Dear Diary,
I'm not ready for this, not at all. Of course, it doesn't matter what I'm ready for, life is throwing it at me anyway...literally. After dad vanished, mom moved Holly and me to a new town in Texas where everything is just a bit...more. I thought California was on the cutting edge, but we haven't seen anything yet and this house is out to prove it to us. Maybe Angie—a Texan version of our fairy godmother—will be able to help us get settled with the Hellhound and the new magic we discover.
Please send help,
Phaedra
