The Bea-YOU-tiful Tour

In Shadows of Magic

by Alison F Prince

Published July 11, 2013 by Astraea Press

Mandy McKinney lives the charmed life. She is beautiful, athletic, popular, dating the hottest jock in school, and certainly doesn’t have any time for her loser twin sister. But Mandy also has a secret. When the truth is unveiled, her world is twisted upside down, and her very life is at stake.

Mandy’s twin sister, Brianna, has never had any success in the dating department. When Brianna finally meets the guy of her dreams, it turns out that he has secrets of his own. Dangerous secrets. Just her luck.

The twins are about to be swept away into a world of beauty and power beyond their wildest imaginations where nothing is what is seems, danger is lurking in the shadows, and their only chance of survival is finding themselves, and each other, once again.

Bea- YOU-tiful: Real Confidence in Yourself

Have Your Own Interests

Mandy McKinney is the most popular girl in school. She’s the head cheerleader, star softball player, the life of the party, and Spring Queen every year. But she’s not happy. She’s just going through the motions every day. The truth is: Mandy has a big secret. She’s a witch, and she uses her magical powers to enhance her appearance and athletic performance. Mandy isn’t really any good at cheer leading, and she doesn’t care about softball. Mandy wishes she was brave enough to do what she really loves, but her social life would suffer if she spent her time reading and bird watching instead of partying with the beautiful people.

Mandy’s twin sister, Brianna, doesn’t fit in with the popular crowd. She doesn’t wear the right clothes. She’s never invited to the cool parties. She doesn’t hang with the in-crowd. But Brianna finds her passion in music. She takes up playing the guitar, and her friends join together to form a band. Even though Brianna struggles to learn the chords, her friends are supportive. They practice hard, and sign up for the Battle of the Bands. But without magical powers, will Brianna be able to perform?

Join witches Brianna and Mandy on their magical journey of self discovery in the new Young Adult Paranormal novel by Alison F. Prince, In Shadows of Magic.
