Five years is a long time. Friendships can be made and lost. Relationships broken. Loved ones leave us, while new life enters the world. We’ve seen it all, but one thing remains. Or should I say, six things…

With everyone she’s ever loved dead, Effie’s fate is no longer one of her choosing. Overnight, she becomes the newest initiate of the Keepers of Prophecy, a secret order that Sees what the future holds. War looms for the land of Elysia, unless Effie can prevent it by harnessing her visions and interpreting their meaning. Yet as what she Sees becomes far more dark and sinister, she finds herself no closer to deciphering it. Forced to rely on her tutor and Guardian, her inner turmoil deepens when feelings within herself—those she thought died with the man she loved—resurface.

A vengeful god has stolen everything from the queen of assassins. Her title. Her power. Her memories. Even her name. Now merely a ghost of her former self, Shadow must enter a deadly game and fight for her freedom or risk spending the rest of her life as a madman’s prisoner. But in order to win, she may be forced to lose what’s left of her true self in the process.

She’s in the wrong place at the right time...Gunshots echo, reverberating through me, allowing me to feel something...anything other than the pain that consumes me. That should be a warning to stay away, but for some reason, she comes closer. Intruding on my silence. Sharing my darkness. Close enough for me to see the look in her eyes. It’s not fear, but desire that darkens her eyes in the moonlight. She should run. Run far away from me, but she never does. She comes close enough to touch, tempting the devil inside that wants to cause devastation for the loss I’ve suffered.

I thought I knew pain. I thought I knew grief. I knew nothing. And nothing could compare to the moment Toby ripped my heart right out of my chest. Confirming all my worst fears. Shattering the very foundation my life has been built on. Deception is his weapon, and now I’m his victim. Rock bottom is a familiar place, and once again I’m trying to drag myself out of the pits of despair. But fate is an evil master, and before long I find myself with no other place to turn…but him. He might be cruel. Reckless. Dangerous. But I also know that he’ll do anything to right his wrongs.

Everything I thought I knew was a lie. Including the one I kept telling myself… that he was coming for me. The illusion that I was safe, shattered with every step as I ran. Much like Alex, this world is nothing more than wolves dressed in sheep’s clothing. Beautiful, breathtaking. Until you find yourself alone, running barefoot through the woods, second-guessing every shadow. What I need is a miracle, and thankfully one comes. Weak and broken, I find my way into my family’s waiting arms, against all odds.

I wanted to drown. I wanted the world to swallow me up whole and take me back to a time when everything was okay. A time when I hadn’t just buried the only father I've ever known. One where I’m not watching as my mother loses herself to her grief. One where the pain isn’t so insufferable. Everything in my world is a dull muted grey. I crave colour. Excitement. Recklessness. And that’s when he walks into my life. Tall, dark, handsome, and able to drag me from my own head for just a few hours of wild abandon.

I’d been burned by Theo Cirillo enough to know that I should have seen this coming. He loved to show me his merciless side, but I couldn’t stay away from the deviant even if I wanted to. A prisoner of my own making, playing a game without knowing all the rules. Until the lies he’d been telling, the secrets he’d been keeping began to unravel around us. He was only manipulating me. Using me. I was nothing more than a nut he had to crack. And he split me right open, but he’s about to get a shock, because I’m not the kind of girl to roll over and take it. I’m Emmie Ramsey.

The empire is crumbling. She didn’t believe me. Even now, she doesn’t want to. But as sirens ring out in the distance and she stares into my eyes - there is no denying it. No denying her. Or the truth. The threat is closer than we've ever imagined, and uncovering that truth is deadlier than the lies she grew up believing. We’re at our breaking point, but I’m not going down without a fight. And I’m sure as hell not going to lose her. Not after everything we’ve endured.

I found everything I didn’t know I needed. Accepted forgiveness I didn’t deserve. She fought for us. Killed for us. She was one of us. And there was no way I was letting her go…again.

Four comic dramas about boundaries that are both territorial and personal Territory is the theme that unites these four humorous plays - whether that means fighting over an allotment plot, dealing with the sudden partition of a country, guarding the privacy of a garden or battling with the...

We knew it wasn’t going to be easy. That our love could start a war. That my family might not accept the idea of us. But we never even got the chance to find out.... Because everything’s been ripped away from me. And all I’m left with is the memory of his touch and secrets that are threatening to break me from the inside out.

For years I’ve been content with meaningless one-night stands and zero promises for tomorrow. I had a good thing going, until he crashed his way into my life...and heart, and wrecked them both. Nico Cirillo.

For years, all I dreamed about is getting away. Starting over… a new life. Far, far away from where I grew up. But I always expected to be the one to save myself. I was naïve enough to think the decision about where I went, and more importantly, who with would be up to me. Turns out, I never had a say. In any of it. My future had been mapped out long ago. A future that begins at eighteen when I’m ripped away from the only home I’ve ever known and thrust into a world darker than the one I was running from.

Triona Sinclair was never meant for an ordinary life. A spark of something powerful has always lived within her—silent and still, until the moment it finally woke. A moment of fire and ruin. With her world shattered, Triona escapes into the wilds of Scotland—flanked by four allies, each loyal in their own way. But none of them challenge her quite like Finn MacGregor.

I’ve lived my entire life in the shadows.... Sheltered yet painfully aware of the haunting reality of who my family really is. I’m tired of being the good girl—of doing everything I’m told. Halloween seems like the perfect time to explore my hidden desires.

The night we met, she was just another one-night stand. We were never meant to see each other again, and my best friend certainly wasn’t supposed to go and fall in love with her best friend. Collateral damage...she’s already broken my biggest rule when we hooked up for a second, third, fourth, and maybe a few more times. She’s everywhere I turn. I can’t escape her or the things she makes me feel. Thanks to my best friend wanting to do anything to make his girl happy, she’s the newest teacher at Knight’s Ridge College.
