His scandalous daughter, who ran away from home years ago to study illusion? Hetta knows it won’t be her, and she’s glad of it. Returning home for her father’s funeral, all Hetta has to do is survive the family drama and avoid entanglements with irritatingly attractive local men until the Choosing.

The Spring crown was mine—until Freya Heart ripped it away. Now, the only way back to the Fae continent that exiled me is through her son, the prince with the charming grin and the audacity to offer me his hand in marriage. He wants a seat at the Faerie war table. I want his head on a stick. I don't trust him. I don't like him. But we're sharing secrets. Sharing a bed. And he looks at me like I'm more than just a means to an end. I came back to reclaim my throne—not to fall for the son of my enemy. And if I have to betray him to win? So be it.

Orphia dreams of something more than the warrior crafts she's been forced to learn.

He wants to conquer every kingdom and carve his vengeance into anyone who stands in his way. I never chose this war, but to survive it, I'll have to become someone else entirely. All I know for certain is that Vad and I will set the stars on fire before we ever bow… even if it costs us everything.

Once upon a time, I was a typical foster kid—overlooked, bounced around, and just waiting until I was old enough to get out. Some girls in my situation might dream of being a secret fairy princess, but not me. I simply wanted a chance. It came by accident when a bird flew into my latest home. No big deal, right? Except that was all it took to get noticed. Now I'm heading to Silver Oaks Institute, an elite private college with very specific acceptance criteria. My caseworker got me an interview on a technicality, and when they say elite, they mean it.

The ferocious Styx Syndicate enforcer and trainer known as the Wolf has always been the hunter, never the hunted. So when Lyssa sees the gorgeous Scarlett getting harassed by thugs in a dive bar she's visiting for intel, she jumps straight into protective mode. But Lyssa soon discovers that not every damsel needs saving. And sometimes, wolves wear sheep's clothing… Lyssa thought she'd buried her past, but now it's rushing back with a vengeance—literally. Scarlett has a score to settle, and she's not going to back off.

Arriving at the Seelie Court to heal the sick prince who saved my life when I was five was supposed to be the end of my nightmarish (for the most part) trip through the fae realm. I should have been on my way home already, far away from fae and their politics. Instead, I'm running through unfamiliar woods with a furry friend at my heels, and magic that's changing me from the inside out—and not in a cute "glow-up" kind of way.

Traumatized college student Morgan Mallory has survived the treacherous land of Pandaemonium by evolving into a soul-devouring entity. Now a merciless warrior, she goes by Alice.

In his kingdom of shadowed beauty, she must decide if she is captive... or queen.

I thought surviving the ruthless fae bridal competition would be my hardest challenge. I was wrong. Chosen by Vad—the dark, dangerously possessive Prince of Shadows—to stand at his side, I've become the prime target in a kingdom built on lies and blood. Rivals would rather see me buried than crowned.

Death awaits those who get caught in the Wild Hunt, and only a magical veil protects the people of Penumbra from the monsters coming for them. So when a beast threatens to destroy the veil, Mia Clementine must break her vows of sorcery and use her magic to fight him, or risk losing everyone she loves.

Sataou, still reeling from his losses and devastated by his future, continues on. He is determined to bring the Shengu Sect to its knees and rid the area of their influence once and for all—for his loved ones and those being oppressed by their machinations. The power within him grows in strength, however, and he finds himself needing to decide whether to stay true to who he is or to simply allow himself to change, becoming what the Void wishes for him to be. The world around him loses some color, but his abilities increase—and he will need every bit of help he can get in the fights to come.

Chaos. Magic. Love. Three elements to my life that have brought me to this point—traveling to the God realm. I know we can handle whatever the fates decide to toss our way. Yet between visiting Queen Titania's court and learning far more about my demi-gods' past than I could have expected... I just hope we can retain some semblance of sanity by the end of this. And what happens when I finally meet the man, the myth, the... well, god, obviously—Set. My father. What has Isis been hiding from me? Secrets are unraveling nearly as fast as things are heating up between my men and me.

When Luna bargained with an arrogant fae journalist to save her inn, the last thing she expected was to fall for him. Half-fae Luna Pierce is getting what she's always wanted: to run the Cliff House Inn.

She has until Long Night, when fae from across the continent travel to the city of Sandrin, to change his mind.

For centuries, the Lord of the Dead has searched for her—his queen, his soul's twin, scattered across mortal lives and fading memories.

Drawn together by fate, Irina and Graven—Aïdes, unseen ruler of the Underworld—find each other once more. But to reclaim her full self, Irina must walk through every life she's lived, every truth she was denied, and confront the oldest lie of all: that she was ever a girl stolen.

Jessamine Glenmyr is on the run. She thought she'd fled far enough, living a life of obscurity in the Borderlands among rogues and outcasts. She was wrong. When her enemy finds her, she flees deeper into dark fae territory, risking death in the frozen woodlands. Lord Redvyr is annoyed when his wolf drags an unconscious and wounded light fae into his hunting camp. Their kind can never be trusted, and yet, as lord of his people, he is compelled to help her. The last thing Redvyr wants is a beautiful and beguiling fae wreaking havoc in his clan.

Nobody ever believed me. Not when I was five and told them about the boy with pointy ears who saved my life in the forest. Not during thirteen miserable years of bullying and being labeled the town weirdo. Until a guy with golden eyes and a royal guard escort shows up at my door to drop a bombshell. That little boy? Yeah, he's real. And he's a fae Prince. And he magically linked my life to his when he saved me. I know what you're thinking. Lucky girl, right? Wrong. Because now the Prince is sick and apparently, I'm the only one who can save him. How can I possibly say no?

Briannis Iavi, a well-bred lady and accidental assassin, is so close to securing the life of her dreams. All she needs to do is complete one last job: make her way into fae territory, sneak into the enchanted halls of Rosethorn Keep, and kill the king of Faerie. Her plan goes disastrously wrong, and Briannis finds herself a captive at her target's mercy instead. Cursed to a life of loneliness and slow decay, the monstrous fae king seems hell-bent on revenge—and if he can't hurt the human rulers who sent her, he'll amuse himself with her instead.

I'm the Princess of Solaria, a realm full of beasts that could make the Devil cower. That title means nothing because I'll be dead by the week's end.

Desperate, I entered the gauntlet and fought for my own hand. But the mad king is a twisted monster who loves to play tricks, and now, instead of wearing a crown, I'm a prisoner, set to be executed for defying the king's tradition.
