Frost's Bite

Summer's life was suddenly uprooted with her dad's announcement that they were moving. Senior year in high school was not her ideal time to move. She'd spent all her life with the same kids, she had friends, she was comfortable and settled. She had even recently gotten her dream boyfriend and they were going to prom. Her dad's job was transferring him across the country to a snowy wasteland on the edge of civilization. The pay was apparently much better, but what's the point if she has to start all over? She didn't understand why her dad was so set on making them move. Summer was determined to hate her new home and everything about it, until she met Caspian Frost. Frost was the most beautiful man she'd ever seen. He was larger than life, he intimidated her, he was probably way out of her league, but there was a strange chemistry between them that she couldn't resist. At thirty-two, Caspian Frost was about to become the alpha of his Winter Clan and shortly afterward have his mate marking ceremony. He was a respected wolf shifter, a successful CEO, had a shifter that he was intending to mark, and this year his clan was hosting the Tetrad Ball and Scavenger Hunt. He didn't have time for a budding romance, especially not with some eighteen year old little wolf shifter who hadn't even had her first shift yet and certainly not one from the rival Summer Clan. Every shifter had three fated mate choices, but they usually didn't meet all of them in their lifetime, they would feel a connection to all three, but the strength of the pull was not the same. He'd heard stories about the pull between first fated mates, but he couldn't have imagined it'd be this powerful. He'd always assumed that he'd end up with his childhood friend Maura who was his third chance mate choice and the shifter he'd intended to mark during the ceremony. Not only did he meet his first chance mate, he was also her first chance mate. Although Summer's wolf hadn't appeared yet, he could sense her presence calling to him. Unfortunately, Summer wasn't even aware of her wolf's existence yet, or at least that's what everyone expected to show up. Although Frost was determined to avoid Summer, he couldn't stay away. Especially not when the Tetrad Ball approached, more of the rival clan members arrived, and mysterious deaths started occurring. It took all of Frost's determination to not bite Summer and claim her immediately when he saw her second and third chance mates sniffing around. He wanted to put his mark on her so badly he could barely think, but he wanted her to consciously choose him too. The trick would be to keep her safe and mark free until he managed to claim her for himself.

ETERNAL THIEF: THE UNREMARKABLE MISS SEVENTH

Pain spread throughout her body, the excruciating agony tearing through her like a thunderclap, pulling Aurora Starling from the depths of darkness. With great effort, she pried open her sore, heavy eyelids. As weak light filtered in, a cacophony of harsh voices filled her ears. "She has no one to blame but herself for her lack of skill. It's sheer luck that she was rescued this time; next time, she might not be so fortunate." "A good-for-nothing should know their place. Knowing full well she's trash, yet still courting death — she's brought nothing but shame to our family." The voices of a man and a woman echoed in Aurora's ears. Who the hell are these two bastards to call her a waste? When did such insufferable fools pop up in the organization? This was a world vastly different from modern society, a blend of ancient Eastern and Western cultures, filled with mysterious martial energy and wondrous magic. Even dragons, creatures that only existed in stories, were real in this extraordinary world. As a master thief from the 24th century, Aurora Starling could hardly believe that she, who should have been dead, had somehow been reborn into the body of this young girl. What was even more laughable to Aurora was that this girl shared her name — Aurora Starling. She now found herself on a land known as the "Luminous Continent," within a kingdom called the "Dragon Pavilion Empire." The body she inhabited belonged to the seventh young lady of one of the five great families of the Dragon Pavilion Empire — the Bennu Family. By rights, this should have been an adored and pampered existence, yet as the two brats had pointed out, the body's owner was indeed a genuine waste. The favorite pastime of this family, besides honing their martial energy and magic, was tormenting her, the so-called "waste." "Hisss." The sudden movement tugged at the wound on her waist, and Aurora ground her teeth, examining the injuries on her new body, a cold smile playing on her lips. Useless? Idiot? Those words had never applied to her. The wheels turned, carrying the passengers towards the unknown territory. As they distanced themselves from the borders of the Dragon Empire, step by step drawing nearer to the fabled forbidden land, they entered the shadow of the dark clouds. A legend of their own was silently unfolding. None of them could have imagined that this venture would lead them to witness the founding of the "City of Demons." Nor could they foresee that they would behold the birth of the "Demon Lord," whose actions would shake the entire continent and rewrite countless histories. This was only the beginning...

Rising Tide: Dark Innocence

Isolated and sheltered by her lonely mother, Maura's never been able to make friends. She seems to drive her classmates away—except for the odd times they pay enough attention to torture her—but she doesn’t understand why. Maura considers herself to be a freak of nature, with her unusually pale skin and an aversion to the sun that renders her violently nauseous. Her belief is only worsened by the fact that almost everyone around her keeps their distance. Even her own father deserted her before she was born, leaving Maura alone with her emotionally distant mother, Caelyn. Even though Maura is desperate for answers about her unknown parent, Caelyn remains heartbroken and her daughter can’t bring herself to reopen her mother’s wounds. Or is there a more sinister reason Caelyn refuses to utter a word about her long-lost love? When a cruel prank nearly claims Maura’s life, one of her classmates, Ron, rushes to her rescue. Darkly handsome & mysteriously accepting, Ron doesn’t seem to want to stay away, but Maura is reluctant to get too close, since her mother has announced she’s moving the two of them to Vancouver…nearly 3,000 miles away from their hometown of Indiana, Pennsylvania. If life wasn’t already challenging enough, Maura begins to experience bizarre, physical changes her mother seems hell bent on ignoring, compelling Maura to fear for her own life. Vicious nightmares, blood cravings, failing health and the heart-shattering loss of Ron—as well as the discovery of a tangled web of her own mother's lies—become obstacles in Maura's desperate quest for the unfathomable truth she was never prepared to uncover.
