In an effort to live a bolder and braver life, Everly Rowan begins following the "10 Easy Steps of the Morris Method of Creative Risk-taking". Over the next few weeks she visits a karaoke bar, a punk hairstylist, a bible-thumping church, and a skydiving drop zone. She breaks off her engagement to her fiance, clobbers a policeman with her shoe, and stands up to her sister in a showdown over fried squid. Just as she is beginning to question the wisdom of her actions, the author of the self-help book, Dr. Lana Morris, comes to town for a 'Dare to be Great' weekend retreat. The events that unfold there give Everly a new understanding of the nature of courage... and love.

This is the finale of The New Salvatores trilogy! Stella Salvatore is the eldest child of Damon and Elena Salvatore. She's your average teen - the top of the senior class - head of the dance committee - cheer captain - the most popular girl in Mystic Falls High. Everything that her Aunt Caroline was. Except for Stella carries a secret. A secret that, if known by the wrong people..could kill her and her entire family. She's a vampire. Everything in the little town of Mystic Falls seems like it might actually be normal for once. No strange deaths, no vampire attacks, even the Originals - except for Rebekah - have left town. But what happens when a new student arrives in town? One who seems to be hiding something? What happens when a secret - a secret not even Damon knows - about Damon's past is revealed? What happens when a stranger shows up with a tattoo only Jeremy and Stella's little brother Damian can see? Things turn weird and rumors of a greater evil arise. This evil will be the most dangerous thing that they have ever faced and in the end...some will survive while others...may fall.

It's been 4 years since Stefan Salvatore gave over his allegiance and humanity to Klaus, the hot tempered hybrid Original, and fell in love with Rebekah, Klaus's younger sister. In his baby brother's absence, Damon Salvatore has kept Elena Gilbert, the girl that they both love, safe and happy. What will happen when Damon finally wins Elena over? What will happen when he finds a way to be temporarily human again? What will happen when Damon and Elena find out news that shouldn't be possible, but is? Will the Salvatore brothers be able to stop quarreling with each other to fight for the one thing that they can't bare the thought of losing? Dive into the dangerous world of Mystic Falls and find out! The Salvatore boarding house may soon be filled with the pitter patter of tiny feet!
