Jack Elliott has always known what he is and believes his life is one of destiny and fate because of one person: Grace Evans, a young woman who has haunted him since the day she was born. Everything…his education, training, sacrifices…has led to this moment, but Jack‘s skills are about to be tested beyond his wildest imagination.
The human race has been coddled, protected by an ancient species, in a multi-dimensional war that spans centuries. Under this umbrella, the people of Earth have thrived, ignorant of the threat looming just out of sight. This umbrella, this safety net, woven together from the lives of the fallen, will protect them no more.
Our story begins in the small town of North Shore. A place known for its tropical climate and year round beaches. An unlikely place to find the savior of a war that is still undiscovered.
Anthony Dimair doesn't know it, but he may be the last hope for Earth. Or, he may be the cause of its ruin. A darkness that has been buried deep inside of him for years, is slowly brewing to the surface, itching to find its way out.
Can this teenage boy and his friends uncover the secrets before it's too late? Can they solve the riddle before the entire town is consumed by the Shadow of Darkness?
The Switch sisters know they’re different. With ink black hair and cat-like eyes, they certainly draw stares in a small town like Ambrose, where everyone else is white and has lived in the same neat houses with the same grassy lawns for generations. Behind their Chinese faces, however, the girls are also witches. The sisters manage to keep their special powers under wraps—that is, until Mara falls in love with the mayor’s only son. Their wedding is the most exciting event in town history, but festivities abruptly end when someone is murdered and Mara is unjustly charged. Her three younger sisters know that she’s innocent. Each with a budding magical talent, the girls must bring their powers together in order to save their sister. Meanwhile, the real murderer is still on the loose...
An immigrant story inside a witch story, THE SWITCH SISTERS is the first novella in a young adult series that follows Mara, Morgan, Marie, and Mina as they grow up, fall in love, and learn to embrace who they are.
Meanwhile back at home, the foresters discover that their Miernan ‘guests’ have their own hidden agenda and the entire Forest is thrown into disarray as their carefully laid schemes unfold in an unexpected – and often brutal - way. As the very ground underneath them starts falling away, the peaceful villagers must take matters into their own hands.
Raf meets some new, rather mysterious friends, but then unwittingly finds himself at the center of a huge conspiracy, which has consequences that reach far beyond the city limits, and threaten not only his mission in Miern, but his life. With the fate of the dying Forest in his hands, he knows he must find a cure and get back before everything he knows and loves is destroyed.
When a shady man in gray slinks in one afternoon, Cam is thisclose to calling 911. To her relief, he hurries away, leaving behind the nauseating odor of his cologne and a curious spell he's dropped on the floor. But this spell is not your average hocus-pocus. It's ancient, odd and promises Power Supreme - something Cam could definitely use to keep up her 3.9 grade point average.
But the spell requires more than what's stocked on Mimi's shelves. And acquiring each item will take some heavy teamwork. With the help of her best friend, Reade, and Zach, the high school's resident genius/nerd, Cam can't lose...unless the Gray man returns.
Until the day a nurse from the hospital she has been living in stuns her with an offer of a home, a family and a new life. She is even given a new name: Addison Martin. But, try as she might, Addison does not fit into her new teenage, suburban world. Shadows and voices follow her each day, while disturbing dreams haunt her in her sleep. It isn't until she is attacked by an ethereally beautiful man outside her new school that the memories begin to resurface: a child, a tragic death, a forbidden love, a destiny...
Now, he's on the run with his two best friends, and a group of rebels. The mega-corp will spare no expense to silence him. With what he knows, he could set off a chain of events that will have dramatic repercussions for the entire world.
But somehow, in this chaotic mess, nascent romance struggles to grow and survive.
Will he run and hide behind the pomp and wealth of his former life, or will he boldly go forward and forge his own destiny? Will he survive? Will his friends?
Obsessed with the idea of finding her mother, Samantha agrees to go along with Jones, so long as Charley can accompany them. Trudging through the woods near her home, Jones leads them into a ring of mushrooms and thrusts a silver spoon into the ground. When the bright lights fade, Samantha finds herself in a land unlike any she has ever known, a harsh world of swordfights and sailing ships, a world without electricity or running water and filled with people who seem intent on killing her.
To find her mother and discover the reason for her abandonment, she and Charley will have to escape kidnappers, race typhoons and battle monsters. As they both soon learn, only the quick and the strong survive long on the other side of the map, in a place called Neverworld.
Then she is forced into yet another enchanted story. Or rather, the story comes to her, somehow ripped from the pages of the book and brought to life. She and her friends must fight their way through an imaginary Ireland, where danger lies around every turn, and find the mythical Sword of Danu.
It’s a race against time—because the magic is spreading. The manor is being overrun, and Megan, Rachel, Claire and Harriet must fight through what was supposed to be an imaginary world to find the sword and return things to normal.
Jordan Lake discovers an ancient bracelet in her grandmother's house and uncovers a family mystery that links her favorite actress, Audrey Hepburn, a romantic movie, and an aunt she never knew. Jordan hopes the bracelet will bring her love. Instead, it brings one nightmare after another, unleashing Hathor, the Egyptian love goddess, who decides it's fun to mess with the McKnight High School social scene.
Jordan holds the key to vanquish Hathor, but will she figure out what it is in time to save her school, one of her best friends, and get a date to the Valentine’s Day dance?
"Death?" The word slithered off the end of her tongue as if it was a filthy sock she held out with the tips of her fingernails. "They're mortals, Morg. [. . .] Once you sing a soul to the Otherworld, you'll see that keening is an important task, but not one with which we should become emotionally involved."
Bound by duty, sixteen-year-old Morgan must begin forewarning human deaths. After all, that's her job as a newly-appointed Ban Sidhe (banshee), a death caller. Conflicted when the Inner Ring--the elite group of ruling Sidhe--assigns a fifteen-year-old boy, Aidan Tanner, as her first death to keen on her road to adulthood, Morgan must make a critical decision. Will she help end such a young life or follow her instincts and refuse to make the call? And if that isn't difficult enough, Morgan's help is needed as the Sidhe and human worlds are about to face a crisis foretold in the Thousand-Year Sidhe Prophecy. With the lingering pain of her mother's absence and the mystery of her father's recent disappearance, the young Ban Sidhe feels lost. Aided only by her overly-critical twin sisters and an eccentric seer, Morgan must confront her weaknesses and make the hardest decision of her life. Alone.

It all started on one completely normal afternoon when Claire invited her friend Penny to come over to her house.
They chatted on Facebook for a while until Claire went out of the room for a few minutes. The moment she stepped out of the door Penny went straight back to the computer which was still open on Claire’s Facebook page, and without blinking an eye lid started writing really insulting comments in Claire’s name on the wall of Claire’s best friend…

It happened in the middle of a math class.
The teacher asked a question which I knew the answer to...it was as clear as day so I decided to pluck up the courage to raise my hand.
Up to this day I’m not sure who was more excited, me for having raised my hand, or my teacher who was seeing me ready to answer a question (and open my mouth to talk) for the first time since I’d landed in her class…
“Yes, what’s the answer?” asked the teacher…
I’m sure you know the feeling of those moments when everything goes blank, a “black out” when your answer suddenly gets stuck somewhere and you’re sure that you don’t know anything and you can’t remember anything…
That’s exactly what happened to me. At that moment, when I realized that I was going to speak, I went silent; I forgot what I wanted to say.

It happened on one of the first hot days at the very beginning of the summer.
A few of us decided to ditch school – simply to walk out of the building and spend the rest of the morning by the sea!
Right from the start my body started sending me signals that this wasn’t OK…my stomach hurt me, and I ignored it, I got a thumping headache which I also ignored.
Sarah forged our teacher’s signature with incredible skill and handed us the signed notes which were our pass out of school.
We went to the gatekeeper holding our notes then, suddenly, he made a comment, one tiny remark which made us all change colors, from bright red to white and we were struck dumb…
