When Sapphire Quartz comes home from college for the summer to her small hometown she's in for a definite surprise. Working at her uncle's pub, Sapphire has to not only take orders but also look after her bookworm-antisocial cousin as well. But when her aunt invites her to go see a mysterious performance in the forest everything starts to change. Especially when all the tiny magical creatures in Quartz Central, Washington forest start to talk to Sapphire again.
Sapphire has banned herself from going into the forest after dark but the voices right outside her window bid her to come out just once more like she did before as a child. Can she keep to her normal schedule or will the mystery of the forest enchant her once again with their mystical quartz necklaces? Surviving one summer back home can't be too hard right? I mean one stalker-like performer isn't that hard to elude or even running into her own parents can't be a problem...right?

As the Crow Falls | ✔
Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

Perennial: Book 1 Of The Bright Series
Amelia Bright has a special skill; when she talks to plants, they respond. Well, not immediately. But they grow better when she sits in her garden and has a chat. In a world where vampires hide in nightclubs and wizards advertise their services to a skeptical society via an ignored newspaper, Amelia retreats to a cottage she inherited from a reclusive aunt.

What does Martin want? Will Amelia be able to shake that weird feeling before it forces her out of her lucky inheritance? And, perhaps more importantly, if a random guy advertising his services as a professional wizard can catch a break, is there a way to earn a living slowly growing happy plants?Concluída
