Death. It's something that Ada Palomino has always known so well, having grown up in a house of horrors, surrounded by a family plagued by ghosts and demons and things that go bump in the night. But after the sudden and tragic death of her mother two years ago, death has never felt so personal. Or so close. Now 18, Ada is trying to move on with her life, and the last month of summer holds nothing but sunshine and promises, with her first year at a Portland design school just around the bend.

One letter. That was all it took to change the course of my life forever. Typing too quickly in the application program cost me my dreams of finally being accepted for who I am, and now I'm stuck here. Discordia University's acceptance made everything I knew go up in a puff of sulfur. Demons are real, and they just admitted me into their elite boys' school. Unfortunately, my name is Kat, not Kit, and I'm a girl.

Gefangen zwischen einer Rebellion und der Herrschaft eines Tyrannen. Nyra ist auf der Flucht vor dem grausamen König von Marmoris – ihrem Vater! Dass sie dabei in ständiger Gefahr schwebt, nimmt sie in Kauf. Allerdings darf niemand erfahren, wer sie in Wahrheit ist. Vor allem nicht die Rebellen, die sie unterwegs aufgreifen und zwingen, sich ihrer Sache anzuschließen. Doch je besser sie die Gruppe und ihre Ziele versteht, desto größer wird Nyras innere Zerrissenheit: Darf sie Loyalität für ihr Königreich empfinden, wenn klar ist, dass die tyrannische Herrschaft ihres Vaters ein Ende haben muss?

All should be well in in the realms of the fae, but instead, bloodshed has already begun. Deimos, high king of the Afterworld, has stepped out of his realm for the first time to offer Delphine a deal that will seal the future of faerie forever: betray her own kind and end the bloodshed...or watch faerie drown in war.

I thought I'd found the perfect place at MistHallow Academy and after a rocky start, I hoped things would settle. But the ancient forest surrounding our sanctuary awakens, pulsing with magic that calls to me, and only me, it seems. I think I'm the key to unlocking this primordial power—a power that could save or destroy the supernatural world. Each of my guys embodies a different aspect of this magic, and I'm caught in the middle. I'm grappling with a force beyond my understanding, and it gets worse: my sire, the vampire I've been running from, has resurfaced.

Verena was the lost princess of Marmoris, the very thing we had spent our entire lives looking for, and I had let her go. The lingering taste of her mixed with the deep ache in my chest over her betrayal haunted my days and nights. I knew she was hiding something, but her secrets were far more treacherous than I could have imagined. Though I wished my own betrayal hadn't been so bitter on my tongue. Now, my dreams are haunted by the way her deep blue eyes looked up at me in shock when I revealed I knew her truth.

Alexander Lawrence is bored. At twenty-seven, his life is an endless loop of painting and teaching—and lots of mind-numbing sex to distract himself from the fact he's trapped in a gilded cage of his mother's making. That is until his best friend goes back to the Fae realm, leaving a seven-foot hunk of grumping gorgeousness to act as Alex's bodyguard, and he suddenly finds himself totally uninterested in anyone else. It's challenging pursuing a guy who seems to hate his guts, knowing it might well end in disaster, but Alex never could resist the thrill of the chase.

Avarath was lucky that the final king of faerie turned a blind eye to the first war, but Avarath's luck has run out. One by one, the princes of Avarath fall to the glamour, to duty, to fate-until even a king crumbles, too. By the time that war is truly upon them, Delphine has finally come to understand what it is to now be fae, too. If only she'd been cursed, instead. That would have been simpler. Then, at least, the whole of fate wouldn't rest on her shoulders, and hers alone.

She's been torn from her home, forced to face the curse that plagued her since birth, and nearly murdered more times now than she can count—and yet that never broke her. But this, this most recent betrayal, just might. And that will be their downfall. With little magic to aid her, Delph must find her way back to the human realm to reach her brother before the fae prince Nyx. She made the foolish mistake of trusting him, even for a moment, only for him to prove himself to be the beast she once believed all fae to be.

There's a reason the Starlight Fae are known as the greatest tricksters of all. Unfortunately for Delphine, she's just begun to learn that. She was warned they were not to be trusted—even when those same fae claim to share the blood running through her own veins. True to his word, Seren did not let Delphine die in Avarath, but he didn't take her home, either. No, the king of the Starlight Court took her even further away. He took her to another faerie realm. But in some ways, the ways that matter the most, the two realms remain the same.

Verena, alias Nyra, ist die verlorene Prinzessin von Marmoris. Damit ist sie genau der Schlüssel zum Sieg, den Dacre und seine Verbündeten die ganze Zeit gesucht haben. Aber sie hat ihre Identität bis zuletzt vor allen verborgen und ist untergetaucht, seitdem sie weiß, dass sie entlarvt wurde. Nun sind alle Rebellen auf der Suche nach ihr, nicht nur Dacre. An der Spitze der Jagd jedoch steht sein Vater, der Verena um jeden Preis finden will.
