"There's a war going on, Katarina," he hissed into my ear. "Remember which side you're on. And know that neither is the right one."
This world was built on power, lies and corruption. Our hands were always stained with blood. Our eyes were windows to the soul - but as we had no souls - they were completely empty.
We're fated to just be pawns in a war: soldier, healer, leader... destroyer. Pray you're not the last one. You're dead if you're the last one.
Katarina Arrowglass is seventeen, can see the futures of most people around her and has the damning legacy of being the next leader of the Light: a position that will pass from her father to her. But knowing every dirty secret and possible future of all those around her makes her wonder: what kind of place would she really be leading?
The training tasks mould you into the weapon you'll become for the Light against the Shadow. Find your way through the maze and hope you remember the skills that will get you out of there alive. Fight with your friends - and hope that when your back's turned to them, you won't be stabbed. Survive. Just survive.
Her partner in training is Ryder Stellaire and the same as her: leaders for parents, bright future ahead and enough suspicion to last a lifetime. The same - and yet not completely. Just as she's hiding growing fears, he's got his own secrets and soon enough, she'll uncover them all.
She just doesn't know if she wants to.
Anyone can look good. But don't pay attention to appearance. Because inside, you know what you'll find.
Because in this book, everybody's bad.
Readers... don't get too attached.

The fourteenth shift
Every year on February 8th, every fourteen-year-old is taken. No one knows where they go until it's their time. The place is hidden, the training brutal, the purpose clear: prepare them for the wars of a world kept in shadow. It's not punishment. It's not exactly a rescue either. It's something in between - a shift from innocence into something far more dangerous. When Jaquetta Virellith is taken, she stands out from the start. With violet hair and powers born from nightmare, she sees things no one else can - visions of death, destruction, and suffering that leave her body frozen and her soul shaken. Her fears are as unique and frightening as her gift: a terror of losing control, of tight spaces, of food, of sickness. She keeps them hidden behind a stillness that unsettles even the instructors. By her side is Liri Thalen, fierce, funny, and full of fire, whose bright pink braids and rapid-flash movement power make her impossible to miss - or ignore. But even Liri has fears she won't admit aloud: the dark, being left behind, and not being enough when it matters. Kael Drennor, with dusk-blue hair and shields made of light, is built to protect - and yet he's crumbling inside. Haunted by a fear of deep water and the secrets he keeps buried, he doesn't expect to feel drawn to Jaquetta. But something in her silence echoes his own. And Rowen Stride, silver-haired and sharp-tongued, has powers rooted in sound and humor hiding something quieter - a fear of failure, of being forgotten, of being truly known. Liri gets under his skin in ways no one else can. Together, they will be tested. Their fears will be used against them. And some of them won't come out the same. But for him... he couldn't resist her beautiful sapphire blue eyes.Complete
The Dark Side of the Moon
"Fuck, baby. You can't say things like that to me. I want to, also. Trust me." His hand snakes down my body until he enters two of his fingers into my wet center. I can only moan in response. "However," he kisses my neck possessively, finding the right spot to drive me crazy. "I need to build you up to that." He pushes his fingers in and out of me, hitting deeper and deeper as his strokes become longer and harder and faster. "You feel that? My fingers deep in your pussy that's dripping for me?" He licks the side of my neck as my breaths come out in short pants. "My dick is going to stretch you out so much more. When I finally fuck you, you're going to be sore for days. And you're going to love it." ---------- Thea Brooks, an 18-year-old college student, lives her life by a schedule.

All hope is lost until one of his pack mates strolls into his home with the most magnificent scent- his mate's scent. After only slightly maiming his pack mate, it is revealed that his mate is close by- and human. Without understanding the supernatural world existing around her, Thea will have to learn to look past Grayson's faults- mainly his possessiveness and anger issues- while staying out of danger from unknown threats and learning her place at Grayson's side. Oh... and keeping her grades up. How hard can that be?Complete

He's My Mate
CAUTION CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT. "Say it, Allison," he said, his voice low as he trapped me against the rough wall. A shiver ran down my spine, his voice pulling at me, the power in it making me want to do anything he asked. I shook my head, afraid my voice might betray me. His teeth lightly grazed my neck causing a sigh to get past my lips. I could feel him smile against my skin. He knew he was going to get what he wanted one way or another. I tried to slip away, but he grabbed my wrists, pinning them down tightly. He pressed his hard body against me. I was aware of every inch of him that was touching me. "Don't think you can just leave. We're not done yet." My stomach tightened at his words, the desire inside burning for him. My damn body at war with my mind yet again. He slid his hand up to the edge of my shorts, slowly working it's way up as his mouth trailed small nips from my neck to my collar bone and lower, stopping only when he reached the fabric. I could feel my resolve weakening as his hand reached its destination. "Say it," he demanded. I moaned, my head tipping back as he moved expertly. I wanted to say it then, I really did.

The Forged Royal
In the kingdom of Veylora, magic is everything. The world is split in two: those who wield Light, and those who command Shadow. At nineteen, she is the future Queen of Light, born with power that should save her people-yet her own magic has spiraled out of control, leaving ruin and destruction in its wake. For her crimes, the ruthless gods place her on trial, offering only one cruel chance at redemption: she has exactly one year to undo the damage she caused, or face the consequences of her failure. To guide her, they assign her a Solvyr-a fae bound to help her heal the land. But Damian is nothing like the protectors she expected.
