Book 1 of the Shadows of Otherside series
Enter an urban fantasy world where elves, vampires, weres, djinn, and others maintain a precarious balance of power in North Carolina. Welcome to Otherside.

Private investigator and sylph Arden Finch is determined to come out of the shadows and practice her forbidden magic. There's just one problem: the elves have a bounty on elementals like her.

When an elf hires Arden without realizing what she is, she seizes the chance to gain leverage in the dangerous world of Otherside⁠-even if it means risking exposure. But as the case grows more perilous, Arden draws the attention of the region's deadliest power players. 

Fans of Kim Harrison, Faith Hunter, and the early Anita Blake series will find a kick-ass heroine in Arden.

Partisan - Book II by azimodo

*COMPLETE* "People don't believe in us anymore. They don't believe that in the end we will do what is right. We can't let them down. We can't let Ben win." Decisions made on top of the lonely, wind-swept cliff of Lethinor reverberate around the five kingdoms as war begins in earnest. This is a sequel to Paragon, it's my very, very, very strong recommendation you read it first, otherwise you will be totally lost. I am not joking. If your interest is piqued, here's a quick blurb for Paragon: _____________________ There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. _____________________ You can read Paragon here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/95374969-paragon Highest ranking: #86 in Fantasy 2/10/2018 WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.

A Court of Sirens and Shadows (An ACOTAR Fanfic) by Stelleon_

In the heart of the Night Court, Loralei has spent her life honing her skills in combat, refusing to be the girl who waits in the shadows. Born to Gwyneth Berdara and the legendary shadowsinger Azriel, she is the embodiment of strength-sharp, quick, and deadly. But beneath the surface, something stirs within her, an inheritance she doesn't fully understand, a latent power tied to her nymph heritage. When Kieran, a cunning thief from the Court of Nightmares, crashes a ball to steal a mysterious relic, he has no idea that his mission will entangle him with the daughter of a shadowsinger. Loralei should kill him where he stands. Instead, she finds herself drawn to him in a way she can't explain, as if something within her is reaching out. As the relic becomes the center of a brewing war between the Night Court and the Autumn Court, Loralei begins to feel the pull of something darker, something powerful-an unspoken force that is tied to her bloodline, yet she can't quite control. Bound by fate and their own dark abilities, Loralei and Kieran must navigate treachery, political intrigue, and a dangerous attraction neither can afford. But in a world where shadows whisper and unknown powers lurk, temptation can be a deadly game. The next generation of the Night Court rises. And a game of courts is about to begin.

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

Secrets of the Swords, Book 1 by lavenderstar

Acting normal is not the same as being normal. No one knows that truth better than Suthe Montikwe. Born with the unlucky genes of a distant druith ancestor, she's had to hide her talents in order not to be outcast by society. Her strategy is to smile, keep quiet, and work hard. While that method may keep her safe, it's also alienated her from her neighbors and friends, and the worry that she may be discovered is never far from her thoughts. When her country sends out a warrant to capture anyone who practices magic, Suthe is forced to seek refuge elsewhere, all the while wondering at the sudden proclamation. Why has the government taken an interest in her, and when will she be able to return home? Unsatisfied with her lack of answers, Suthe decides to investigate. But the more she looks, the deeper she gets herself into trouble, and she comes to realize that this mystery does not involve her country alone. The threat of war looms on the horizon, and Suthe will need to put her trust in the strangers she meets, including a dangerous spy wanted for the betrayal of his own country. But most importantly, Suthe will need to trust herself, and her abilities, if she ever wants to see home again. ~*~Current cover by Amanda-Mae ~*~ ~*~Previous cover by italychick~*~
