Weird things always happen around Glen Sellers. Like when she was nine and crossed the road without looking both ways. One second a truck barreling towards her, the next second she's safe and sound by the side of the road without a scratch on her. Another time when she was at a sleepover at her friend's house and woke up in her own bed. Tired of the stares and whispers, at fifteen, Glen moves to Aldenville, Iowa (aka the middle of nowhere), a tiny town with more cows than people and where no one has a clue who she is. Finally, these strange happenings that have always plagued Glen and separated her from the rest of the world have seemed to stop. Could she be so lucky? No. When a handsome stranger appears (literally?!) at her door and claims he knows what she is, Glen is swept into a world filled with magic, adventure and maybe a (little) romance.

Amulet
Emily has always been a simple village girl-or so she thought. Raised by her loving but secretive Nana and Uncle Sebastian, her life has been anything but ordinary. Every five years, they uproot and move to a new place. And then there's the one thing that sets her apart from everyone else: she can teleport. In the Six Kingdoms, creatures known as "Travelers"-those who can cross between realms-are believed to be long extinct. But Emily is living proof that the legends are wrong. She has inherited a rare and powerful gift, one that once belonged to her mother. Yet, this ability is dangerous, a secret that must be kept at all costs. When Emily stumbles upon the truth about her parents' past, she is thrust into a world of hidden legacies, forbidden magic, and long-buried secrets. As she unravels the mysteries surrounding her origins, she must learn to control a power that could tear the very fabric of reality apart. Who can she trust when even those closest to her have secrets of their own? With only a forgotten amulet, the echoes of a mother she never knew, and the unwavering love of her guardians, Emily must navigate a path fraught with peril, love, and betrayal. Because in a world where the past refuses to stay buried, her destiny is not just her own-it could determine the fate of all realms.
Struck (A Vampire Novel) ✔
[Completed] Elysia's life is turned upside-down when she's abducted by supernatural creatures with demonic eyes and threatening fangs. What's worse is she has no idea what it is they want from her, except that it has something to do with a side of her that she's never known. The chances of Elysia getting out alive are slim, but perhaps with a bit of luck and a lot of bravery she can escape with more than just her life. Excerpt: ''What trick is this?'' The creature asked, but it didn't sound like a vicious question. He sounded... confused. When I didn't answer, he appeared in front of me, snatching my face in his hand once more and growling. ''What is that on your back?'' ''I don't know,'' I blindly answered, but corrected myself quickly when his grip tightened dangerously, ''It's a birth mark, the doctors called it a... a Lichtenberg figure. My mother said I was born with it, I swear it, even though it's usually what happens when you survive being struck-'' ''-by lightning.''
