ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 20, 2019
Once upon a time, Harper Rhodes was just a normal, boring, college freshman.
Or so she thought.
That was all before she was kidnapped by a scheming vampire and thrown into the secret world of supernatural beings at the Wicked Academy.
The coven masters who run the academy insist that Harper is a witch, possibly the last one in the world, and that the fate of their kind is in her hands. It all sounds ridiculous to her, but either way, they refuse to let her leave.
While being wooed by warlocks and stalked by Drake, an unapologetic vampire, Harper begins to fall for Rowan, a gruff shapeshifter who is the only good thing about her new life, even though he’s completely off-limits.
When the masters eventually get tired of waiting on Harper to choose a warlock mate, they decide to take matters into their own hands.
Knowing that none of her admirers will be able to reach her in time, Harper will have to figure out how to finally embrace magic and wield her new powers to save herself.
And if there’s one thing she’s actually learned at the Wicked Academy, it’s that sometimes being bad can feel really good.

REVIEW: BAD WITCH is the first instalment in Lane Hart’s contemporary, new adult WICKED ACADEMY erotic, paranormal romance focusing on the members of an elite institute for the paranormal known as Wicked Academy. This is eighteen year old, witch Harper , warlock Kingston, vampire Drake, and tiger shifter Rowan’s story line.
NOTE: BAD WITCH is a reverse harem story line with same sex and multiple partner sexual situations.
Told from four first person points of view (Harper, Kingston, Drake, Rowan) BAD WITCH follows naïve and innocent, eighteen year old college freshman Harper Rhodes as she finds herself a prisoner of the elite Wicked Academy for the paranormal. Having no idea as to her heritage, Harper easily accepts that she is something more. Believed to be the only female witch in existence Harper soon discovers that the ‘masters’ in charge of the Academy, including Kingston’s father Voss, have plans to mate Harper with another powerful warlock. But things don’t go according to plan as Harper finds herself attracted to more than one supernatural being including a warlock who may or may not be attracted to men. What ensues is a shift in the power dynamic at the Wicked Academy, as Harper slowly comes into her powers; and the highly erotic relationship between Harlow, Kingston, Drake and Rowan quickly becomes a permanent arrangement.
BAD WITCH is a story of erotica; of one young woman’s venture into the world of the supernatural, and the power and control of several species by the people in charge. The premise is entertaining; the romance is erotic and spicy; the characters are energetic and sassy.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 16, 2019
Welcome back to Wicked Academy where magic is always in the air.
Newly turned, brooding vampire Cash doesn’t have anything in common with Zaine, his young warlock roommate at Wicked Academy. At least he didn’t until they both find themselves trying to win over the same mesmerizing woman.
Men have always been drawn to Nadia, the odd girl with crimson hair and lavender-colored eyes. And finally, after thirty years, she’s about to find out why.
The unrelenting magnetic pull Cash and Zaine both feel toward Nadia isn’t just a coincidence. She seems to have the same effect on every guy she ever touches. The problem is that just one night in bed with her could cost a human or warlock male their life unless she figures out how to stop draining the life force out of them.
When someone comes after Nadia, it’ll take all of her lovers to keep her safe. But the people who want her are desperate for her unparalleled powers. They won’t stop until she’s fighting for them.

REVIEW:BAD OMEN is the second instalment in LA Hart’s (aka Lane Hart) contemporary, adult WICKED ACADEMY paranormal, erotic, reverse harem romance series focusing on the members of an elite institute for the paranormal known as Wicked Academy. This is Nadia, Cash (vampire), and Zaine’s (warlock) storyline with the addition of, Evander (psychic) and Trent’s (shifter).
NOTE: BAD OMEN is a reverse harem romance with multiple partners and multiple sexual scenarios.
Told from five first person perspectives (Nadia, Cash, Zaine, Trent and Evander) BAD OMEN follows in the wake of a grocery store armed robbery wherein Cash saves the life of Nadia, and in the ensuing days discovers that his attraction to Nadia is equally matched by his roommate’s attraction to the girl in question. When several attempts are made on Nadia’s life, Zaine and Cash work out a schedule to protect the woman that calls to their hearts. But all is not well in Nadia’s less than well-ordered life, and our heroine is surprised to discover she is much more than the human female she had always professed herself to be. What ensues is the building relationship between Nadia, Cash and Zaine, with the addition of Trent and Evander into their reverse harem relationship, and the potential fall-out as several supernaturals have targeted our heroine for her hidden powers.
Nadia’s insatiable appetite for $ex is matched by the men with whom she is intimately involved but Nadia’s need is out of her control, and it will take a psychic to expose the supernatural element that directs all of Nadia’s wants and desires.
There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including Trent (shifter), Evander (psychic), as well as Harper, Kingston, Drake and Rowan (Bad Witch #1), and Kingston’s father Voss. The requisite evil has many faces.
BAD OMEN is a quick read; a highly erotic, sexually graphic story of one woman’s baser needs, and the men who are willing to ‘sacrifice’ themselves for the greater cause. The premise is interesting; the characters are numerous and colorful; the romance is limited as their needs are controlled by a powerful pull.
