Twenty-four-year-old musician Charlie Stone has always played the classics. It's just another day of playing the same old songs when he notices her-Anna Garrett, a beauty with cold-bitten, rosy cheeks and a coffee cup clutched in her hands. Five songs later, and she's still standing there. He vows to steal her heart the only way he knows how. In the heart of London, chance encounters are few and far between, but a warm melody can bring people together... New day, same old disappointments. Anna Garrett believes her luck at finding love has stalled before it's even started when she's stood up for a second date with a friend of her housemate. But when she sees a handsome musician playing his heart out, everything changes. Memories come flooding back. As she listens to the music, Anna realises she must take matters of love and luck into her own hands. When opposites attract, sparks fly...

But their newfound bond is rocked to its core by a New Year's Eve party gone awry that threatens to throw them off course. Finally, a bright future appears to be within their grasp.

"She will save them all, or she will let the darkness claim their souls," Long before the existence of the Shadow Soldiers, there was a man, whose only crime was his curiosity. He had no thirst for power, merely a need for new knowledge. But after the creation of the first abomination, his world was plunged into darkness and the First War began. The wars raged on for decades, and sons and daughters were raised to take their parents places on the battlefield. Until the first glimmer of hope was born. A girl who had spent her life abandoned and shunned, who was born with the ability to control the air with nothing but her fingers, was discovered in the ruins of Al Tamar. A girl who had the power to defeat the King of Shadows. "but she will be our salvation, and blaze a burning trail that they will follow, into death or to life."

People may think that seventeen year old Cameron Schmidt is living the good life because of the big house and all the money he's surrounded by every day. They may think he lives the good life because he attends White Ridge Academy, has two amazing best friends who know him better than everybody, and has the attention of one of the wealthiest girls at White Ridge. They may think he lives the good life because he has a trophy wife as his stepmother and a picture perfect father who runs his own company in New York City. But that's just what they think, it wasn't reality... Seventeen year old Cameron Schmidt, does have two great best friends, but just because they know him better than anybody else doesn't mean they know everything about him. He lives with his stepmother and father, but nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors. Nobody knows that he's just a boy silently crying out for somebody to come save him... But what happens when a new girl named Emmeline catches his attention? He didn't know what it was that drew him to her, but maybe it was her long light brown hair that he wanted to oh-so touch? Maybe it was her looks that drew him to her. The fact that she looked and acted like none of the girls who attended White Ridge was something that he liked most about her. But the number one thing that drew him to her was her eyes, her blue misty-like eyes, and the cane she carried around every day. She was blind, trapped in a dark world just like him... But maybe they could be each other's light...

When seventeen-year-old necromancer Sapphire Sweetman befriends the spirit of Mona Delaney, she thinks all of her problems have been solved. Mona proves to be very useful when it comes to propelling her up the social ladder at school and dishing out haunting - and sometimes frighteningly cruel - punishments to those that Saffy deems deserving, but soon she begins to realize that Mona isn't quite who she says she is. People across the county are vanishing without a trace, and when Mona demands a sinister favour in return for her loyalty, Saffy's world is upended completely. The options are clear: comply, or become subject to the rage of a spirit who is far more powerful than she first seemed. Highest chart positions: #12 in Paranormal

Now that she’s rotting in a prison cell, she’s not sure her dying mother made the right choice when she entrusted her with the secrets of rebellion.

Then she meets Thomas, a fellow inmate, who tells her stories of the mythical mountain colonies where people have names and the arts thrive. Together they plot an escape, knowing if they fail, they will die. Or worse, their consciousness will be taken by the MindWipe, leaving their bodies free for the government to use. When nothing goes as planned, Daughter4254 must choose between using her mother's secret to better the world she hates, or following Thomas to the quiet life of freedom she has always craved.

(The Triumvirate Histories Book One) What do you get when you add thirty eighteen-year-old high school seniors and a two week trip to Paris? One sometimes boring, other times not trip of a lifetime. And when you add your roommates sneaking out and your guy best friend sneaking in to your room? A night of movies and junk food until finally passing out at three in the morning. Now, for a more exciting question, what do you get when you add together a drink thrown in your face, getting lost in the museum you're in as you come back from cleaning yourself up, and walking in on heist in progress? That's right. The kidnapping of Emmy Alexander, who just happened to be me. But when you hear about all of these kidnappings on the news, you expect the worst. Not mine, though. Mine included a secret society that the public, after learning about it a few years before, thought was now a modern myth, searching the globe and stealing back the pieces of a puzzle that we didn't know what information it would hold, and running from another secret society that was bound and determine to stop us no matter what. Oh, and you can't forget John Raymond, who just happened to be the one who kidnapped me. It was technically his fault I was in the middle of this, thrust into a world of secrets. I couldn't complain, though. And no matter what, John couldn't say we didn't make a great heisting team. But when that other secret society came into our crazy, messed-up equation, it added even more danger. But then again, I wanted a little adventure in my life, and I sure as heck got it.
