Catalyst (A Tethered Novel) Read online

  Finally, my mind settled on three things, each of them standing out like a brightly shining star in an obsidian night sky.

  One, no one could do anymore Hoodoo on me.

  Two, Theo was an Elemental somehow as well as a practicing Hoodoo person.

  And three, I was now tethered to him, whatever that meant.

  To Be Continued In…

  COMING SOON!

  I’d like to give a special thanks to Regina Wamba of Mae I Design for her beautiful cover creation, H. Danielle Crabtree for her amazing editing skills, and Stephanie Parent for her eagle-eye proofreading ability.

  More special thanks to my family and friends for their endless support. My mom, who still reads everything I write and claims each book tops the last. My sister, Heather, who enjoys my characters almost as much as me.

  Also to Alyssa Rose Ivy, you’ve made this whole writing experience that much better. So glad to have met you along this journey of mine.

  And to the readers, for your eager anticipation for this novel to be in your hands. You fuel me without even realizing it.

Jennifer lives with her husband and two children, who endure listening to songs that spur inspiration on repeat and tolerate her love for all paranormal, teenage-targeted TV shows.
