Do you ever get the feeling you were born for so much more than this?

On the 31st of December there was always a dawn, there was always Emmeline, and there were always tears. The day Emmeline turns twenty-one marks the return of the darkness that took her parents when she was ten. What begins with a rough night out ends with a home invasion and a visit to A&E, and now the police want to speak with her.

As her fractured world descends into even greater chaos, Emmeline decides to run. But instead of running away, she finds herself running straight into the arms of the coming storm. 

The Ferryman of the Dead has come to claim her soul, but when he unexpectedly changes the game and risks everything to save her life, she realises being kidnapped by Death may not be such a bad thing after all. 

As for the rest of the monsters out for her blood, well, that's another matter all together...

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

Jazlyn and Jason were best friends. They knew everything about each other each other and they spent a lot of time together. That is, until Jason suddenly disappears after a normal day at school. After searching for 2 months, the search was stopped and a funeral was held for Jason, although it was never confirmed if he was dead or alive. Since Jason's disappearance case was stopped, the police started looking into a new case. One about a mysterious creature that wrecks rooms, offices and even hospitals at night, as if it's looking for something. In each place the mysterious creature was, the police and detectives found a huge claw mark on a surface. Everyone were terrified of the night, as they should be, but Jazlyn and Aaron were for some reason just very interested. Until one day, something strange happened... Jazlyn discovered that it's not only pure humans that inhabit the world, that there are others living amongst them. She also begins to get visits from the spirits of her deceased family. That was just the beginning though. Jazlyn didn't expect to find her long lost friend after 3 months. She didn't expect to be torn between her feelings for two of her closest friends. She didn't expect to be betrayed by someone she really loved. She didn't expect to be the one to save the world from destruction. What does the future hold for Jazlyn? Will Jazlyn choose follow the fate that was passed onto her? Who will Jazlyn choose as her mate? **Violence/shooting, mentions of blood and swearing**
