17-year-old Aurora has been locked in her room for the past 10 years. So when a chance to escape arrives, she takes it. However, the world outside of her room is new and frightening, full of unspoken rules and ridged hierarchy. Left with no other way to get money, Aurora signs up for a competition held by the king, the prize, 40000 silvers. When her name gets called for the competition, Aurora is whisked away into a world of secrets and mystery, one that everyone but her seems accustom to. Amongst her fellow competitors is a cynical boy named Camden, and a pretty, vivacious girl, Leigh. The further Aurora digs, she finds that the perfect system of power is not as wonderful as it may seem, that nearly everyone is hiding secrets, and that deep down inside of her, an unstable magic is brewing, one that the world of Versaria may not be ready for.

The Silver Prince by aflowers3238

For 17-year-old Nyx Madden, stealing shadows is second nature. This rare power allows her to control the person whose shadow she holds. And, since she's been on her own for the past five years, it's her only chance at survival. But Nyx's life in the shadows is jeopardized when she is visited by Victor, the enigmatic leader of the criminal underworld. Somehow, he discovered that she is the faceless Shadow Thief, Itoria's most wanted criminal. If he reveals her identity, she'll be hanged. Victor strikes a deal with Nyx. He'll give her more gold than she knows what to do with in exchange for the shadow of Itoria's Silver Prince, thus nicknamed for his fickle nature and careless wealth. Nyx readily agrees, as this may be the last shadow she ever has to steal. And, considering the Silver Prince's rotten reputation, Itoria can only improve with him out of the way. In order to take the prince's shadow, Nyx must uncover his greatest fear and confront him with it. She infiltrates the castle, where she discovers that nothing in Itoria is as it seems, including the prince himself. Stuck under his dying father's thumb, the Silver Prince has little freedom-but his selfish, callow nature might be hiding a golden heart. With her identity hanging in the balance, Nyx finds the fate of the entire kingdom in her hands-and her own heart in the hands of the Silver Prince.

faultline (twisted devotion, #1) by luhvbcmb

Aurora Kensington has spent years trying to silence the voice in her head-the one that sounds too much like Briar Holloway. The girl who was once her best friend. The girl who came out to her. The girl she pushed away. Now eighteen, Aurora is desperate to prove she's everything she's supposed to be: a good daughter, a devoted Catholic, normal. But no matter how hard she prays, no matter how many rules she follows, she can't shake the feeling that something inside her is broken. And when she sees the lights on in the Holloway house for the first time in years, something deep in her chest stirs. She doesn't know Briar is back. Not until she turns around at a party and finds her standing there. Briar never planned to return to Chapelwood, but with her family drowning in debt and her grandmother's health failing, she had no choice. She tells herself she doesn't care about Aurora anymore-that she only came to this party because she thought it'd be funny. But the second their eyes meet, the past slams into her like a tremor. Old wounds. Old feelings. Ones that never truly faded. Because "love" (if you can call it that) like theirs doesn't disappear. It fractures. It festers. It trembles under the weight of everything unsaid. And if they're not careful, it might just swallow them whole. But none of it truly matters anyway. Not unless Aurora is willing to face the truth about herself. A story about love, sin, and the thin line between devotion and obsession.

Dropped on the doorstep of a poor village during a storm, sixteen-year-old Eleanor has always been a misfit. Now, accepted into Winston Magic Academy in the capital city, she steps into a world of power, politics, and danger where her lack of magic should mark her as invisible. But Eleanor hides a secret... one that could rewrite everything the academy thought it knew about magic. As two castles-one radiant, one ominous-cast their shadows over the city, Eleanor is drawn into a growing conflict between ancient forces. Whispers speak of a forbidden tenth magic, long buried in myth and fear. And those whispers seem to follow her. Meanwhile, tensions rise beyond the capital walls-a powerful neighboring kingdom threatens war, led by a cruel ruler who hungers for control over all ten magics. With unexpected allies, enemies in disguise, and a charming boy who may not be what he seems, Eleanor must decide: will she run from the power stirring inside her-or let it rise?
