Born to privilege, called to service, trained for command, 17-year-old Lieutenant Nile Greysik finally gets the chance to prove herself a leader. As she takes charge of a captured enemy ship, her orders will take her through hostile waters and stormy seas with a hold full of prisoners, a skeptical crew, and a handsome first mate whose every move undermines her confidence. To navigate to safe harbor, Nile must earn the crew’s trust...but first, she must dare to trust herself.

The quint has finally reunited, but their stunning new discovery changes everything. Just as Lera and the males navigate their redefined future, Owalin violently ups the stakes, giving the humans one hour to hand over their kingdoms. Lera must do all she can to help defeat him, even if that means facing down her own males and the humans themselves.

It’s the first day of the Prowess Trials, with all the royals - and the dark fae Owalin - gathered for Tye’s grand performance. When the magic wards fall right in the middle of Tye’s routine, Lera does what she must to save his life - giving Owalin just the opening he needs. River is in love with Lera, but he can’t be with someone who lies. As he turns his back on her to focus on defending the academy, he expects the decision to hurt.

Fending off Coal’s memories by night and his overprotectiveness by day, Lera is at her wits’ end - and the muscled warrior is only the start of her problems. With Han on his side, headmaster Sage now wants to move the Prowess Trials to the academy, gathering the continent’s royals right at the heart of the cracking wards - and the dark creatures leaking through them.

Two dark pasts. One bond beyond their control. For a month, Coal has tried to stay away from the beautiful cadet who makes him feel things he shouldn’t, each day of separation spiraling him deeper into worsening nightmares. Already on edge, it takes Coal one split second to plunge into violence - and find himself in shackles once more.

Lera is walking a dangerous tightrope. By night, she takes off her veil to hunt the dark creatures leaking into the mortal world. By morning, she is Leralynn of Osprey again, failing her classes and dodging Deputy Headmaster River’s keen scrutiny. River is watching Leralynn like a hawk. A painful distraction, since the mouthy cadet stirs his soul - and other parts of him - with a mere glance. Which doesn’t matter. Lera is a student and River will ensure she toes the line, or else.

Lera was once human. Now, with dark magic leaking into the mortal world, Lera and her four fae warriors must protect her home realm - even if that means going undercover to a human military academy. But when a sudden, terrible accident melds the males with their human disguise, everything changes. Now it’s up to Lera to make her mates remember themselves, their mission, and her, before the entire mortal world pays the price.

In one breathless moment, royal scout Kali's world has turned on its head. Bishop Bahir has deposed the king and seized the palace - with Kali's sister trapped inside. Now on the run, Kali, Trace, and the future king of Dansil have only one place to go for help: Everett, an enemy kingdom of which Trace is the presumed dead heir. As Trace reclaims his identity - one that may leave no room for a Dansil spy - Kali faces her own growing magic, which may be their only hope of stopping Bahir.

Tye has sacrificed everything for his chance at the Prowess Trials, and Lera’s betrayal in reporting his injuries nearly ended it all. Now, there is nothing left but to kick Lera out of his world...and ensure the eviction stays. With less than a week until the continent’s royals descend upon the Academy, Lera has only one last idea for staying close to the high-value targets: join the Prowess team made up of their children.

Orphaned and trained on a spymaster’s remote estate, Kali is a scout who works alone in the shadows. But when a terror group threatens the Dansil throne, the king forces Kali to accept a mission at the palace or forfeit her sister’s life. Suddenly thrust into the light, Kali must infiltrate high society as the royal Lady Lianna while penetrating the servant ranks as Kal, a male guardsman trainee. It doesn’t help that Trace, the harsh and enigmatic captain of the king’s guard, is soon assigned as both Lady Lianna’s palace escort and Kal’s commanding officer.

Lera isn’t a hero. The world doesn’t know that. Lera needs to keep her head down - not an easy feat when a giant gray wolf with a fondness for her dorm room starts roaming the Academy. Worse still, Lera’s caught the attention of the powerful and popular Princess Katita, who doesn’t like her territory trespassed upon - especially when that territory is a particular red-haired athlete.... Tye learned the hard way years ago that competition training and love don’t mix, but every moment he spends with Lera is testing that resolve.

She broke the rules. Now he sets the consequences. Lera crossed the line when she disobeyed River’s orders and went over the Academy wall. Now River wants Lera gone - and Coal is just the officer to make her quit. For Coal, disciplining a wayward cadet is a matter of routine - but he may be in over his head with this fiery student. Leralynn is far stronger than she looks, and with her eerily familiar chocolate eyes and maddening curves, she’s bringing demons to the surface...demons that Coal thought long buried.

Um die Menschenwelt zu retten, müssen wir ein Teil von ihr werden. Mächtige Magie dringt in die Welt der Menschen ein und bedroht ihre und unsere Welt. Um diese Bedrohung aufzuhalten, müssen meine Gefährten und ich uns zur mutmaßlichen Quelle begeben … Der Great Falls-Militärakademie. Allerdings geht unser Plan, uns als Menschen zu tarnen, schief. River, Tye, Coal und Shade sind durch die Magie, zu dem geworden, in was sie sich verwandelt haben, und haben vergessen wer – und was – wir sind.

Six months have passed since Princess Nile Greysik changed the course of the Tirik war and earned her place in the Felielle navy . . . or thought she did. With the war taking a violent new turn, Nile - joined by a cryptic empath named Kyra - sails out to beg support from the isolationist Diante Empire. But with a chauvinistic crew waiting for Nile to fail and even Domenic questioning her authority, one wrong step could strip Nile of her command mid-voyage.

Die Talonswood-Reformakademie steht unter neuer Leitung – eine im Vampirstil. Und der neue Dekan will, dass Reese, der dunkle, grüblerische Stellvertreter der Akademie, mir vampirischen Gehorsam beibringt.

To protect the throne, 17-year-old spy Kali must play a male guardsman trainee by day and royal lady by night. Orphaned and trained on a spymaster’s remote estate, Kali is a scout who works alone in the shadows. But when a terror group threatens the Dansil throne, the king forces Kali to accept a mission at the palace or forfeit her sister’s life. Suddenly thrust into the light, Kali must infiltrate high society as the royal Lady Lianna while penetrating the servant ranks as Kal, a male guardsman trainee.

Es sollte ganz einfach sein. Die Wahrheit aufdecken, die Drachen retten. Das war, bevor wir erfuhren, aus welch perverser Quelle die Macht der Priester stammt. Und was unsere Feinde alles tun würden, um sie zu bewahren. Unsere Feinde wollen uns nicht nur töten, sie wollen uns kontrollieren. Um das zu erreichen, sind sie bereit, unsere Körper, unseren Verstand und unsere Herzen zu zerstören. Die Liebe ist unser Band. Unsere Rettung. Unsere Macht. Aber wird sie ausreichen? Das Leben aller Drachen hängt davon ab.

Pflegekind. Abschaum. Das ist alles, was ich für die Welt bin. Und das ist auch gut so. Nachdem ich das Pflegesystem von New Jersey überlebt habe, kann ich alles überleben. Dank dessen überlebe ich sogar einen gefährlichen Job, den ich von einem großen, gut aussehenden Fremden annehme, damit ich meine kleine Schwester beschützen kann – ein Job, der vollkommen nach hinten losgeht.

Zwei Reiche am Rande des Krieges. Eine Sterbliche, die zwischen ihnen steht. Während der Quint gegen den König von Slait kämpft, läuft Lera die Zeit davon, um ihre ungezügelte Magie zu kontrollieren. Schlimmer noch: Gerade als der Quint fest zusammenhalten muss, um zu überleben, tauchen Dämonen aus Tyes Vergangenheit auf, um sie auseinanderzureißen. Dämonen, die er fürchtet, sich selbst zu stellen, und nicht bereit ist, sie mit Lera zu teilen. Doch als Griorgi einen Zug macht, mit dem niemand rechnet, und Rivers, Shades und Coals Leben in Gefahr bringt, läuft die Zeit ab.

Eine Abmachung wurde getroffen. Ein Pakt geschlossen. Nun müssen die Drachenprinzen mich zu einer akzeptablen Braut machen. Allerdings werden die Bräute der Drachen von Kindesbeinen an geformt, während Tavias’ Rudel nur wenige Wochen Zeit hat, aus mir eine annehmbare Frau zu machen. Um mich das Kämpfen zu lehren. Mich zu benehmen. Mich zu paaren.Während unser Schiff über das Meer in Richtung der Äquinoktium-Prüfungen segelt, ist die Gefahr nicht nur auf die Kreaturen in den Tiefen des Ozeans beschränkt.
