The year is 1917, and the Russian Empire is on verge of collapse. Florence Cavell - codename Geist - takes her special force team of sorcerers into allied territory in an effort to hunt down spies and keep the Russian royals alive.

Omorose Bouchene has a secret - magic. There's only one problem. At the age of seven, an earthquake struck, catapulting her into a new world. A land made of skyscrapers and cell phones. Fast cars and fluorescent lights, where magic isn't supposed to exist and anyone who wields it is the enemy. But after 10 years of hiding, she's desperate to find a place where she can be free. Because all magic comes with a curse, and her curse is time - every ounce of power she uses strips days off of her life. The clock's winding down, and the only option left is to escape to the realm of the Beast.

Lust and lies? Now those, Jovi can handle. But falling for a demon hunter like Nash Rogan? Really dumb move for a succubus on the run....

One donor to three vampires. A promise of forever. But what if forever doesn’t come? I was certain that I would spend the rest of my life with the three vampires I’m madly in love with. I had my heart set on being a Divine. I gave up everything I knew as a donor to assure it. But as it turns out, I knew nothing as a donor. I still don’t know anything. I’m not even sure I know myself. Because of this, I might be a traitor to humanity, and rebel humans want me dead. As lines blur between who I can and can’t trust, I struggle to adapt to a life of freedom.

The only thing in the universe I’m certain of is my Blood Matching to my three perfect vampires. And Kingston, Diego, and Austin will do anything to see to it that I have forever with them. I want it so badly that it hurts. But I should be used to not getting everything I want. With the rising threat of our enemies, even our allies start to question my worth as a future Divine Heir and how much trouble I am. Because the future of the Blood Match Program shouldn’t have fallen in a donor’s hands.

Kinsley left Coventry on a mission to be ordinary. But you know what they say about the best-laid plans.

When seventeen-year-old Eli arrives at Raeth, a remote mountain retreat for teens with mental health issues, her mind is made up—she is not interested in participating, and she doesn’t need to “heal.” Still reeling from a breakup that left both her heart and faith shattered, she is determined to fake being “fine” so that the program’s warden will clear her to return home. But the retreat itself has other ideas.

When she discovers her best friend Riven is experiencing the same strange feeling, they set out on a mission to uncover what's going on. Everyone in Vera's world has a special ability-a little bit of magic that helps them through the day. Perhaps someone's ability is interfering with their memory? Or is something altering their very reality?

Hopeless romantic Elena Mason doesn't often hate people, but she hates her ex-fiancé's insufferable best man, Lucas Albright III. She just knows Lucas is the one who talked her ex out of getting married—so Lucas is clearly the cause of all her problems. And now she's expected to work with him? Lucas Albright wants nothing more than to make partner at his advertising firm, and he knows he works best alone. But then Elena ends up as his partner on an account that could win him a promotion. He's willing to try working as a team. Unfortunately, his new "partner" wants him dead.

There are three rules to fighting a rebel. Rule one: Play their games. They might be rebels, but they prefer compliance. Hypocritical jerks. Rule two: Teach them they’re not in charge. If they disagree, devour them. No one can resist a dhampir’s bite. Rule three: Forget all the rules. Because anything goes. With the fate of the Royale future on the line, I must do what I know how to do best and rebel against those who think they can control me. The Baron Coven believes I’m theirs, but they’ll figure out soon enough that I’ll never give up Bronx, Jameson, Mikkalo, and Everett.

The last thing I expected was to find myself training to defeat my past enemies. After the revelation of the head of the Royale Region’s demise, Bronx, Everett, Mikkalo, and Jameson must figure out how to save our home. While my four perfect vampires stress and prepare for a possible region takeover, I prepare for a future where I’m no longer the most important. And it scares me to death. I wouldn’t change it, though. Because my guys have never been happier. Too bad the only way I see the five of us getting through this is to start a war against my family.

A war brews on the edge of our region with the rise of enemies from my past. Why a coven of unregistered vampires thinks they can claim me? I’m sure to find out. Maintaining order among the Royale Region as our enemies take out our allies proves more difficult than we imagined. But there is no way I’m handing myself over to some guys who think I’m the key to changing an entire territory. Unfortunately for me, the enemies of my past are far worse than disgruntled Blood Rebels. Their presence threatens to expose that the former head of the Royale Coven is dead.

My three perfect vampire matches. A trip to the mountains for an awkward holiday. Uninvited party guests with an insatiable hunger only I can quench? The celebration of Winter Nights is about to suck. And not in a good way. If I’m going to survive a disaster and save Kingston, Diego, and Austin from pouting during their favorite time of year, I’ll have to summon a back-world Christmas miracle. Because if I don’t succeed, I’ll disappoint the guys who promised me forever. I’ll ruin the holidays for everyone. So, a miracle it is. If only it wasn’t so bloody.

Kingston, Austin, and Diego finally have the chance to create the life we want with the help of Orlando, who isn’t so bad now that I’m away from the Divine name. I finally feel like forever is possible...if only the universe would realize it has messed up our lives enough. As tension grows throughout the regions and alliances shift, danger looms outside the safety of my new home with my guys. We should’ve known that the perfect start of our forever couldn’t last.

Who knew our enemies could be good? Not me. Unfortunately, it’s because our allies suck. The Universe works in mysterious ways. Or maybe it was never the Universe. Maybe it was a vampire. Yeah, it was definitely a vampire - Orlando. He’s dangerous. Conniving. Manipulative. Annoyingly hot. And now I owe him. Great. But I’ll do anything for Kingston, Diego, and Austin. The truth of my existence leaves us scrambling to make sense of our lives. Because who I am jeopardizes everything we know. Turns out, vampires aren’t the only predators. Now, there’s me.

Dear listener, I hope you find this note before it gets lost in the waves. Before I get to send another letter and tell you about what happened to me. It all started when my family and I came to the quiet town of Argos, Washington, to start a new life. Again. However, the more I learned about this run-down seaside town, the more mysterious it became. Sea monsters in the bay, weird and extremely secretive townsfolk, and too handsome men.

Humans are dangerous. That's the lesson faeries are taught as soon as their flower petals unfurl. It's the first thing Aerewyn remembers the priestesses telling her as a young girl. Why then, when she stumbles upon a human boy in the woods, does she find him so intriguing? His blue eyes don't shine with malice. His smile doesn't menace. And when she later discovers he's been knocked unconscious in a storm, injured and alone in the forest, the only thing he seems in danger of is dying. So she saves his life - a single act that will change the fate of both their worlds.

Alanna thought rock climbing in Yosemite National Park would be the trip of a lifetime. But an earthquake strikes, and she finds herself plummeting to her death. But instead of slamming into the forest floor, Alanna drops into a secret underground cave. There, she's confronted by the impossible - magic.

Hundreds of years ago, humans learned the secret to sealing magic beneath their skin and stole it from the world. Faeries reverted to flowers. Shifters remained trapped in their animal forms. Mermaids turned to foam. And the magical creatures who survived vowed revenge. Nymia is one of those survivors - a faerie brought back to life by the return of her magic. When she finds a human girl named Ella with her sister's power trapped beneath her skin, she'll do anything to get her back, including kill her.
