“All men are by nature equal, made of the same earth by one workman, and however we deceive ourselves, as dear unto God is the poor peasant as the mighty prince.”
—Plato
Beatrice De Novo thought she had left the supernatural world behind…for the most part. But when the past becomes the present, will she leave her quiet life in Los Angeles to follow a mystery she thought had abandoned her? Where has Giovanni Vecchio been, and why has he returned? Giovanni has his own questions, and he’s looking to her for answers.
The sequel to A Hidden Fire will reunite Beatrice and Giovanni to continue their search through the past while both wrestle with the future. When the world as you knew it has changed forever, is there any way you can turn back?

Read full series description
"Where did you get the inspiration for The Elemental Mysteries?"
- This is a really common question with no clear answer except my overactive imagination. In a more general sense, I usually start with characters first. That is, characters come to my fevered brain, and the plots to my books usually follow that, not the other way round. So, I guess you could say that the Elemental Mysteries are inspired by the character of Giovanni Vecchio.
How many books will there be in the series?
- Gio and Beatrice’s story will be told in four books, but they do show up in others. Their series is finished, but I will continue to write in the Elemental World as long as it’s fun. Building From Ashes (Carwyn and Brigid’s story) is already out. I’m writing Blood and Sand right now, which features Baojia. Waterlocked is an Elemental World novella originally published here on the site, and it’s available in stores now. I’m going to branch out with my Cambio Springs series and a few other ideas, but Idon’t foresee abandoning this world anytime soon."
