What do you do when the dead won't leave you alone - and neither will the king who consumes souls? Clara Peri has never known a quiet life. Since childhood, the dead have found her - whispering, pleading, showing her the things no living person bothered to witness. She has learned to carry their secrets carefully. She has learned to ask for nothing. She has learned, above all else, to make herself invisible. When the hundred-year peace treaty between the human kingdom and the demon world comes due, Clara is stripped of everything she has ever known and sent across a dark sea as a sacrifice to Azkiel - the Demon King who survives by consuming the souls of the living. He expects a sacrifice. Clara strikes a bargain: she will use her ability to speak with the dead and help Azkiel uncover the truth behind his mother's mysterious death. In return, he will stop killing the innocent. It should be simple. But it's not. Because the deeper they dig into the darkness of his mother's past, the more dangerous the truth becomes - and somewhere between the dead and the demon, the lines Clara drew to keep herself safe begin to blur. Now she must survive a demon world, a king who obsessively unsettles her more than any ghost ever has, and a secret that was buried for a reason. Some debts are paid in blood. Some are paid in something far more costly.

STARVED Nicholas Black has spent eight hundred years hating witches. To him, they are selfish creatures built from destruction and chaos, leaving death behind everywhere they go. After losing the only person he ever cared for centuries ago, the ancient vampire chose isolation over attachment, convinced nothing in this world could ever touch what remained of him again. Until fate binds him to one. Astoria Zephara has spent her entire life running. As the last surviving descendant of one of the oldest witch bloodlines, survival has always mattered more than comfort. With covens hunting her for the power sleeping inside her blood and the terrifying possibility of losing herself if her Anam ever rejects her, Astoria never wanted the bond in the first place. Especially not with a vampire who looks at her like she is something to destroy. Now forced together by a connection neither of them can break, Nicholas and Astoria find themselves trapped between hatred, obsession, and a bond growing far more dangerous than either of them expected. Because the closer they become, the harder it is to tell where the need to survive ends... and where hunger begins.

Jade Legend knows three things: hunger makes people desperate, laws are written for everyone except girls like her, and no one with sense enters Thorn-Wake. When a forbidden hunt draws the attention of the king's men, Jade is driven toward the forest every villager fears - a place of old stories, missing roads, and a white stag that should not exist. But Thorn-Wake is not only a forest. It is a broken doorway into the fae realms, and something ancient has noticed her blood. Dragged from the mortal world into a realm of dangerous courts, old bargains, and beautiful monsters, Jade must survive long enough to find a way home. Before the fae decide whether she is a girl worth saving... or a weapon worth claiming.
