Born with the ability to copy another supernaturals' powers with a single kiss, she was perfect for one ruthless leader to fulfill his plans of enslaving all who oppose him.

When the three gods of the dream world accidentally caused a mass homicide, their father, Erebus, decided to punish them and send them to the mortal realm. The oldest brother, the weaver of dreams who could mimic any human form, found the humans dull playthings that were beneath him. The youngest, the weaver of surreal visions who could mimic any form of nature, had always been secretly in love with the complicated race. The middle child, the weaver of nightmares who could mimic animals and monsters, carried the guilt why all three were banished and he desired nothing more but to return to his post. The brothers were proud gods who worried that the world would become drearier without them to inspire the mortals through their dreams. They did not want to leave their crucial responsibility with their father who was too busy forming darkness. They always believed mortals were tedious and unimaginative creatures who needed their guidance. Until they met Selene. ** The Penguin Awards - Second Place (Fantasy) Raven Awards - Third Place (Fantasy)

In the medieval continent of Terrall, the existence of witches and wizards are rare. Feared and persecuted by some while revered and glorified by others, most of them choose to live their lives safe in secrecy. But not all. Enter the Western kingdom of Uldard, where rumors of a nefarious 'Snow Witch' leaving destruction in her wake has reached the people's ears-including a homeless and quick-witted crow thief named Noct, who holds an intense resentment towards those of her kind. Noct finds himself deceived by fate when he chooses the wrong person to steal from-a seemingly harmless girl with white hair and unnaturally silver eyes named Chell. When the thief finds out that Chell is actually the rumored Snow Witch, the tables are turned and instead of keeping his distance, an unavoidable series of events and circumstances leads to him and the girl creating an oath to each other: for him to protect her and for her to repay him. A witch. A thief. A curse. A promise. This is the beginning of an unlikely tale of two people and their long, perilous journey. | stunning cover by @-rayofsunshine ! | #71 in Fantasy (3/4/17) | Vol. 1 in The Wandering Witch series

*Highest Ranking: #4 in Vampire* "Get. Away. From me." I warned. He blinked, and a slow smile formed its way onto his face. I clenched my fists, fighting the urge to brush a stray lock of midnight black hair from his forehead; he looked positively angelic when he smiled. "You don't want that," he murmured, his face dipping closer to mine. I pressed myself harder against the wall as he continued, his breath cool on my lips and so, so tempting. "You want me, Elizabeth. And out of every beautiful human girl in my estate tonight, I want you too." **** Sebastian Rockefeller is Lake Village's newest vampire. Lake Village banned the turning of humans 100 years ago; Sebastian has taken residence there and for the past 100 years, treated humans as cattle. No army is strong enough to overthrow him, and no other vampire dares to set foot in his territory. Despite the danger, humans flock around him in hopes of becoming immune to the march of time, and every year he hosts a ball to give them the chance to catch his interest, yet he has never taken it seriously. Now, Sebastian is tired of ruling alone.

Cole Glassad couldn't care less about the upcoming palace ball meant to find a wife for the prince. Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal. With life a living hell, she has barely enough energy to care for the injured animals she tends in secret, much less a party for the royal family that cares so little for her and the people like her. It isn't until a mysterious man appears out of the shadows, claiming to be one of the long-lost faeries and offering her a chance at freedom, that she begins to see hope. In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line. With her mission clear, Cole enters the world of the palace to learn about the prince and find a way into his ball. But dark secrets, violent plots, a strange sense that perhaps the prince isn't as bad as the faerie makes him seem, and a life-changing discovery about her past, all conspire to make Cole's shot at freedom messy and difficult. She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.

There was a bet going on between the male student body that attended Culver Creek High School. It reads as follows: -No girl can ever know about this challenge (Especially Charlie- duh), or the bet is off. -The first guy that can willingly take Charlie Harper's virginity would win the bet. -There had to be pictures to prove it. -If anyone told a girl about the deal, he would be shunned and bullied for basically the rest of his high school experience by all the pissed off guys who were trying to actually get into Charlie's pants. -The winner, if there was one, would get 500 dollars, chipped in by 20 dollar entry stakes from all the boys attending the school, and would be the most respected boy that has ever went to Culver Creek High School So far, it's been 3 years and no one has been able to win over Charlie's heart. Meaning, there are very, very high stakes on this bet. It's senior year, and everyone's last chance. Hence, anything goes. So what happens when somewhere along the way, someone falls in love? What happens when someone's heart is broken? Will Charlie lose the big V? And if she does, what the hell happens next?
