Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

A really great novel ! We have the same set like in majorities of novels with a « Mary sue character » (with all the characteristics : transmigration, OP, cold, assassin...). The same goes for the ML. But the heroine is not the FL but the mob character ! And those characteristics that we like in the FL will just appear hypocritical ... 😉

The writer seems to be creating a complete story from all aspects. It really amazed me, to be honest.

Today, I was pampered by the devil again.

The world-famous demon king had fallen in love with a little girl and had been pampered by her side every day. The little girl was beautiful, soft and delicate, like a fairy. She gently tugged at the Great Demon King's sleeve and looked at him with a pair of starry eyes. "Big brother, can you buy me candy?" Her smile was so sweet that it made one's heart soften. Everyone said that the Great Demon King was cruel and heartless. However, when faced with the little girl who said that she loved him once every day, the tips of his ears secretly turned red. At that time, everyone realized that the Great Demon King had found a wife to play with! -- The throne of the Great Demon King was empty, and the courtiers urged him to appoint an empress every day. That night, the Great Demon King pressed Yan Jiu down." You've grown up. Now, you can either marry me or be eaten by me. Choose one." Hmm?" Remembering that the Great Demon King had once dug up her bones and scattered her ashes, Yan Jiu's expression changed. She took out a knife and stabbed the Great Demon King. She smiled and asked, "Shall I scatter your ashes first?" Everyone thought that the little girl was weak and weak. She had no status or background, so she was definitely easy to bully. However, they did not know that the little girl was a big shot. On the surface, she was soft and harmless, but in fact, she was like a demon king who killed without batting an eye.
