What doesn't kill you will make you stronger. Or so the saying goes. That was before Trip Cohen, the number one bully at the academy, entered my life and dragged me to the depths of hell. The petty, conniving, brat sunk his claws into me, defiled and degraded me, but Trip isn't used to girls like me -girls from outside the hallowed, protected walls of Sparrowood. Strong girls with three street-wise, protective K-boys that have my back, body, and soul.

Sacrifices—that’s what females make to live in Serendee—an urban utopia. We give up our family, our choices, our bodies. Some people call it a cult, but they don’t understand. We give it our all, and in return, Serendee gives back by providing a safe, idyllic home. Starting with The Order, a marriage arranged by the leader of Serendee to the male of his choice. I don’t expect the perfect mate, but when I’m matched with Rex—the rebellious, handsome, and destructive heir of Serendee, I’m stunned.

Knock down one bully and another one takes their place. Eden must figure out a way to live with the fallout at Sparrowood Academy after she and the K-Boys take down their leader in the gripping second installment of this series.

In the high-pressure world of varsity hockey at Wittmore U, being the team intern means more than overseeing grueling workouts and injuries. It's the colossal egos of the players that truly test my patience. Even if they did see me as something more than another locker room fixture created to tend to their bodies, my boss has made one thing clear:

I've spent my life under the control of one man, the leader of Serendee. What I eat. How I dress. When I sleep. I thought he knew best, that only he could lead me to Enlightenment. But after I learn about the truth of Serendee, what lies beneath the perfect surface, I see him for who he really is—a monster.

Keep calm and survive high school. That was my motto. It was easier with the Allendale Four by my side, and with college on the horizon, I had no doubt we'd have the best time of our lives. No parents. No rules. Lots of freedom. Except, even with the bullies that harassed me out of the picture, the past is hard to shake. New obstacles emerge, along with old hang-ups and bad habits.

Amelia’s world grows dark as her life and love hangs in the balance. Despite the consequences, she has made her choice, and now must help the Palmers fight to find Olivia, who has been abducted by Caleb. Even if she can find the missing piece of the vampire’s narcissistic game, the damage may be irrevocable. Each member handles the fallout differently; Elijah is a wreck, Sebastian has gone missing, and Grant is on the warpath.

Amelia should have run when she had the chance. Away from Asheville. Away from her job. But most importantly, away from her deadly boss, Grant Palmer. Instead, she finds the draw of Grant irresistible even after he reveals his darkest secrets. Amelia remains in Asheville even though a killer is stalking her, knowing the one person who can protect her is equally dangerous.

Grant Palmer spends his days in an expensive suit and tie, funding charitable works for his family’s foundation. His nights are reserved for patrolling the small city of Asheville and the bordering mountainside in an effort to protect residents from rogue vampires. Why? He has his own collection of kills to atone for from his own days as a rebellious, bloodthirsty killer.

What happens when the road of love is filled with detours? Or giant potholes and washed out bridges. I had the Allendale Four. Had them. In my heart. In my bed. And then...I lost them. But our bonds are linked and when one of the boys needs me, I’m there. We’re there and that’s when the road gets bumpier than ever before.

No good deed goes unpunished. I learned that lesson the hard way when I agreed to helping my friend Justin with a favor. My platonic friend Justin. A favor that helped him with his reputation, but turned mine into the trending topic at my school.
