As a young mother with a toddler and a live-in boyfriend, Maggie Fisher's job at a checkout counter in downtown Phoenix doesn't afford her much financial flexibility. She dreams of going to college and becoming a teacher, options she squandered when she fled her family home as a teenager. When Maggie stumbles onto an ad offering thousands of dollars to women who are willing to gestate other people's babies, she at first finds the concept laughable. Before long, however, she's been seduced by all the ways the extra money could improve her life.

Cheyenne Summerlin is a Goth Drow with a lot of secrets. She just doesn't know it yet. And they're all starting to spill out. First, there are more halflings just like her. More magicals equals more problems. Then there's her father. L'zar Vendys is a complicated Drow who makes enemies way too easily. And then there's the truth her mother has been hiding from her. That little bomb may be the worst of all. Will Cheyenne be able to handle everything she learns? Will she be able to gain more control over her powers?

I was hoping for a few days off from dealing with murder charges, bad guys, and the everyday paranormal bizarre. All I wanted was a nice break from all the crazy. And did I get it? No. Of course not. Instead, a new coven comes to town. A coven of witch females who call themselves The Sisters of the Circle, a small, elite group for the upper crust of witch society—according to Dolores. But there's something off about this coven, and I just can't put my finger on it. All the while, my aunts and other witches in town worship the ground they walk on like fangirls. Forget my time off.

All Ruby Behl wants for her seventeenth birthday is a good career path match, and to kiss her best friend and long time crush, Wesley Fairchild. Unfortunately, the simplicity of teenage wishes evaporated a decade ago when the Tercera virus nearly wiped out the human race. Transmitted through touch, the slightest contact is prohibited in Port Gibson. An innocent game of Spin the Bottle provides the opportunity Ruby's been waiting for, but when Wesley winds up Marked, Ruby realizes her first kiss may also be her last.

Letting go is not a process that comes naturally to us. In a world that teaches us to cling to what we love at all costs, there is an undeniable art to moving on - and it's one that we are constantly relearning. In this series of honest and poignant essays, Heidi Priebe explores the harsh reality of what it means to let go of the people and situations we love most - often before we are ready to - and how to embrace what comes next. 

Cheyenne Summerlin sought answers about her condition from the Banebreaker, but the answers she got weren't what she was wanted. What is a Drow to do when things aren't going her way? Fight harder. Cheyenne and Bianca are running out of options. It's time go across the portal to Ambar'ogúl or die trying.

What does a Drow do when the Crown doesn't want her to complete the trials? If you're Cheyenne Summerlin, you work with your allies and try even harder to complete them. Just for fun. That's how a Goth Drow does it, anyway. Finishing the trials may be key to stopping a hidden war that's bubbling to the surface. Being a Drow halfling just got a lot more complicated. Random portals are popping up, and they may put Cheyenne and her family and friends in danger. Then there are the innocents...can Cheyenne put a stop to this madness before things go horribly sideways?

More magic, more mayhem. Things are going BOOM in unexpected way for Cheyenne, including her car. Cheyenne's life is changing, but is it for the better? She's learning how to control her magic, but still has a long way to go before she can complete her trials. Will she have enough time to master her powers and learn new spells before she takes on the trials? And what is big, bad daddy L'zar keeping from her? She's going to find out one way or another. She has work to do, and nothing gets in the way of a Goth Drow.

The Crown has been forcing people to move into the city. Easier to control. They've even been ruining the Outers to make life outside the city difficult at best, impossible at worst. Cheyenne needs to do something about it - fast.

The secret contained the heart of Ambar'ogúl and a coin placed on the Crown's altar. But not without her father's help. Will L'zar Verdys risk everything for the daughter he just met and the throne he never wanted? Cheyenne will have to take a trip to the other side to see the destruction in L'zar's world and learn more about him and the rebellion. L'zar's rebels are ready to fight to stop the coming war and the creeping blight, and they need Cheyenne to join them. Will her halfling blood be the edge they need?

The clock is ticking. Cheyenne Summerlin has two weeks to find someone else to take her place on the throne. Better search fast because the Crown isn't keen on waiting. And the Crown isn't the only one Cheyenne is having problems with. Tensions are rising between Nightstalkers and the Raug as they journey in search of a hidden prince.

Cheyenne is at the crossroads. Who will sit on the Drow throne? The blight is still ravaging Ambar'ogúl and spilling through the Border portals into Earth. It's hard enough to discover the secrets in her father's world that will force the Crown to step down. Now Cheyenne has to battle the darkness on both sides of the Border and keep her old life running like normal.

Her Drow aunt is off the throne and all of Ambar'ogúl is looking to Cheyenne to guide them. Can the Goth Drow find a replacement for the throne? Better be fast. There's a long list of dangerous to-do's and not a lot of time. 

A puzzle box continues to stump Cheyenne. Time to look elsewhere, but will the Goth Drow find the answers she needs without it? Classes continue, and the FRoE is finally taking the hint that her work has to be extracurricular activities. She has just as much to learn from them as she does from college. Their lessons are just a lot more dangerous and deadly. Who can Cheyenne trust while she learns to control her growing powers? Then there's her father. Can she give him another chance?

The end to the fight is nigh. Cheyenne has accepted who she is and she's done playing nice Drow. Time to find Corian and stop the spell L'zar is casting before he creates portals between two worlds that could be wide open forever. Can you believe he's really doing this? Or is he being controlled by someone with darker intentions?

My name is Cheyenne Summerlin - remember that name. Somebody should. The world can't know I'm a Drow halfling. Not yet. I barely have these powers under my control, but time's up. I'm about to take magic for a test drive. Want to come along? The black ops government group believes it can run my life...but I have plans of my own. Watch out, magical evildoers - I'm about to crash your party. But will my training be enough?

Cheyenne is leading the Drows at last. But there's still a lot that could go wrong. Bianca is still cursed and could bring the blight down on them. The Nimlothar forest could burn and all the Drow with it. But wait, there's more....  

Cheyenne's come face-to-face with her jailbird Drow dad. She has to come to terms with the whole picture of her family. Mom was a political operative, and Dad likes to plot anarchy. Can L'zar Verdys help her reach her true potential from inside a Chateau D'rahl cell? Cheyenne's Goth grad student world and her magical role as a Drow halfling is blurring. Family history can be the hardest kind to bear. The rebellion she's battling was started by L'zar and has become an endless O'gúl war that has fallen to her to end. Can you walk away from family? Not if you're Cheyenne Summerlin.
