Hidden beneath the prestigious Blakeway Prep lies Bishop Academy, a secret school where witches have trained for generations. Overnight, Pepper is thrust into a world of ancient covens, forbidden magic, family secrets, and dangerous prophecies.

As she struggles to master abilities she never knew she possessed, one mystery overshadows them all:

What happened to the twin sister she barely remembers?

Then there's Matthew...

Dark. Protective. Mysterious.

The chemistry between them is impossible to ignore, yet everyone seems determined to keep them apart. Powerful families have spent generations controlling magical bloodlines, and Pepper soon realizes her future—and her heart—have already been planned by others.

But destiny doesn't always follow the rules.

As hidden enemies close in and long-buried secrets begin to surface, Pepper must decide whether to accept the future others have chosen for her...or forge her own path, even if it threatens the magical world itself.
