Xiandra Moyer never expected that her temporary teaching job in Citta Miasto would lead her to a terrifying discovery. She only wanted to teach-to change lives-but one fateful night changed hers forever. A forbidden gate hidden in the shadows... The Gate of Darkness. Beyond it lies secrets long buried, whispers of the past, and a truth she may not be ready to face. Will she uncover the answers she seeks? Will she find a love that defies time?

Odessa Solavita dreams of eclipses she's never seen and a love that feels more like a curse. Beneath her mortal skin lies the soul of Selira, one of the Five Veiled Moons-a coven of celestial witches born under darkness and flame. Once, they wielded beauty and ruin in equal measure until Selira was stolen by a demon who swore he'd love her beyond death. That love shattered the coven. It damned them all. Centuries later, Odessa crosses paths with Kane Hendrix, the haunting lead singer of Crimson Hymns-a man whose voice drips with sin and sorrow, whose touch burns with something ancient and wrong. He is the very demon who broke the world for her once before. As Odessa's dormant magic begins to awaken, so do the memories she was never meant to recall. Love becomes a haunting melody, pulling her toward the truth-and toward the monster who would burn eternity just to have her again. But awakening her magic comes at a cost. The forces that once tore them apart are stirring, and the other Veiled Moons are not as lost as history would have her believe. The line between salvation and damnation blurs, until only one question remains: Is love still love when it was forged in ruin? In a world where magic is memory and music is a curse, "Crimson Hymns" is a darkly sensual tale of reincarnation, forbidden devotion, and the relentless gravity of souls that were never meant to part.

A hundred years ago the world Omora was filled with magic. It flowed through the rivers, blew with the wind; magic sparked with every flame ignited. Life existed with and because of magic. The people, witches and humans alike depended on magic. But now, magic is dying. Andy and Anna Echowood had pretty ordinary lives. Highschool, part time jobs, parties, friends, video games and homework. Nothing out of the norm, they were just teenagers. Then their aunt was kidnapped. Now they have new things to deal with. Magical amulets, handsome princes, fancy balls, fantastical worlds and new found powers. It all seems great! Well, except for the betrayal, the lies, the secrets, the people hunting them down and the fact that their aunt is still missing. Together they have to become stronger if they're to stand up against the forces rising up against them. Not everyone is who they appear to be in this contemporary fantasy novel. Will the twins find their aunt? Will they ever return home?

They may not save the world but they will give it a choice. Resurrection or ruin? What will humanity choose?

Jeanette Valemere grew up believing in a world no one else could see- a kingdom of dragons, elves, satyrs, and cyclops, where her grandfather once flew with the King of Dragons himself.

Years later, on a class trip to Japan, a stranger with golden-flecked eyes finds her. He claims to know her name, her past, and the mark hidden on the bottom of her foot. He says their world-her world-is dying without her. Jeanette laughs it off. Until the dreams return. Until the book finds her again. Until she stands once more in Mythraenys, where dragons take human form and every bond has a price. Torn between the life she's built and the truth she abandoned, Jeanette must reclaim what was lost, face a friend turned traitor, and decide whether to fight for a world she was born to save. Because in the end, only one song can awaken the last dragon... and it may already be too late.
