About this ebook

Keep calm and call an exorcist.


Most people don’t believe in the supernatural—at least until a ghost starts making the walls in their house bleed. That’s when they call Bea Romo Reyes. She’s my best friend and roommate, and she works as a freelance exorcist and paranormal consultant. Meeting her plunged me into a supernatural world both wonderful and terrifying, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.


But there’s something Bea’s not telling me, and her secret might be more dangerous than the demons she’s hired to exorcise.


Smoke and Hellfire contains four episodic, novelette-length stories:


The Scent of Brimstone

When my friend dies mysteriously and her house stinks of brimstone, I know a demon is to blame. And when it threatens my friend’s family, I do the only thing I can think of: I call a professional exorcist.


An Unfair Bargain

Bea and I investigate a missing woman who wandered into the forest at night like she was possessed. But the truth of what happened is—if possible—even worse than demonic possession, and we might not make it out of the forest alive.


Drowning, Drowning

A ghost tour in St. Augustine accidentally raises a vengeful spirit who starts picking off the tour group one by one. Can Bea banish the ghost in time to save the young tour guides from a watery grave?


The Corporate Job

I always knew corporations were evil, but this one takes it a step further when they summon a demon to increase their profit margins. With a possessed CFO chained up in the basement and Bea’s exorcism failing, the demon reveals a sinister secret that could change everything.


If you like female friendships, action-packed urban fantasy, and a touch of supernatural horror, then you’ll love Smoke and Hellfire. Read it now and start the paranormal adventure.

This book was awesome! The characters are well defined, likeable, and we get to watch them grow through the stories. Maggie and Bea are nearly polar opposites, but they work perfectly for this book. The stories themselves are engrossing, pulling from well known supernatural creatures without being cliche or repetetive. Overall, I strongly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys the supernatural, and strong and fiesty female characters. Give it a read! You won't regret it.

this was a great start to the Shadow Journals series, it does what I was hoping for. It does a great job in being a urban fantasy novel and did a great job in creating interesting characters. I look forward to read more in this series. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
