Flowers Need Rain – Preston Pablo, Banx & Ranx This song is full of so much loving need which is exactly what grows between Ava & Sammy in Healing Magic & Playboys. From chapter one Sammy has a craving for just a drop of Ava’s attention, like flowers thirsty for rain. (And with him being a water elemental, I love a song with liquid metaphors!) And these lyrics connect throughout the story, with each of our MCs becoming vital to one another. ‘And my head gets dark and heavy, But then I see your face’ – This always has me thinking of the scene where Sammy discovers Ava is sick, and he does his best to take care of her. That’s when she realizes he’s more than just a self-centered playboy.   Black Magic – Little Mix This magical bop matches beautifully with our witch heroine’s seduction skills. Because Ava is not only a witch … she’s got some succubus in her veins too! She thrives off lust magic and is not shy about filling her cauldron. Sammy only needed one sip of her secret potion … and he’s gone for her.   What a Man Gotta Do – Jonas…

I mean, my whole family does, and mine is out of control at the moment, so I wouldn’t call myself a talented fire elemental. Still, humans would probably think it’s cool if they knew about it.   Significant other? There’s this guy Aspen Baumann, we dated in high school, and he just moved back to town. We’re not anything right now, just friends who flirt. Honestly, he’s too good for me. Smart and kind and hot. So hot. I was the one to break things off because I didn’t want to hold him back, but I don’t think…
