The Witchery by S. Isabelle

"The Witchery is a dark, delicious delight. S. Isabelle is a debut to watch." --
Justina Ireland, New York Times bestselling author of Dread Nation
The Haunting Season is here and the Wolves are awake.
Haelsford, Florida, is a hellmouth. Or at least, that's what Logan, a new witch
struggling to control her powers, thinks when she arrives at Mesmortes Coven
Academy. She is immediately taken under the wing of the infamous Red Three:
Iris, a deathwitch, who wants nothing more than to break the town's curse; Thalia,
the talented greenwitch, on the run from her religious family and a past that still
haunts her; and Jailah, one of the most extraordinary witches at the academy
whose thirst for power may lead her down a dark path.
With the Haunting Season approaching, Wolves will soon rise from the Swamp to
kill, and the humans and witches must work together to survive the yearly
onslaught. However, the history between humans and witches is long and
bloodied, with the current truce hard-won and hanging in the balance. And this
year, the stakes couldn't be higher as two boys from Hammersmitt School
prepare to make their first sacrifices to the witches in exchange for protection.
But when students start turning up dead, Iris, Thalia, Jailah, and Logan realize
they'll have to harness their powers and stop the Wolves themselves. Yet old
dangers lie in wait, and the cost to break the curse may be greater than any witch
or human could ever know...
