I had everything I ever wanted, until my life was flipped upside down. Now, I’m suddenly being forced to live in my parent’s hometown, with complete strangers. Like my heart isn’t broken enough. Could I fall any further? Yes. Yes, I could. Why might that be? The Allstars - Xavier Knight, Hunter Asheville, and Tobias Holmes - Asheville High’s prestigious star football players. They’re my worst nightmare. But damn...why do they have to be so mouth-wateringly hot?

Suddenly thrown into a world representing bloodlines I know nothing about, forcing a past I refuse to remember into the present, my world is turned upside down. It doesn’t matter that I didn’t want to go to college; it doesn’t matter that I don’t want to be here. I’ll follow the rules or risk my life. The organization that runs the criminal underworld is no joke.

I come to find that knowledge is both a blessing and a curse as I leave behind my sheltered imprisonment to embrace the hope for a future at Trinity Falls Academy. And yet with answers come more questions than I can possibly keep track of. For the first time in my life, I'm prioritizing myself, a luxury I've never been able to embrace until now. But that selfishness introduces a new problem I never saw coming… a battle between what my mind needs and what my heart desires.

Featherstone thought they broke me in The Pyramid, but it’ll take more than their half-assed attempts on my life to truly tear me down. As I uncover the secrets and lies that surround me, I'll learn who I can trust. So here I stand. With the loyalty and strength from the Aceholes, I’ll forge my own path. They’ll continue to claim me, crumbling my walls as they go, a clear f--k you to the consequences. Remembering there are good people in this messed up world is easy when Red is around. There are innocent people worth fighting for.

Everything seems to stand in the way of my Aceholes and me, but we stand together. Through thick and thin, till death do us part. My egg donor is dead, and The Games have finally arrived. Stepping into Beechwood Hall, the challenges surprise even me. Featherstone seems to want our blood, or is Totem behind even this? We must find our way, as we move into the darkness. Will we survive the carnage, or will we be consumed by the depths of hell they’re willing to put us through?

At ten years old, one drop changed my whole world, and not just because I lost my freedom, my parents, and my memories all in one night. My life is now bound to another: my blood kin, whose cursed fate is dependent upon my own. After being held captive for over a decade to protect someone I've never met, I'm now thrown into a new world. Trinity Falls Academy is an opportunity to secure my future. Like life's cruel guillotine, the curse shatters at twenty-one years old, and only one kin can make it to twenty-two. 

Shadowmoor has forged me into who I am today, and I have the mark and scars to prove it. I never thought I'd see the light again, but it seems destiny has other plans for me. My father's arrival means life as I know it is about to change. Silvercrest Academy trains and prepares the most gifted and privileged among us for their future contributions to the Monarchy. I may come from the right family, but I am a void.

Magic I never thought I'd possess, and yet now that I do. I'm starting to wonder if it's more potent than I ever could've imagined. I need to learn my limits and fast because there's darkness on the horizon. My days at Silvercrest Academy have been filled with secrets, conflict, and death. It's a world consumed with uncertainty, but there's only one thing I can believe in… the Bishops.

From Shadowmoor to the halls of Silvercrest Academy, I went from a non-existent player to a powerful piece on the board. My parents want to control me, the enemy wants to use me, and everyone else fears the power I hold. Everyone except the Bishops—Creed, Zane, Eldon, and Brax. I'm their Queen and every move we make is to protect each other at all costs. With new threats emerging from the shadows, I'm starting to wonder if my destiny was cursed before it even began. I've become a pawn, and only time will tell if I'm headed for victory or defeat.

Freedom was supposed to be mine. Instead, it made me a target. My poisoned escape didn't set me free; it dragged me straight back to the darkness. I've spent my whole life clawing at the chains meant to bind me, convinced freedom was the answer. I was wrong. Liberation comes at a cost, and...

Welcome to Emerson Grove. With our fantastic university, suburban lifestyle, and the city nearby, you’re never going to want to leave. I almost believe their slogan, until my ride drives off, leaving me on the doorstep of a pretty house to reveal a blast from the past. Leaving one lion’s den, I’ve fallen straight into another. I didn’t agree to this part. I didn't agree to…them.

I’ve walked the streets of Phoenix Valley for twenty two years knowing exactly who I am: an orphan, a human, a nobody. Summoned by The Hex to test my humanity, I was prepared to fail, destined to be the same mundane girl. I was wrong. Pandora’s Box called to me, sensing a magic I never knew existed. With my world turned upside down and full of possibilities, I must now call Paradise Heights home. To live amongst supernaturals, attend Saints Academy, and find my place.

They say bad things come in threes, and the De Luca brothers have trouble written all over them. Matteo, Vito, Enzo. Their ruthless reputation has followed them all the way from Italy to New York City, and they're here to collect what they were promised. I'm not supposed to care that they're enticing, my favorite kind of temptation. I'm here on a mission to wipe the slate of my sordid past clean. But one taste is all it takes to have me questioning my plan. I'm sinking faster than I can piece together a way out.

Trinity Falls is nothing like I expected it to be. I never could have imagined that I would be a witch and find my magic. I never expected to find friends who have become family. And I certainly never expected to fall in love with five men who have become the center of my world. And yet here I am, surrounded by so much more than I ever could have wished for… but standing between us and happiness is a curse that binds us all. There's so much more at play, but all the pieces to the puzzle have yet to be revealed, and we're out of time.

I have witnessed the darkest parts of this world and endured countless struggles in a life riddled with sin. I walk among the demons that haunt our town, all in the name of survival. Being an Ice Reaper was not a choice but the only way to outlast my fate. Until karma blew through the front door, and I was claimed by the enemy. As the remnants of my former life fade away, I'll do whatever it takes to keep my secret hidden, using the only thing I have at my disposal… my body.

I once had everything—until it all disappeared. Years later, I’m on the cusp of finally filling in the missing pieces, only for them to barge into my life at the worst possible moment. It only takes one glimpse to realize I’m not the only one who’s changed. Alexi, Talon, and Malik. Gone are the boys I once knew. Gone are my saviors from across the road. In their place are the furies that rule and set order, now nothing more than my captors.

When your soul is torn apart, and your heart feels empty, how do you breathe? When the flames of hell burn bright, and all hope seems lost, how do you survive? When war is coming for those you love, and darkness prepares to strike, how do you face the wrath? When truths are awoken, and the supernatural world is brought to its knees, how do you rise back up? The time for questions has passed. It is time to act. Time to fight. Time to conquer evil once and for all. May courage drive you. May you know no fear. May we all rest in peace wherever our pieces may fall.

They say the gods don’t give you more than you can handle, which is probably why I’m sinking in drama. As a god myself, I guess I’m not included in that little speech. But it’s about time they address me as who I am.

The prophecy declares the darkness that once brought the world to its knees will return. The timing is no coincidence and I can’t help but fear it all points back to me. With my heritage revealed, I finally know where I fit in. It’s not what I expected, but I can’t change it, just like I can’t change who I am drawn to. A shifter, a demon, a vampire, an angel.

This war has raged too long, but the next blood to be spilled will be at my hands. Leo, Ezra, Jameson, and Jagger have always been the most important things in my life, and now my heart is broken, my soul destroyed, and I’m taking no prisoners with my vengeance.
