Charisma Carter was once Charisma Silverstorm—until her family cast her out at eighteen because her magic was too weak by their standards. She rebuilt herself as a Magical Engineer, compensating for limited power with extraordinary technical skill. The moment she earns her diploma, all six of the Arcane elite families want her—badly enough to compete for her loyalty with bribes, charm, and dangerously attractive heirs.

Charisma is a self-described nerd extraordinaire—clumsy, sarcastic, and disarmingly honest. Beneath the social awkwardness is a fiercely intelligent woman who refuses to be defined by her family's rejection. She earns every ally through competence rather than magic.

Across six books, Charisma navigates political intrigue, assassins, rebellions, and coups while slowly building a found family from rivals who all want to claim her. The series weaves a slow-burn reverse harem romance around escalating magical-world stakes, as Charisma transforms from an outcast engineer into the pivotal power holding the Arcane world together.
