In the aftermath of the mysterious death of their lead singer, the young members of a now-legendary British acid folk band hole up at Wylding Hall, an ancient English country house with its own dark secrets. There they record Wylding Hall, the album that makes their reputation but at a terrifying cost when Julian Blake, their new lead singer, disappears within the mansion and is never seen again.

People say I'm a weirdo. Sure, my idea of a party is a mini box of wine and hanging out with a feral raccoon, but it works for me. When I’m accused of murder, things get crazy. One, I learn that I have magic. Two, there’s a secret magical city hidden right in London itself. And three, my only hope is a vampire who’s sexy as sin and scary as the devil himself. He's called the Devil of Darkvale, and he all but owns Guild City. Some say I should just quit and turn myself in. Not a chance. I’m going to solve this murder myself.

Herzergreifende Romantik, ein Strudel aus Intrigen und magische Kämpfe an einer elitären Universität! Legenden besagen, eine verräterische junge Frau habe vor 200 Jahren die Unterwelt zerstört und alle Hexen gezwungen, nach England ins Exil zu gehen. Die Kalten, eine gewissenlose Rebellenorganisation, sind davon überzeugt, dass jene Frau wiedergeboren wurde und sich an der magischen Eliteuniversität Bronwick Hall aufhält. Der junge Professor Henry Saints und die Studentin Blaine schleusen sich bei den Rebellen ein, um mehr über deren Pläne herauszufinden.

Suliel is returning to the walled city. But while she has the ability to assess others' primary loyalties, she remains deeply uncertain as to whom she can trust. Indeed, she even doubts her own mother's intentions. Fortunately, as she surveys her surroundings and navigates court intrigue, she's guided by a voice in her head: that of Kelsey, a sentient dungeon with an ax to grind. Unable to stifle her snarky attitude, Kelsey's avatar offends the black-eyed god Riadi when she expresses her desire to free the mortal races—a mission she expects Suliel to play a significant role in.

Eine magische Hexenakademie im Kampf gegen unheilvolle Rebellen! Von geheimnisvollem Nebel verborgen, bildet die magische Universität Bronwick Hall junge Hexen aus. Dort gerät die 21-jährige Blaine in einen Strudel aus Lügen und Intrigen, nachdem sie zur obersten Elitestudentin aufsteigt. Ihr Verlobter Karan bietet ihr Schutz, seit ihr Vater wegen Hochverrats verhaftet wurde, doch sie liebt ihn eigentlich nicht.

Cass Clereaux is good at two things: finding treasure and killing demons. Lying low is a close third - but not because she wants to be good at hiding. Cass is a FireSoul, one of the unlucky few to inherit a piece of the dragon's soul. On the surface, the perks are sweet - she has the power to find and steal any type of magical treasure, including the powers of other supernaturals. But it doesn't come without a price - stealing powers requires that she kill, and others would destroy her if they discover what she is.

Über die Liebe gab es viel zu erzählen, aber eines blieb unerwähnt: dass sie nur in seltenen Fällen auf der gleichen Ebene stattfand, nie einfach und außerdem unberechenbar war. Flora flieht zu ihrer Grandma aufs Land. Sie möchte neu starten, nachdem einige Mitschüler sie gemobbt haben. Frieden findet sie in der Begegnung mit Schmetterlingen. Ihr größter Traum: eine eigene Aufzuchtfarm. In Mousehole begegnet sie Dean, einem Mädchenschwarm, dessen Charme sie in kürzester Zeit erliegt. Doch nicht nur Flora hat Geheimnisse, sondern auch ihr neuer Freund.

The two parts of being a paranormal private investigator I could really do without are being forced to eat bananas by an animated statue with a potassium fixation, and being put on trial for murder by a self-appointed council of vampire oligarchs. To be fair, I did kind of do it (the murder, not the bananas). But I was kind of saving my girlfriend, who is kind of one of them. On top of this, I've also wound up with a primordial queen of the damned trying to strangle me in my dreams.

A couple of years ago I screwed up so badly that everybody I remotely cared about wound up dead, nearly dead, or just plain betraying me. Some days, I'm sober enough to care. My list of "things I really don't need right now" starts with a condescending octogenarian werewolf having a go at me for banging a Marchioness. As for where it ends, try the disembodied spirit of my ex-girlfriend stalking me in my dreams, a vindictive wizard-vampire from the first century on a vengeance crusade, and, oh yes, having to find the actual Holy Grail.

Fate or destiny or a god with a really messed-up sense of humor has dropped a weapon that could rewrite the universe right into the middle of London, and anybody with half a sniff of arcane power has rocked up to stake their claim on it. Last time this happened, the city went to pieces. This time, it might just go to hell. Also, I'm still dating a vampire.

Name's Kane, Kate Kane. I'm a paranormal private investigator, which is like a normal private investigator except - and stop me if you're having trouble following this - more paranormal. This business comes with a few basic rules: don't start drinking before noon, don't get your partner killed, don't sleep with the woman who killed him. Last year I broke all of them.

Despite 10 years of secrecy, Lachlan has figured out that I’m his mate. And he’s not pleased that I’ve been hiding from him. Nor is he pleased that I escaped from his cell. It’s hardly my worst problem, though. There’s a killer after me. Multiple killers, if our source is to be believed. And they’re determined to find me. As much as I want to run a hundred miles from Lachlan to avoid the mate bond, it’s too dangerous. I need his help to find the people who are after me, and there’s no way he’d let me go, anyway.

Our fae courts are at war, yet somehow, we're mated. My fated mate is the Seelie Fae king. He’s powerful, dangerous, and sexy as hell. Except, I don’t want a fated mate. Especially since he hates me. Turns out I’m Unseelie, and our courts are at war. When my new Unseelie magic goes haywire and I nearly destroy my city, I can’t fix it alone. The only person with strong enough magic is the king. Which means I have to beg my mate for help. I’d rather chew off my own leg, but that won’t save magic’s bend.

Got a demon that needs killing? I’m your girl. On paper, I’m a blood sorceress. I can whip up the spells of your dreams. It’s a legal occupation - barely - but mostly a cover. My real job is protecting my city from the monsters of the dark realms. I’m the resident demon slayer, and occasionally those suckers escape. Then it’s up to me. I’ve even got a side hustle using their blood for my sorcery biz. It’s gruesome, but that’s life. Things get complicated when I start clashing with a sexy bounty hunter.

So here’s the deal—I’m a magical disaster. A witch from a family of witches, and the only one whose magic blows up in her face. Which is why I came up with my rules....

Loren Oldrych is just a goblin from Kilahead, living a simple life of hunting and avoiding beasts. While out on a hunting trip, he wakes up to find his world’s been turned upside down. A strange entity calling itself a Guardian tells Loren that his world’s been destroyed. What’s Loren to do now? As he goes on a journey to find out what happened to his friends and family, Loren battles monsters, squabbles with orcs, and near-death situations become part of his routine. But every defeated monster and each completed quest means Loren gets stronger, and his mana shoots up.

I can handle anyone who walks into my pub. Except him - the most powerful vampire who ever lived. The First. Dark, damaged, and hot as hell. He says I’m his one and only Vampire Bride, and that five years ago, I buried him alive. Obviously he’s crazy, because I don’t remember any of that. All I know is that if I want to escape his vengeance, I have to help him infiltrate a deadly secret society.

I've been betrayed. I spent years hiding my magic from the world, but now I've got new powers I can't control. Everyone around me is at risk, and if my secret is revealed, I'll be hunted. But I don't have time to worry about the monster I might become. Someone has stolen a dangerous artifact that could turn my world upside down. It could get me and my friends killed and bring destruction down on my city.

I’ve become what I feared most, and a demon is hunting me for my power. He’s opened a portal to the underworld, and I’m the last piece in his puzzle. If he captures me, he’ll use my magic to desolate the world. The only person who can help me is Damian Malek, a cursed angel. He’s sexy, powerful, and ruthless. The only problem is - our attraction is fatal. When the veil to the underworld breaks, we’ve got one shot to save our world. We’ll have to confront my past, find the secret of my magic, and broker a deal with the angels - a deal that could cost Damian everything.

I never thought in a million years that the bones would choose me. The power, the magic, was supposed to go to someone else in the family. I was counting on it. But now my Grammy Ruby is gone, and here the bones sit on my kitchen table. I thought bitter relatives would be my biggest problem. But I’ve barely had time to find a familiar before trouble comes a-knocking. The kind that possesses smoldering green eyes and a smile that can turn any woman dumb. His name is Rogan Kendrick, and he’s certain that someone is hunting down and taking my kind. According to him, I’m next.
