How To Raise The Dead - Leigh Kelsey

Blood is magic, murder is rampant, and the teachers are unfairly cute. Welcome to Second Breath Academy.

All necromancer-in-training Kati wants is to learn how to cast a death magic spell, keep her head down, and get through her first term without anything out of the ordinary happening.

Last year, a student was murdered in the woods behind the academy, but this year is going to be different.

At least until SBA's groundskeeper turns up dead, covered in black magic runes. And thanks to her brother's reputation as the new dark lord, Kati becomes suspect number one. Even the staff think she's a killer.

At least there's the sweet, handsome guy who sees Kati as more than a dangerous black magician. The bad news is he's off limits, and any relationship with him is a hundred percent forbidden. Because he's her death magic teacher. And if anyone finds out, they could both be kicked out.

Second Breath Academy takes place in an academy for necromancers and reapers, full of magic, mystery, and romance. SBA is SLOW BURN RH and builds both heat and love interests with each book. All characters are adults, and the series will contain F/M and F/F romance, plus a teacher/student romance!

This is a full-length novel at 71,000 words.
