An Ava Lee Novel: The Triad Years

In the seventh novel in the bestselling Ava Lee series, Ava finds herself in a brand new world — the world of the infamous Triads.

It’s been three months since Uncle’s passing, and Ava is finally ready to begin her new life as a partner with May Ling Wong and her sister-in-law Amanda in the Three Sisters venture capital firm. Ava travels to Shanghai to hear a pitch on a new investment possibility: the creation of a fashion line by Clark and Gillian Po. She also meets with the mysterious Xu, a young man Uncle had been mentoring and who is the head of the Triad in Shanghai. Xu makes an audacious business proposal that she and May Ling are compelled to consider. Meanwhile, separately and privately, he confides to Ava that he intends to run for the chairmanship of the Triad Societies and attempts to recruit her as his adviser and confidante. 

Against her will, Ava becomes enmeshed in Triad warfare and her future is threatened . . .

This sample chapter is a Wattpad exclusive. Look for Ava Lee novels in a bookstore near you. The King of Shanghai will be released in December 2014.

Izuku Midoriya had a good life with his pro hero mother, Inko Midoriya , his average father, Hisashi Midoriya, and his twin sister, Izumi. However, things fell apart when Hisashi was killed in the wake of a villain's rampage. At the time, the twins were three, and Inko was hit the hardest. She felt worthless for not being able to protect her husband. But when she remarried to Toshinori Yagi, things began falling into place again. The Yagi family knew happiness, except for one. When the twins got their quirk results, Izumi was blessed with a Telekinesis quirk identical to her mother's, and Izuku was seemingly born with nothing. Because of this, he faced neglect from his parents, abuse from his friends and sister, and was told by everyone to give up his dream. One day, 13-year-old Izuku couldn't take it anymore. He ran away from the family that abandoned him for being born the way he was. On that night, a miracle happened. It's amazing what you're capable of when you cut out the things that held you back.
