Royal envoys Calarian and Benji embark on a quest in the alpine duchy of Tournel. Things go rapidly downhill when the duke plummets to his death from the tower wall. Whoops—that's going to be hard to explain. And it’s not as though they can just grab the nearest human and make him the new duke. Or can they? Enter one Lars Melker, a slightly gullible cowherd built entirely of muscles and sunshine, who happily accepts their word when they tell him he’s the duke now.Soon Calarian and Benji are knee deep in teaching Lars how to fake it until he makes it. They're also dealing with mountain trolls, a monster, a missing cow, and, most shocking of all, a growing realisation that their elves-with-benefits arrangement might be turning into something with feelings. Add in their mutual attraction to Lars, and suddenly the hills are alive with the sound of emotionally compromised collectivist anarchist elves.Also, what’s the deal with those leather shorts?
Imprisoned pickpocket Loth isn't sure why a bunch of idiots just broke into his cell claiming they’re here to rescue the lost prince of Aguillon, and he doesn’t really care. They’re looking for a redheaded prince, and he’s more than happy to play along if it means freedom. Then his cranky cellmate Grub complicates things by claiming to be the prince as well.Now they’re fleeing across the country and Loth’s stuck sharing a horse and a bedroll with Grub while imitating royalty, eating eel porridge, and dodging swamp monsters and bandits. Along the way, Loth discovers that there’s more to Grub than meets the eye. Under the dirt and bad attitude, Grub’s not completely awful. He might even be attractive. In fact, Loth has a terrible suspicion that he’s developing feelings, and he’s not sure what to do about that. He’d probably have more luck figuring it out if people would just stop trying to kill them. Still, at least they’ve got a dragon, right?
Once upon a moon, the wild wind whispered in my ear that the true queens were returning to Solaria and I made it my mission to open up their path to the throne so that they could slip right in like an oily oyster.
Now, on this most special and wonderous of days, the very day of their birth – I will prove myself to be the most loyal and dependable of their followers. Though of course, Venus is in my chart and Lady Petunia has caught sight of the bothersome barracuda once more.
Max Rigel is my most sinful of temptations, the shark in the dark who wishes to lure me to his sea cave and I don’t know if I’m Fae enough to resist him for long.
But one thing is for sure, I will make certain the Vegas get the big A.S.S. party they deserve for their birthday or I’ll die trying. Succulent squids be damned!
**The King will fall.**
While I continue my hunt for the Fae who killed my brother, I have to try to keep my heart away from the vicious boys who could be responsible for his death.
But as my investigation leads me down a dangerous road and answers seem closer than ever before, I'm whisked away to the elite school, Zodiac Academy, with the four Kings, and my heart becomes more vulnerable than ever.
There are so many secrets left to uncover, and I sense something terrible is about to come to light.
But I’m in so deep to this dangerous labyrinth, what if this road only ends in blood?
**The shadows are in my blood.**
I can feel them crawling through me, slithering under my skin and taking me hostage. But the darkness within me isn't nearly as bad as the darkness that lives around me.
The four Celestial Heirs will stop at nothing to destroy the lives of me and my sister. But they haven't figured out yet, that we're the strongest creatures they've ever known.
And when that secret comes out, we need to be ready to face them as well as any other cruel Fae who rises against us.
It’s us or them. And it damn well won’t be us.
**The stars have cursed us all.**
After the devastating events at Zodiac Academy, we have to deal with this hollow reality we're faced with.
Lionel seeks to destroy us, the Nymphs seek to destroy the entire Fae race, and between all of it, we have to try and survive each day and prove our worth in this forsaken place.
I'm afraid of everything falling apart, but it looks like it already has. Death lurks around every corner, and it wants to claim me and my sister. But together, we will overcome the darkness that seeks to defeat us.
Because we were forged in fire. And these flames will never die.
**Fate has torn us apart.**
Without my sister, the world seems darker than ever before and the shadows loom thicker, rising up to answer the call of the Shadow Princess and changing the face of Solaria for good.
Now Lionel Acrux has the strength to make a move for the throne, I’m not sure how much time we have left to stop him.
Our only hope is to find the Imperial Star before he does. We made the sacrifice the stars called for and we’re paying the price for that decision so it can’t be for nothing.
But with the stars turning against us at every move, and the last light in the world seeming to fade, I’m afraid we’re almost out of time.
Hope is a dangerous thing. It’s the key to us fighting on. But it could be what destroys us in the end.
One thing is for certain, I won’t stop until I have been reunited with my other half and together we will fight to take our crowns.
A war is coming.
The throne is calling for a new monarch. And someone must answer its call.
Across the world, two lives are united by one thing - Dragons.
In Lutesia, middle-aged farmer Graith isn't one for adventure. He'll leave that to the young and stupid. But when a dying dragon takes refuge in his barn with the rest of the kingdom hunting her, he doesn't hesitate to help her. Before she is even fully healed, Azelia reveals she desperately needs to get back to her cave to protect her clutch of eggs. But with her wings still out of commission, Graith worries about her chances of success, and decides to accompany her on the journey of a lifetime.
In Situra - a kingdom where dragons select the rulers - Nerie is chosen by Kiriga, the golden hatchling. Raised as a merchant in a middle class district, she's shocked to learn that she is the king's bastard. Thrown into a chaotic palace life unprepared, she's forced to learn how to be a princess and bond with a dragon - all the while unaware that the machinations of a foreign prince threaten to upend her world again.
Neither Graith nor Nerie are prepared for the chaos that dragons bring.
Puede que a sus dieciocho años Trinity Marrow se esté quedando ciega, pero es capaz de ver fantasmas y espíritus y comunicarse con ellos. Su extraordinario don forma parte de un secreto tan peligroso que Trinity lleva años escondiéndose en un aislado complejo fuertemente vigilado por Guardianes, gárgolas cambiaformas que protegen a la humanidad de los demonios. Si los demonios descubren la verdad sobre Trinity, la devorarán, literalmente, para aumentar sus poderes. Cuando llegan Guardianes de otro clan con la alarmante noticia de que algo está matando tanto a demonios como a Guardianes, el seguro mundo de Trinity se hace añicos. En gran parte debido a que uno de los recién llegados es la persona más irritante y fascinante que jamás haya conocido. Zayne guarda secretos que pondrán el mundo de Trinity del revés una vez más, pero se ven obligados a trabajar juntos cuando los demonios irrumpen en el recinto y el secreto de Trinity sale a la luz. Para salvar a su familia, y tal vez al mundo, Trinity tendrá que confiar en Zayne.
