The bar Sophia Pearce is in doesn't look like much. The wine is bad and the decor worse. But when a sudden attack of curiosity leads her to sneak past security and into the back room, she discovers something unimaginable. The most lavish party she's ever laid eyes on, in the most unlikely of places. But that's nothing compared to what comes next, to the man she meets back there. Sebastian Lock. Gorgeous, commanding, and radiating charm, he is exactly the sort of silver-tongued rake Sophia has sworn to avoid. Unfortunately, he doesn't care much for her promises.

Der Krieg der Farben führt in ein Labyrinth, das von einer dunklen Macht erschaffen wird. Eine Macht, die ihre Augen überall in der Welt hat und sich am Leid anderer ergötzt. Dieser magische Ort unterliegt den Bedingungen einer bösen Königin und ist zu schrecklich, um in der Realität existieren zu können. Ein letzter Kampf steht den Sieben bevor. Wird die Welt danach eine andere sein?

Magical ambitions of a Ferrari, but the skill of a Go-Kart. That's me. If profanities were spells, I'd be Merlin. Instead, I'm just wasting my "French" on the ungrateful—again. Story of my life. When a spell goes sideways, there's no undo button. And apparently, you can't bribe fate with designer heels. (Ridiculous, I know.) Everyone wants to jump to my rescue, but I'm not here for that. If I'm drowning in a proverbial creek, don't offer me sympathy—throw me a damn paddle.

Being hunted was the perfect excuse for a shopping spree. Just because I was probably going to die didn't mean I couldn't go down in style. My grandmother called it idiotic. I disagreed . . . right up until I came face to face with a demon. And the bastard ate my Prada shirt. Seriously, who does that? You'd think he'd be into souls, not silk. But apparently, my spastic magic makes me a walking buffet for supernatural weirdos. Which is exactly how I ended up shackled to River.

Just when I thought things were looking up, Fate decided to kick me in the kidneys. Surviving a brush with Death should've earned me a break, but instead, I got stuck with a womanizer as my so-called protector. If River had kept his pants up, we wouldn't be in this mess. They say power corrupts, but unlimited magic? That twists a mind beyond repair—just look at my grandmother. Not even the shifters can fix this mess. Now, I have to track down an archdemon, avoid becoming a vampire's midnight snack, and dodge a vengeful scorned lover. And—just for the record—I wasn't even the one getting laid.

Tränen verschleierten ihren Blick, als sie ihm den goldenen Apfel aus der Hand nahm. Der Schein des Feuers spiegelte sich in seiner glänzenden Oberfläche. Rumpelstilzchen hatte gesagt, dass man Schneewittchen nur in ihren Träumen töten könne. Will betete, dass er recht behielt. Sie durfte nicht tot sein.

MAYA EIGENMANN, pedagoga e educadora parental, convida você a repensar tudo o que sabe sobre educar crianças, mostrando que esse processo não precisa (nem deve) ser autoritário, constrangedor e ameaçador. Na educação respeitosa, proposta pela autora, considera-se as necessidades e os sentimentos da criança, sem deixar de colocar os limites necessários na criação dela.

I'm a fox in a wolves' den. My assignment was simple: Go undercover and report back about wolf sightings in the area. Instead, I found myself in much deeper with the wolves of Crescent Valley than I'd ever imagined. Lone wolves are mixed up with dangerous humans who know our secret, and it could put all shifters at risk. Making matters worse, my feelings start to grow for my alphahole boss who has the weight of a secret on his shoulders, a delicious psycho who is obsessed with me but melts my heart, and a mysterious fighter who has something to prove.

These very lessons carried her throughout the hardships she endured later in life.

After a lifetime of wishing, I stared up into Ford’s eyes with his fingers caressing my cheek and my heart racing. The evening ended with my heart bleeding on the ballroom floor.
