Some women rise from their ashes, Aria tends to be the one making the ashes nowadays. Aria’s world is unraveling into utterly, beautiful chaos. Will she become the savior the Nine Realms need, or will she become the monster they’ve made? Are you brave enough to enter the Nine Realms? There’s a queen rising, and in chaos, she’ll reign.

Known as a harbinger of bad omens and blamed for Demons eating her family, Reia is shunned by her entire village. When the next offering is due and the monstrous Duskwalker is seen heading their way, her village offers her an impossible choice—be thrown into the prison cells or allow herself to be sacrificed to a faceless monster.

In a school where the elite rule and wealth hides dirty secrets, a monster stalks the halls daring the brave to play in the dark. An innocent will be drawn out, their secrets exposed. Hidden desires will be brought to light in a game of sin and madness.

I’m Everly Abbott, and I work for one of the most dangerous vampires in the world. He’s known as Alexius, the Hunter and he’s also one of the oldest. We’ve been invited to a gathering of ancients like him, and we can’t pass on this opportunity. We’re hoping to gather information, anything that might draw us closer to the group behind Jacob’s murder, the events in Alaska, and the threatening email I received. However, we’re not the only ones attending with our own agenda.

All I wanted was a date to accompany me to dinner with my parents. A decoy to distract my mother from her ongoing mission to find me a husband. What started out as another awkward dinner ended with us being run off the road. Turns out my pretend boyfriend isn't who I thought he was. He isn’t even the man I was supposed to hire. And he has secrets that might just save us from the nightmare unfolding around me.

My throat is always on fire. My mouth is always dry. The only thing that helps? Human blood. As much as vampires need it, it is also our curse. Blood can drive us mad if we’re not careful. That madness breeds a wickedness as the need for blood reigns supreme. We revel in it, desiring the power and vitality it gives us. When we drain someone, we get high; it’s a rush that some vampires love to chase once they cross that line. Vampires will do anything to get it and there’s nothing that will stop them from killing hundreds.

I was human, just like my parents. And when I turned eighteen, I decided to work for the vampires after college, too. We had worked for their nest for over five generations, and I wanted to continue that tradition. But then, the master of the nest died. The new master of the nest is not so kind or good at the job. We need help. I need help. The new master is letting the vampires get out of control. I’m Everly Abbott, and I need a solution to this before more people get killed. But, the solution might be more dangerous than the problem.

Sersha is voiceless and overlooked in society, but that hasn't stopped her and her beloved phoenix, Kazmerev, from taking on any and every challenge in their quest to keep the ai'sletta safe, bring down the Hand of the Rats and the Stryxex, and keep phoenixes everywhere safe.

Deep in enemy territory, betrayed by those who should be friends, and under attack by enemies, Sersha, her phoenix Kazmerev, and the enigmatic Judicus must seize all their courage to fight for the future of phoenixes everywhere and maybe even mankind.

Disabled and rejected in her community, Sersha has never had a best friend. Until one day, a phoenix enters her world, tied to her heart in a way no one can break. Now, this great fiery beast has adopted her as his best friend and he wants to take her away from the world she’s known until now. But Sersha’s village is in trouble, and unless she can learn to work with her phoenix friend right now, they might both lose the future they were counting on.

Ten years ago, I fell in love. The pop princess and the rock star. On paper, we should never have worked. In public, she was a sweet girl-next-door bubble-gum pop singer. But when we were together, her passion matched mine. I was ready to make her mine forever, and then she told me it was over.

She thought she could just leave her trouble behind. She was wrong. Sersha is relieved to be able to leave Landsfall. Her people aren't safe as long as she stays, and her future lies with Kazmerev now. But when her cousin, Mally, makes a series of headstrong decisions, it plunges Sersha and her friends into trouble they can't easily escape. Getting free will push her ethics, her abilities, and her newfound friendship with her beloved phoenix. Will she have what it takes to keep her people safe?

With their enemies arrayed before them more dangerous and powerful than ever, Sersha and Kazmerev find themselves forced to ally with those who might not have their same goals at heart - and might actually want their destruction. But, in a world of kings and subterfuge, secret war and coup attempts, they are determined to do what they set out to do - save the ai'sletta and defend phoenixes everywhere.

Frustrated at every turn, Sersha and Judicus are determined not to give up - especially not now that they hold a vital clue to the intentions of their enemies. But when someone new appears in their path - someone who claims to have a reason to stay near Sersha - neither of them are sure if they should trust him. Worse, Kazmerev doesn't agree. Can Sersha and Kazmerev survive their first fight and decide together on who to trust?

The flame of courage is burning. It's Sersha and Kazmerev against the world in this wild third episode of Phoenix Heart. With her cousin stolen and her friend Judicus once again in trouble, everyone needs Sersha to save the day. But not all is as it seems - there are villains lurking in every hill and hollow - and Sersha must use all her skills to fight against impossible odds. Her bond with Kazmerev is growing, and together, they are seeing the world in new ways, but will it be enough?
