Found Magic

Godstone: an ancient artifact, about the size of a man's thumb, that allows the bearer (a "conduit") to channel the powers of a god.

And thanks to the infamous Sofia Messner, who channeled Sumerian god Ishtar and murdered a man on livestream, everyone knows they exist... and everyone wants one. Since then, godstones have become illegal, the US military has been stockpiling them, and secret societies of illegal channelers have popped up across the world.

When Rafael Marquez, front man for the up-and-coming band Rage Riot, returns to Texas to sober up and finish his education, the last thing he expects is for a godstone to literally roll itself to his feet. The chance to channel Coyote-an Aztec trickster, god of music and parties-is something he cannot turn down. But a new conduit is a weak conduit, and magical badasses from around the country arrive to steal his acquisition before he can learn how to use it.

He convinces a fellow newbie-the gorgeous streetfighter Freyja-to partner up with him. She's equally inexperienced with magic, but she can throw a punch. And an ax. And he wants her bad in all the worst ways. But his mysterious partner has a history so secret even she doesn't know it all. When it leads them to a magic so powerful everyone-other conduits, every secret society, the US freaking government-would kill for it, they'll need more than axes and beginner-level magic to stay alive...

Found Magic is the first book in a five part romantic urban fantasy series. Part 2, Death Magic, is available now!
