[Soon by WATTPAD BOOKS] In the prestigious race of stars, Sozo must hide the truth of who she is or pay with her life, but her blossoming relationship with the most talented competitor threatens everything she's worked for. ***** Every ten years, the lucky chosen bond with stars and race to win a wish. Any wish. Sozo is one of the lucky chosen, but she has a secret: as an Omen -- cursed beings that can transform into monsters -- she's forbidden from competing. Discovery would mean her death. Can she hope to keep her identity a secret, let alone win the race, especially as the talented and sunny Naqi enters the picture? When Sozo is given an ultimatum, she has to choose: betray her Omen people, or betray the people who are slowly, surely, becoming like a family to her. --- WATTYS AWARD 2020 "Bar none, this was [Senior Editorial Specialist] Amanda's absolute favourite read from the Wattys this year. It makes you cry, just from pure, uncontainable joy, and the ending kept us reading until nearly 6am. Everything about this story is beautiful. We were astounded that anyone could create something so magnificent and moving and magical. This level of storytelling mastery will never not blow us away." [Word Count: 70,500]

Avaryn Alastors life couldn't possibly get any worse. That's what she told herself the second her feet crossed the threshold of Crestwood Academy. But boy, was she wrong. She'd never wanted to attend the most prestigious stuck-up school only made for the rich and the smart. She'd never even wanted to apply. But tragedy struck her family and it had always been her moms dream. The first day she's there she makes a fool out of herself in front of the most popular group in all of Crestwood. And to make matters worse one of them is her roommate! They call themselves the Devara. (Stupid, she knows). And yet she can't help but feel drawn to them. Drawn to everything about them. So Avaryn does what she does best, she investigates. Only what she finds is a whole other dangerous world. A world of secrets and pain and even magic. The Devara is supernatural. They come from a whole other world. Not only that but they are heirs to this world. They are royalty. And with royalty comes enemies ... And now these enemies want Avaryn. And the only way she'll survive is sticking with the Devara. That is ... If she doesn't kill them first. Mystery, romance, death, lies. A plot twist you won't see coming. Shadows of Ash and Gold.

I always knew I didn't belong. Getting a scholarship to Evergreen University was supposed to be my fresh start - a chance to keep my head down, focus on premed, and outrun the shadows of my past. But from the moment I step on campus, everything changes. It starts with Aiden Thorne - the university god with golden retriever charm and a smile that makes my heart race. Then there's Kieran Wolfe - sharp-tongued and dangerous, yet somehow soft when his eyes land on me. Kai Mercer is my silent protector, fierce and watchful, like he's ready to tear the world apart to keep me safe. And Damon Blackwell... cold, ruthless, and unreadable, but when no one's looking, his actions speak louder than any words. They shouldn't notice me. But they do. When they touch me, sparks ignite beneath my skin, a heat I can't explain. And as much as I try to keep my distance, they pull me closer - unraveling secrets I never asked to know and feelings I'm not ready to face. But there's something about them. Something different. They're not just rich. Not just powerful. Falling for them could be the most dangerous thing I've ever done. But some fires aren't meant to be extinguished. Some are meant to burn. No MM interactions.
