Anna's mother always told her that a village will allow witchcraft if the witch is humble, but despite her training, humility is not one of Anna's strengths. When her mother leaves to tend to a nearby community, Anna's arrogance grows, and her spells become careless. The villagers begin to grumble, and Anna's mother arrives home to find her daughter on the cusp of danger; accusations have been leveled, and there are men in the village calling for Anna's death. Thinking quickly, her mother sends Anna to stay with her Aunt Anne, a lady in waiting to Countess Bathory, hoping that she will be safe in the castle.
DARK AS NIGHT is a YA Gothic tale inspired by the legend of Countess Bathory, the woman known as "the bloody countess", and woven through with pieces of the fairy tale "Snow White".

Sarah Summers thought she had everything figured out. But when her fathers decided to expand their family, Sarah's sense of reality slowly began to unravel. Against her will, she was forced to move across the country, and soon, everything she thought she knew was turned upside down. At her new school, she found herself entangled in a strange friend group, one where individuality seemed nonexistent. The members acted less like people and more like parts of a single, rule-bound entity. These rules pulled Sarah further and further from who she used to be, and over time, she began to forget how unsettling it all truly was. On her very first day, she was thrust into a bizarre ritual where the group chose who she would date. She had no say, not in who, not in when, not in how long and not even in whether the relationship would ever end. She had never questioned who she was or where she came from. As far as she was concerned, she knew everything she needed to know. She belonged to a loving family, and that had always been enough. But after a chilling encounter in the woods, the past began to stir, haunting her, pulling her toward a reality she had never known existed. Suddenly, the questions she had never thought to ask became impossible to ignore. Who was she, really? And where had she truly come from?Lengkap
Winding Dawn (Dusk Series - Book 9)
Eliza Lovell has lived a dangerous life, inducted into the hunter organization as a child and hunting vampires since she could walk. Though she wouldn't say she was unhappy. Nothing was more satisfying than sinking her spell-forged blades into the monsters that stalked and terrorized human kind. What she did was a service. It gave her purpose to get up in the morning and sound sleep at night. That was until she met her match with a deceptively alluring vampire named Ezra, and the world around her twists in new and dangerous ways. Vampire corpses begin to surface around town, drained of their blood, and the fingers are pointed at the hunter organization. Eliza had nothing to do with such grotesque displays of depravity, and neither did the hunters, but she doesn't like the sins of others painted on her back. To end the violence and to clear her name, she embarks on a journey to root out the evil poisoning her city. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Alec de Fluer is new to his role as a leader of the Fleurs, but peacekeeping has been in his blood since he was a child. When others fought, he sought to ease their quarrels and help them find peace, as he did now in the tumultuous society that was rebuilding before him. Someone is draining vampires of their blood and hanging them up for display, but there is more to it than just hate. Remnants of Copse magic linger at the dump sites, powerful yet foreign.
