Zela is something special. Rare. Hunted. After her forest haven is raided and her sisters stolen away and sold to powerful creatures throughout the world, she takes refuge in the only place she knew she could hide. Liverean Detainment Center, also known as The Tower. A magical prison where the worst of the worst magical offenders were imprisoned. As long as she has food and a steady supply of enchanted hair dye, she'll be fine. 
But when the dye runs out and her stunning red locks begin to bleed through, Zela is forced to make a decision about her future. Stay in the prison and be discovered and sold. Or find a way to escape and try to make it out in the world on her own.  
Neither option seemed like a good one, but when she decided to befriend a raven, both plans dissolve into a hazy mess that Zela never saw coming.All Rights Reserved

Blue by anonymous_freak

In a world where shifters reside, the amount of scales that covered your body determined your position in life. There were many colors of scales and in differing shades too, but black meant royalty. Royal blue scales laced Tallulah's body in unusual yet beautiful patterns of symmetry. Her coverage was unnatural for her position, but her beauty was also a shame she was forced to carry since birth; she was the bastard offspring of their lord. Tallulah was born to a realm where preference was never an option for her class. She was forced into marriage to a man who would rather hurt her than nurture her or allow her to escape her predetermined destiny or to seek out her own, but the world had other plans for Tallulah. Amidst her new life and understanding who she is becoming, Atlas, Crown prince of their land, comes into her life, knocking upside down her entire existence. Running from her past she ran straight into her future, for she was the mate of Atlas and she was scared.

For the Rebellion by addicted2dragons

Prince Theodred isn't interested in the responsibilities that come with his title. The only thing he is interested in is partying, flirting, and the occasional gossip scandal. After all, if everyone thinks the worst of him, he'll never have to disappoint anyone. King Tristan and Queen Lena have had enough! After a particularly extravagant party, they give him an ultimatum: Resolve the rebellion in Woodport or be cut off financially. They want to change him, but he has no desire to be anything he isn't. Eager to get back to his life of indulgence, he heads north. Theo intends to squash the rebellion through whatever means necessary. Then he meets the rebellion's leader. She's mysterious and beautiful, even if her face is hidden behind an ornate mask. He wants to know who she is, what makes her smile, and why she won't give in to his demands. But perhaps doing things on her terms is the way to get what he wants. Perhaps he might just find that he cares. Perhaps he was wrong, and change is inevitable. Perhaps he might become the prince he's spent his life avoiding. Perhaps, it will all be worth it.

The Prophecy by lspearson

Ariella's biggest desire in life has always been such a simple one. She wants to be 'normal.' Unfortunately, that one simple wish has never been within her grasp. Coming from a long line of witches is bad enough, but she's even more different than the rest of her family. The fact that no one will give her any answers to why she's so different doesn't help matters. Her entire existence is shrouded in secrets that everyone around her refuses to reveal. After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school. She makes friends, and she develops her first crush, that's quickly followed by her second. She's finally living the normal teenage life she'd dreamed of, but it doesn't last. Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process. She quickly realizes that sometimes ignorance really is bliss, and maybe she didn't really want to know the answers to the questions she'd always asked, especially when one of these truths causes people close to her to turn their backs on her without hesitation. Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart? One thing is for sure. She'll have to let go of her dream of 'normal.'

Towers [BOOK ONE] by lidlesaun

"Our kingdom was once beautiful, but now the towers are everywhere. They say that Queen Rapunzel has lost her mind--and I believe them. Before, I might have felt sorry for her, but now I just fear her. I fear the sound of her soldiers pounding at the door, demanding that I be taken away. I fear the towers." Years after the original tale of Rapunzel took place, the kingdom--left to the grief-stricken Queen after her husband's death--is falling apart. People live in constant fear of the many terrible towers across the land, built by her Majesty's decree to imprison any who dare question her. Bird's nothing but a girl from the north, but when someone she cares about is taken by the mad Queen's soldiers, she'll stop at nothing to save them. With nothing but her friends, a sled, and a mind full of songs, she sets out to get rid of the towers, once and for all. DISCLAIMER: this is a retelling of the *ORIGINAL FAIRY TALE* by the Brothers Grimm and has no connection to Disney's version whatsoever. DISCLAIMER PART II: I wrote this book when I was 15 and am still in the middle of huge revisions that I haven't posted here yet! Please feel free to read, but keep in mind this is a work in progress. :)

Where the Roots Begin by D2O9R0I8

What if you had the ability to write? What if you couldn't control the story you created? And what if, the magic kingdom your hands are so keen on writing about turned out to be real? Alessandra is used to the way things are. Life isn't great, but in no time she'll leave her small town behind. Everyday is the same to her, that is, until she gets kidnapped and taken to a Lab, where she receives training for what's on the other side of a mysterious portal -even though no one really knows what that is, exactly. When Alessandra is sent through, she finds herself in a strange forest, with the young king of an old kingdom, very much like the place she dreams and writes about. But this place is different, and once Alessandra starts unraveling the truth, she realizes some things are better kept hidden.

AN OFFER SHE CAN'T REFUSE by JDRAVENX80

🐺🐺🐺🐺 **Shifter werewolf RH fantasy romance** BOOK 2 IN THE SHADOW REALM SERIES. Can be read as a standalone The Quads. They were four of the hottest, most cutthroat, ruthless, dangerously mysterious and brooding, hot as fire seductive fraternal quadruplets anyone had ever laid eyes on-especially at Malsum High. Sebastian, Quinn, Xander and Hudson Calhoun... Their money, good looks, and high society privileges gained them notoriety and the finest things in life-and they relished in it. Fast cars, fast money, and fast women were all they could think about until she came along. For a long time, they didn't even think she truly existed. The little lady who had no home-no life, one best friend, forced to work for her aunt and uncle as a servant just to make ends meet--couldn't be the one? Could she? When Sabrina Brewster is kicked out of her family's house right after graduation, the boys are all too eager to take advantage of this little lady-the one they bullied-the one they wanted to ruin--until they discovered her truth. They find her wandering the streets, luggage in hand-her cap and gown still clinging to her soaked body as the rain rushed over her. Getting her in the car and back to their home for a shower and a warm meal was the easy part... Making her theirs even after she discovers all of the secrets the Quads have been keeping? Well, they'd have to make Sabrina an offer she couldn't refuse. 🐺🐺🐺🐺 cover pic by Gayle Berry
