Things are heating up at this dragon academy...I'm Sorcha McMurphy, and last semester didn't exactly work out like I planned. Everyone at the academy hates me. The sexiest guy on campus tried to kill me. And I epically failed at saving the world. Between fighting bad guys, studying magic, and learning how to fly my dragon, a girl barely has time to go on a date. But I've been chosen to find the missing Dragon King. If I mess up this time, there will be big consequences. And they'll be a hell of a lot worse than crawling into bed with Oliver Loughlin...

Humanity is on the verge of extinction. The government has a simple plan to save the species: mandatory genetic matching. But it's not so simple when it's your own life on the line. Sadie doesn't want to marry a stranger at nineteen, let alone figure out which of her seven matches is the best fit. Things get even worse when one of the other women in the program gets drugged and disappears for voicing a complaint. Can Sadie navigate the matching program and save her friend, or will she get swallowed up by the conspiracy herself?

Kidnapped from their honeymoon resort, nothing is as it seems. Betrayal, intrigue, and secrets abound as Sadie works to free the captive women. Will she end up the savior or the next captive? With Patrick the only solid ground in a sea of uncertainty, the two of them must work to come together, or they'll fall apart. Pressure builds from all sides, and they must choose—to assume the royal mantle or the path of freedom and anonymity. Old friends and temporary allies abound, but only one thing is certain: someone's lying.

They find a home together in “the grove,” a refuge for the city’s outcasts.

Willkommen an der Darkblood... ups, ich meine Darkhen Academy. Es gibt drei Regeln, um an der Eliteschule für übernatürlich Begabte zu überleben: 1. Sprich nicht mit den Sieben, der Clique, die die Akademie beherrscht. Schau nicht einmal in ihre Richtung. 2. Gehe niemals bei Vollmond in den Fae-Wald... 3.Und verliebe dich auf keinen Fall in deinen extrem heißen, geheimnisvollen Lehrer. Leider habe ich mich noch nie wirklich an Regeln gehalten.

Willkommen an der Darkblood … ups, ich meine Darkhen Academy. Unsere Aufgabe ist einfach: Wir sollen alle Dämonen töten, bevor sie in der Menschenwelt Schaden anrichten und den zerbrechlichen Frieden zwischen unseren beiden Reichen zerstören.

Zum Glück ist mein lang verschollener Vater aufgetaucht und hat versprochen, mir zu helfen.

Life for 13-year-old Joseph Young is pre-defined, living in a small-town farming community where generations upon generations have lived, where everybody knows everybody, and where everybody takes care of everybody. When the government's newly formed Children's Alliance Coalition announces they will be coming to town to audit families, everybody is walking on eggshells. Families are told that if they do not meet Coalition standards, their children will be taken and placed in approved Coalition homes, never to see their families again upon fear of punishment or death.
