"A witch struggling to regain what she has lost casts a dangerous spell and finds much more than she expected in this enchanting new romcom by New York Times bestselling Lana Harper. Seven months after having been hit by an accidental power surge that nearly obliterated her memory, Delilah Harlow is still picking up the pieces. Her once diamond-sharp mind has become shaky and unreliable, and bristly, self-sufficient Delilah is forced to rely on friends, family, and her raven familiar for help. In an effort to reclaim her wits and former independence, she casts a forbidden blood spell meant to harness power with healing capacities. While the spell does restore clarity, it also unexpectedly turns Delilah into an irresistible beacon for the kind of malevolent supernatural creatures that have never ventured into Thistle Grove before. One night-just as things are about to go terribly sideways with a rogue succubus-a mysterious stranger appears in the nick of time to save Delilah's soul. Gorgeous, sultry, and as dangerous as the knives she carries, Catriona Quinn is a hunter of monsters-and half-human half-creature herself, the kind of sly and morally gray fae Delilah would normally find horrifying. Though Delilah balks at the idea of a partnership, she has no choice but to roll the dice on their collaboration. As the two delve deeper into the power that underlies Thistle Grove, they uncover not only the town's hidden history but also a risky attraction that could upend Delilah's entire life"--

The Alchemist's Handbook is a major contribution to the study of alchemy. What was formerly handed down under oath of secrecy is presented here in clear, concise, practical working manual for the sincere aspirant.

Alchemy, the author tells us, is the "raising of vibrations." In his preface, Israel Regardie tells us that alchemy provides "both a means to synthesize all the other siences and a training of the intellectual and spiritual faculties." This handbook discusses in detail: *The basic fundamental principles of alchemy *Directions for the formation of an inexpensive home laboratory, with illustrations of the necessary equipment *Step by step instructions for the work of the Lesser Circulation, the alchemical transformation within the plant kingdom - the necessary requisite for any work in the mineral kingdom. This book is not intended for the merely curious, but rather for dedicated students who are willing to devote themselves to the ardurous life-time work demanded by the study. Such a study, Dr. Regardie tells us, is "worth its weight in gold."
