Bound by fate, torn by duty—can we survive the darkness together?

A daughter longing for her family… I was just a sassy college student until I was dragged into a realm of magic and danger. My hidden powers emerge when an emotionally hardened demon named Niki saves my life by sharing his soul. All I want is to return to my family, but a rogue mage’s killing spree and my growing attraction to Niki complicate everything.

A demon without hope… As the head demon enforcer, I’m tasked with stopping the murderous mage, but Johnna, the rebellious human, keeps turning my world upside down. She insists she can help, but it’s all I can do to prevent destruction—and resist the urge to kiss her senseless.

A tangled web of deceit, chaos, and murder… Together, we must trust each other and unite our strengths. The fate of the Dark World hangs in the balance, and our bond might be the key. Can our connection overcome the darkness, or will we be torn apart by the forces that threaten us?

In Mage We Trust, the first novel in the fantastical Of Mystics and Mayhem series, gives you another taste of Heidi’s multiverse saga that includes Flight of the Night Witches, Kingdom of the Elf Lords, and her upcoming Celtic Immortal series. If you like intense world-building and tension-filled plots with laugh-out-loud humor and romance, you will enjoy Heidi Vanlandingham’s spin-off series. It’s a guaranteed unputdownable romantic fantasy thriller.

Reviews

“I’m so glad I gave this book a try. It was a great book with a creative plot. The characters were interesting and the main characters were funny and likeable. I loved the witty dialogue between the characters and there were many laugh out loud moments. The relationship between Niki and Johnna was perfect and I loved seeing their feelings evolve for each other over the course of the book. The author took me to another world and I can’t wait to read the next book in this series. Loved, loved it!”~kindle customer

“I started reading this book not knowing what to expect and stayed up half the night. I couldn’t put it down. Johnna is a heroine who gets in your head and sets up camp. Trust me, this is a good thing. I adored Niki and his inner conflict. I mean, just think of the age gap between a demon who’s been around a couple of millennia and a twenty-something. The connection these two share was pretty intense and I loved every minute of it. The world-building was intricate and beautifully described. There were so many layers and as a fantasy reader, once I entered the Dark World, I didn’t want to leave. There’s plenty of action in this story as well as plenty of romance. If you’re looking for your next series to binge-read, you’ll want to start with In Mage We Trust. In Mage We Trust is one of the best books I’ve read in 2021. Highly recommend!” ~N.N. Light
