Rogue Vampires are attacking innocent people, ignoring the treaties that have been in place for decades. Tensions are rising between Wooldridge and the neighboring Vampire Kingdom of Angara and Ozvra Levanadel is about to be dragged right in the middle of it. No one knows where she came from, but they all have learned to fear her. An assassin known as The Silver Raven, Ozvra has ruled Wooldridge's underground since she was 10 years old. Trained by her mentor, Exiled Prince Ilkas Shakh, the two have made Wooldridge their hunting grounds. For years, the kingdom thought her a shadow, not knowing her face. That is until Lord Vincent Claire of Fynehill summons her for a very important assignment: Kill the Rogues. Ozvra's secret life of darkness comes to an abrupt close when she is forced to aid the kingdom that took everything from her. Treason, death, and unlikely friendships blossom, and the world grows darker as an even greater threat rears its head. Dive into the realm of kings and secrets and follow along as Ozvra descends into a world she thought had long been lost.

A magic-addicted spy trapped in the queen's service must track a princess-turned-assassin in order to earn her freedom, but things get complicated when she falls for the princess she's supposed to capture. ***** Weak. Cursed. That's how seventeen-year-old Kayden Branimir, the realm's deadliest assassin, views herself. Some believe she could save the world with her rare healing magic, but she gave up on her powers long ago after failing to save her best friend. Her life changes when she receives a letter from her supposedly dead twin brother, Alaric, begging to be rescued from rival territory Leodia. For the first time since her friend's accident, Kayden is determined to be the hero, but she must learn to embrace her magic--and herself--along the way. Strange. Unnatural. Those are the words whispered about eighteen-year-old Zara Tait, a Leodian spy addicted to soul-stealing magic. Forced into the queen's service, Zara wants to escape and return home, but she has nothing to offer the queen in exchange for her freedom. When Kayden arrives in Leodia, Zara sees the quiet girl with unique magic as the bargaining chip she needs. But the more she learns of Kayden, the more her feelings grow. Now, Zara must choose between her freedom and the dangerous assassin she hadn't meant to fall for.

ONC#2019 Long List The legends spoke of it, the myths whispered of it too; tales of a sword, forged in hope and wrought in despair, drawn out in light and quenched in darkness, made by a simple blacksmith, yet a blade so powerful that it could even destroy the Gods. It is believed that the swordsman worthy of lifting this sword was a true warrior, one who would be rendered invincible. And those who survived the battles fought alongside this warrior, swore that they could hear the blade sing. It was during the darkest battles, where the very existence of the world was threatened, that the blade would find its blade master, the warrior who would need it to fight the battle, to hope for a chance at victory. At least that is what was believed, for no battle seemed dire enough to have the blade appear in the last four thousand years. Four thousand, one hundred and sixty five years after the last recorded tale of the battle,where the blade had appeared, sixteen year old Aindri, much to her shock and delight, discovers that the legends are true and the myths are facts. But then what the myths guarded was a fearsome secret; for the sword to be rendered powerful, it needed a sacrifice, a price to be paid, willingly... Completed.
