Shadow of Me
By Lorrisha Franklin
Born in fame. Protected by shadows. Haunted by a past she can't remember.
Lyra Cross thought she had it all - until her world shifted overnight.
A bond written in blood and starlight.
-x-
Why does the new protector feel like a ghost from another life?
What truths are hidden beneath his cold, unshakable eyes?
And why does danger seem to follow her... like a second skin?
-x-
When the past claws its way into the present,
trust is a weapon, and love is the deadliest game of all.
Would you run toward the unknown -
or stand and face the shadows calling your name?
Shadow of Me - where the moon remembers everything... even the things you tried to forget.

The Croatoan Calling
It started as a story. The kind you chase for headlines. The kind you don't expect to live. When a string of disappearances brings journalist-in-training Lyra to a quiet, off-the-map town, she thinks it's just another assignment. A historical rabbit hole. A forgotten legend. Then she meets him-Thane. Then she meets him-Keiran. And suddenly, the line between myth and memory starts to unravel. Secrets buried in blood. A name echoing through time: Croatoan. And a girl who was never just a girl. Lyra's not here to write the story. She is the story. If you're into cursed bloodlines, morally gray heirs, enemies who might be something more, and a mystery that spirals into something much bigger than anyone expected... Start reading here.Complete

A shadow that disappears whenever she turns to look. Is it paranoia? Or is someone really watching her? As the days pass, the feeling only grows stronger. And more dangerous. Because he's not just watching anymore... he's getting closer. And he's convinced they're meant to be. Everything Chloe thought she knew about safety, trust - and love - is about to be shattered. After all, some obsessions don't want to stay in the dark.

Elliora has always known how to survive-growing up with a drunk for a father, guarding a heart cracked by betrayal, and burying the aching need to be wanted. But survival means nothing when the Veil rips open and demons come hunting for her blood. Rescued-and then imprisoned-by four dangerously beautiful strangers, Elliora finds herself trapped in a house that shifts like a living thing, with magic she doesn't understand surging in her veins. The men who saved her aren't human. They're fallen angels. And they're convinced she's something rare. Something powerful. Something worth dying for. But Elliora doesn't trust easily. Especially not the cold, commanding leader with secrets behind his eyes. Or the storm-eyed healer who won't let himself feel. Or the wildfire-tempered protector with too much rage. Or the charming flirt who touches her like she's made of light. As Elliora struggles to control a magic that answers to no one-and to resist the pull of the four broken souls around her-an ancient enemy begins to haunt her dreams. He knows what she is. And he'll stop at nothing to claim her. Even if it means tearing the world apart to do it.
