Nova knew that the galaxy wanted to be rid of Dominion, but she did not expect the immediate bravery that came after she and Valen declared war against Cyrillius. It’s a daily battle to protect Kaelea from his fleets, but leaders, soldiers, and publicists from planets near and far have come to aide in the fight. Best of all, Nova has reunited with her family. But this undertaking isn’t without its trials. Most of the galaxy still doesn’t trust Valen. With decades of rumors and witnessed actions, it will take an incredible act of risk to prove he’s changed.

Despite Archer King’s prophesy, I’m moving forward with my life. I’m not about to let the ravings of a murderous psychopath dictate my future. Things are almost perfect. Almost. But I’ve lied to Sebastian in the past, and now he’s having a hard time trusting me. He’s getting a little paranoid about who I’m with and where I’m going. Fires are bound to start when two broken people who are willing to go too far for each other, no matter the cost, fall in love.

It's been four months since Alex gave everything to save Jessica. Life should be perfect; she has Alex, she's been freed of the nightmares, and most of all - she's alive. But some things have changed, some things haven't. That's the problem. Alex still hasn't asked "the question". Jessica can't see the reason why, and it's tearing her apart. He's keeping something from her.

College is hard - classes, homework, bullies. But, being the daughter of renowned professors, I grew up at Alderidge University and was on track to have an easy start to my freshman year. Until I met Nathaniel Nightingale. Aloof and mysterious, Nathaniel’s hands were covered in scars that told me he had a violent history. He started asking questions about my own, and then dark secrets in our family lines collided after a strange discovery in the library. We found words with power, and they unleashed abilities in the both of us that had been lost to the world.

Elle has survived 23 years as a human surrounded by vampires, but her mortality has never been a disadvantage until now. Trapped in a basement, she's waited to make her escape and get home to Boston.

Nova and Valen barely escaped Isroth with their lives and now they’ve crash-landed on an empty planet - no people, no tools to fix their ship. Nova has spent her life building and creating mechanics...and she can’t figure out what’s wrong with it. But maybe the crash was a blessing in disguise. They’ve seen their entire lives together, but this is the first real time they’ve ever had with one another. This is their chance to see if their future is worth fighting for, and if there is anything between them besides attraction and fate.

Nathaniel and I thought we were alone in this, until the day our enemy walked through the door, showing us the impossible things he could do. Borden Stewart was the last person we ever thought we could trust - I certainly don’t, but Nathaniel has forgiven and forgotten. As a new semester at Alderidge University starts, the stakes are higher than ever. There are ramifications to Borden leaving the Society Boys. Now all of us - our work - are targets. And how am I ever supposed to focus on school, when the call to bring back magic grows more intense by the day?

It’s been rumored about in bedtime stories for decades. Nova has seen it in her visions. It’s too dangerous to get within a league of. But those aboard Deliverance have arrived at Glorra Quin Lune, the planet Cyrillius stole Nova from. Everything is uncertain. How will they land on a planet entirely engulfed in Neron? How could anyone survive that blast? What will they find if they make their way to the surface? And will it change everything Nova knows about herself?

Logan’s biological father has been building an army to rise against the Crown, to challenge Cyrus and Sevan for control over the vampires, and their voices will be heard. Every one of them is a rightful Royal. He is not the only one who is tired of hiding in the shadows. Other family members lost their lives trying to bring all vampires into the spotlight, to show the world what they are capable of. With this many descendants, with this much bad blood, this will be a war fought with enemies new and old.

With the pain of the past behind them, Jessica and Alex are ready to move on with their lives. But moving on is hard when it involves reconnecting with the family who wanted to send Jessica to an institution. And living life isn't easy when someone who doesn't belong is watching her, threatening her life, determined to take Jessica back to the afterlife she should have joined months ago.

Dominion’s strong hold, the planet Isroth, is crawling with soldiers, and worse -the Kinduri. Nova knew her mission was impossible, but hiding the truth of what she really is may be the most critical thing she’s ever done. Presented to Cyrillius as the fugitive he’s been chasing for lunars, the last thing Nova expected was to be complimented and revered by the man, praised for her work. The destroyer of planets has offered her a job, and it’s one Nova can’t refuse.

The Bahiri are real and Nova has found them hidden away on an invisible planet. With their help, she’s finally ready to accept what she is: a Nero. She has to train, to learn how to use her abilities, and she’s got years’ worth of catching up to do. Desperate, she’ll push herself - possibly beyond her limits. But learning how to use her abilities not only awakens her capability to control Neron, but her power to see the future. Going to sleep is a nightmare and heaven, all in the same breath.

It's easy to blend in and disappear on the streets of Boston. Elle Ward has finally taken control of her own destiny - away from the dark shadow of her family's reputation. Putting her botany and chemistry degree to work, she's the successful owner of her own apothecary. But she lives by a secret identity. Curing innocent Bitten in the basement, she flies under the radar, risking her life, and risking punishment from King Cyrus. But being raised in this world means she can never truly get away from the Houses and their politics.

The demented thing is that this evolved from the most sickly sweet, heart-wrenching love story you've ever heard. I went to Sully because I just couldn't get over Jack's murder. I couldn't deal.

A plan was laid out as the Evolution crushed mankind, a plan that was right under Eden's nose all along. And Eve is the key to everything. New Eden - mankind - they have a small chance at fixing their dismembered planet. But it will be a reckless sprint against time and the coming Bane to retrieve the final piece to the plot. New Eden's worst fears have become reality. The Bane are back in the city and they're smarter and more aggressive than ever.

The city of New Eden is cleared, but it won't stay that way forever. The Bane continue to advance in horrific ways that will wipe humanity from the face of the Earth. A storm is coming, one none of them could have dared imagine. When a group of outsiders come to the city, everyone is on edge. They have too many questions and not enough answers about where they are from or what they want. Just because they are human doesn't mean they can be trusted.

It was one of the scariest things I'd ever done: walking out on stage, opening my mouth, and singing for everyone at that wedding to hear. Because I'm awkward. I always mess things up, I forget my lyrics, and guaranteed, I'll do something weird. I'm a nerd, a lab assistant. Not a pop star. But that night, I met someone who changed my life forever. Kale McCain. World-famous model, ladies' man, not a flaw to him. And the most unexpected thing happened - sparks flew.

I discovered the truth of who Olin really is, and he tried to kill me for it. Me, Nathaniel, our students - we’re not murderers, but he’s putting every single one of us at risk, and a modern witch hunt is just around the corner with him on the loose. We must deal with him. My mother has returned. We have been wary of portal magic ever since her disappearance, but she’s brought with her a tale far more perilous and wilder than I ever could have imagined.

The last place any of us expected the newest mage to come from was the past and a book. But Olin’s arrival has brought answers. He knows why some mages can do magic and why some cannot. We all came to Europe to get answers about magic and our history, and that’s exactly what we’re getting, in the most unexpected ways. While we scour Germany, France, Scotland, and other countries for information and books, Nathaniel and I shakily try to repair what has broken between us. But I’ve noticed something new in Borden’s eyes when he looks at me.

I have a ward full of comatose vampires who are relying on me to find a way to wake them up. The entire supernatural population of Chicago is at risk. I do not have time to land in jail. This wicked heart of mine needs to stop making my life so complicated.
