Sometimes, the legacy you inherit is the one you were born to change.

Windhaven Academy isn't just another school, and Autumn Blackwood is about to discover why. Accepted under mysterious circumstances, Autumn finds herself in a place where the boundaries between the living and the dead blur, where an ancient legacy of magic and danger weaves through her own bloodline.

Autumn is thrust into a world of secrets, lies, and a curse that has haunted Windhaven for generations. As she navigates the complexities of her newfound abilities as a necromancer, the discovery of her family's deep-rooted connection to the academy sets her on a chilling path. Surrounded by students with their own hidden powers, Autumn must uncover the truth behind her family's past and the academy's dark purpose before it's too late.

But Windhaven Academy hides more than just ghosts. A tapestry of friendship, love, and betrayal unfolds as Autumn and her newfound friends dig deeper into the mysteries of the academy and their own identities. With every turn of the page, "Secret Legacy" takes you on a journey where the past and the present collide, revealing secrets that were meant to stay buried.

Will Autumn embrace her legacy and the power that comes with it, or will the academy's secrets lead her down a path of destruction?

"Secret Legacy" is the first book in the Windhaven Witches series, promising a blend of suspense, mystery, and paranormal intrigue that will leave readers spellbound.

Join Autumn as she steps into a world where every secret reveals a darker truth, and where her legacy is the key to unlocking a future she never could have imagined.

From the Author

A Special Note from Carissa Andrews:

Do you know someone with cancer?

In 2016, I lost my brother to brain cancer. It flipped our family's world upside down. That's why in 2020, when this book was released, I used it to raise more than $500 for the American Cancer Society.
To those who purchased a copy of this book, I thank you!

Thrilling and a rollercoaster!
4.2/5 — Secret Legacy.I was able to request an ARC of #SecretLegacy by Carissa Andrews through #netgalley. I was not paid in any shape or form, and this review is purely from my own thoughts.•So let me start off this review with one word — ROLLERCOASTER. I love it when an author is able to pull me into another dimension, and I love it even more when they throw all these plot twists and surprises at me. There were a ton of moments where I had to take a minute to re-collect myself and my thoughts because my mind was in a whirlwind from certain situations and scenarios. I would also categorize this as a light romance/thriller kind of book. There were a lot of gasp and shock worthy parts in this book that I loved, and wasn’t expecting at all. It was so dark and twisty, and I was on the edge of my seat. It was slow in the beginning, but started picking up about a little more than halfway through. I am already dying for the next book because that’s how good the cliffhanger was. Seriously a phenomenal novel and author. If you like light romance, unexpected twists, and supernatural characters, then you’ll absolutely enjoy this book.

Reading this book makes it obvious there's so much more to come and so much more you don't know about this world the author is taking you into. New ideas and revelations are introduced well, with mystery and intrigue and it makes you curious! I want to know more, and more is provided but not so much that the story is predictable. A very good read, and (thank God) the main female character is not a "I've been done wrong so I'm mad at everyone" type! It's refreshing! Moving on to the next one! ❤️

The storyline is really good & keeps you engrossed from beginning to the end. The story starts as a regular girl who receives admittance to Windhaven Academy which is for supernatural & she has no idea of het actual history is & so the story carries you along learning her history as you do. This is really a good book & you should give it a try.

This is definitely a YA story. I kept forgetting that the MC is 20 years old. The story is good but also annoying because every time you think something will be revealed, it's not. Then you get to the end and it's continued in the next book. Never have liked that ploy.
Also, the use of eyebrows, I guess to show expression, was a little weird: eyebrows flipping up to the hairline, tugging in, out and up in the middle.
Haven't decided if I will get the next book yet.

I love paranormal books! I admit I usually do not care for the YA ones that involve like a school setting.( I have been out of school so long I hardly remember going) LOL :) I read this one because I like the Author and her news letters so I pre-ordered in support. I was very surprised how I was grabbed in the first few chapters and loved the ride. Does end on a cliffhanger of sorts BUT thankfully the second book is out. Take a chance it is really good. I will continue to see what happens next...I did not like Wade from the beginning and still don't, so I need to know what's the deal.

This book is a page turner, I did not want to put it down! The writing flows smoothly. Imagery is wonderful. Characters are fresh for a ghost story type of book. Mystery abounds. I really enjoyed the characters relationships with one another. I would say this would be a great young adult book, but I am a half century old and was memorized by it. I highly recommend this book. Starting book 2 today!

Wow!!! Instantly hooked by this mysterious, supernatural series! Autumn was raised by her divorced mother knowing supernatural existed. She'd long hoped that she'd show a glimmer of power, but she'd come to accept she was merely human. So how and why did she suddenly gain an admission packet to a school for supernaturals? On top of that, it was a full ride!! Thus starts the beginning of her eyes being opened...just not as fast as she'd like. Upon moving in with her long absent father, and showing up to the school a slew of odd things happen. She also meets an interesting cast of characters that make her aware all might not be as it appears. Autumn goes on the search for the truth, and her legacy. Go on the exciting journey with her. I absolutely can't wait for the follow up!

I enjoyed the story, but it was presented in such a way that it prevented me from wholeheartedly embracing it. I will definitely be interested in the next book as I would like to see where the characters get to as their skills are developed in the witch school environment.

What a great start to the series this was. I read it in an afternoon it was totally enjoyable from the start.
Autumn gets a place at the magical academy, even though she had never applied. After a row with her mum she goes to the local cemetery to do some thinking in peace & meets Cole.
Could she have supernatural powers, she always assumed she didn't, but what if she was wrong?
No spoiler alert here, read the book its fabulous
