The Spirit Seducer by Alexa_Padgett

A god undone by prophecy. A warrior strong as the earth. And the woman who will decide their fate... The dream comes every night: A warrior clad in leather and wielding a spear, fighting off demons with the heads of jackrabbits and pumas. Defending her. Echo Ruiz knows it's ridiculous. There's no one in Santa Fe less likely to need defending. Thanks to the migraines, she's confined to her mother's house. Her Native American Studies classes are online, and she hasn't made a new friend in a decade. Until her twenty-first birthday party, when trickster Coyote himself shows up. An hour later, Echo is on the run from the power-hungry god. Her headaches are gone. Her mother is a hostage, and she's been thrust into a mirror-world of deadly loveliness to fight or die. Her dream warrior? He's as real as the sweat on her skin. His name is Zeke, and he remembers a lot more about Echo than she does about him. So does her best friend, Layla, who has secrets Echo's never guessed. But if Echo wants to defeat Coyote-if she wants to survive-she'll have to discover the way herself. Because that's one ending the legends have never told...

The Pain Thief by DarkeningSkies

Zoe Szramik has had a tough life. When she was only eight years old, her parents were killed while she ran away in fear. Even at the age of seventeen, their deaths still haunt her. That's not the whole story though. For as long as she could remember, Zoe has had white hair, and only a few months after her parents' deaths, she developed a special ability to heal, to physically steal pain, and to create shields out of light. She wasn't the only one either. Her best friend Jack can create swords out of thin air. Both of them are unique, which tends to lead them into trouble. Now with Jack and her two wolf guides Malachi and Reyna, Zoe needs to find a way to keep everyone safe before everything comes crashing down. (I've also actually published a heavily edited version of this book for the Kindle, under the same title, with new chapters and other changes- You know you want to check it out!)

MONSTER OF THE UNKNOWN by itz_mezieee

Almost a millenium ago, the dear world we live in was almost destroyed when the superhumans we call "zegens" created a creature too powerful for them to control. Their monstrosity - Feto - would have ended humanity as we know it if not for the intervention of the courageous heroes who risked their lives to seal it away. Many centuries later, in 2023, the new generation of the Zomer (the cult that nearly inadvertently caused the apocalypse) is back and they are now targeting Aaron, a teenage zegen orphan living in Brussels, Belgium. Little by little, with the help of his classmates - Mathéo, Sara and Laura - the boy unravels the secrets behind his conception and the four adolescents are all roped into an iniquitous plot that's much bigger than all of them. What truly happened to Aaron's parents for them to have abandoned him? Why is the Zomer so interested in him? Could any of this be connected to Feto? Cover art by @hxllsing
