Jaxx Carter is ready for a summer at the beach. Being a nanny in the Hamptons seemed like the perfect thing to do after high school graduation, so it didn't take a lot of convincing from her best friend to get her to agree to the job - even though she did feel like a fish out of water among the beautiful people that she now saw all around her.

May loved having her granddaughters visit. Ever since she'd shared the magical land of Faylea with them, they'd begged their parents to let them come every chance they had. Hearing their stories after a trip to the magical world made May's heart soar. She knew that they were the perfect guardians and she loved hearing how their powers were developing more and more after each visit.

Trinity could hardly believe the adventure that had become her life. She was used to activities that got her heart racing. Soccer and a need for speed typically kept her from getting bored. But this guardian business that she, her sisters, and cousin were now entrusted with? This was a whole new level of heart racing adventure! She'd already met flying dragons and fairies in the magical land. It was hard to imagine that much else could surprise her. Yet, what she is about to discover will surprise her beyond her wildest dreams.

Selah loved to visit her grandparents. Grandma May always baked her favorite cookies and played fun games with her. And now Grandma May has trusted Selah, her sisters, and her cousin with a very big secret. In all of her five years, Selah had never imagined anything as incredible as the land of Faylea. And she never could have imagined that one day she'd be able to have special powers. She definitely couldn't imagine that one day she'd meet a monster that would become her friend.

Kelsie Moore doesn't have much to complain about these days. She is loving life working as a nanny in the Hamptons alongside her best friend for the summer. She's had lots of sun and beach time. She's also had lots of dates which would typically make her very happy. But ever since her best friend coupled up with a boy from the beach, for the first time, Kelsie finds herself wanting more than just a fun night out with a boy.

There was nothing May liked better than having her granddaughters visit, especially when it came to the holidays. They loved playing games, building snowmen, and drinking hot chocolate together. But this Christmas was going to be extra special. Grandma May felt that they were finally old enough for the surprise. They were old enough to keep her secrets and young enough to still believe in magic.

Ava can hardly believe her eyes when she sees the tiny magical creature. Fairies are real? Then again, she'd seen a lot of things that were new to her since she and her three cousins had become the guardians of the magical world called Faylea. She'd almost gotten used to the idea of a sweet flying dragon, but she never in her wildest dreams would think that she'd be talking to a fairy.

Nevaeh is on a mission! She - along with her two sisters and cousin - has a job to do, and it's not just a boring old normal job. They have been entrusted as the guardians of the most amazing - and shocking - magical world. And they need to get back there as soon as possible because when you let creatures in from the human world, such as cute little kitty cats, apparently, very bad things can happen.

Ginger was the most positive and optimistic fairy in all of Sunflower Grove. She almost always has a smile on her face and a good thing to say about any situation. When a big storm has the fairies inside the mushroom palace for days on end, tempers flare and not even Ginger's cheerful mood can brighten the day. In fact, Ginger's cheerful mood seems to make one fairy, in particular, very angry, and Ginger can't stand the thought of being around fairies that are mad at her.

Missy was the youngest and tiniest fairy in all of Sunflower Grove. She was also by far the most helpful fairy. Spic and span day - the day that all the fairies worked together to clean up the grove - was Missy's favorite day of the year. And this year she just knew that leader fairy, Ava, was going to give her an important job.

Devi was the most patient fairy in all of Sunflower Grove. Once she set her mind to a task, she would give it her all to complete it, no matter how long it took. Unfortunately for Devi, she'd chosen the exact same time as the fairies' annual flight to the top of the mountain to attempt to complete her current secret project.

When a colleague is murdered before her eyes, she is forced to question what she does. Confronted with a chance to save a girl's life, Hank must choose between doing what's right or protecting those she loves. Hacker is the novella prequel to Sulan, a fast-action YA dystopian series.

Favian of Draebard has been a Seer since he was 13. His visions are never wrong. Now, he's leading a slave revolt along with a crazy shapeshifter, a ghost with an attitude problem, and the most stubborn, amazing woman he's ever met. The good news is, it looks like they might succeed. The bad news is, he'll have to die before they do. But if Favian tells the others what the future holds, he knows they'll move heaven and earth to stop it happening - even if doing so sentences untold thousands to subjugation and slavery at the hands of an evil tyrant.

Kathrael, Favian, and Ithric are traveling back to Rhyth - a city in the grip of chaos and rioting, teetering on the verge of full-blown rebellion. There, they hope to make a difference by lending their unique talents to the mysterious leaders of the slave underground. But with Favian having prophetic dreams, Ithric fighting his inner lion, and Kathrael questioning her sanity as the ghostly voices around her grow ever more consuming, can their fragile new relationship survive in a city that takes no prisoners?

Fifteen-year-old Courtney wants to be normal like her friends. But there's something frighteningly different about her - and it's not just the mysterious tattoo her conspiracy-obsessed grandfather marked her with when she was a child. Courtney is being in visited in her bedroom at night by alien creatures claiming to have shared an alliance with her grandfather. And either she's going crazy, or they're trying to recruit her and take over her mind.

Kathrael is a nobody - an escaped Rhytheeri slave with a face disfigured by an acid attack and a giant chip on her shoulder. Despite being alone in the world, with no possessions other than the clothes on her back, she has vowed to lead a rebellion against the brutal overseers who once owned her. First, though, she's going to murder the cowardly bastard of a shape-shifter who was prophesied to save them all, and didn't.

Carivel, Andoc, and Senovo have refused to let circumstances tear them away from each other. Draebard's tribal chieftain does not approve of Andoc's decision to continue with the unconventional relationship, and now, on top of everything else, war is looming after the combined forces of Draebard and Meren destroyed the Alyrion Empire's military outpost in northern Eburos. Senovo and Carivel have long relied on Andoc to be their rock. Their touchstone. But when Andoc's future is shattered by betrayal.

Hi, I'm Nicole. I met Zara - she's my life coach - a few months ago when I became one of the first members of the B.I.G. Girls Club. I hadn't even realized the bad space I was in until she showed me that there was another way to be living my life now, regardless of what the numbers on the scale tell me. And isn't it crazy how much those numbers can affect our moods? Now I'm fully onboard and determined to change my life, regardless of what Joe - he's my boyfriend - says.

Carivel, Andoc, and Senovo have defied convention by declaring their love for each other. Carivel is a pariah - a female who has been quietly living as a man.

When their secrets are finally revealed to the village elders, they fear dragging Andoc down with them. Next in line to become Draebard's tribal chieftain, Andoc risks his position by continuing with such an unorthodox relationship.

Hi, I'm Zara, warrior princess. I don't usually tell that last bit to strangers, but I say it in my head all the time. It's one of the many mantras that have helped me to get to where I am today. And believe me when I say that I've come a long way. Besides, if you're a woman and you happen to have ever struggled with issues of self-esteem, we're probably gonna be fast friends anyway, so I won't hold anything (much) back.Oh, and Zara wasn't the name I was born with - but you'll find out more about that in the book.
