Who knew chasing immortality would be so hard? To keep her human friend from being turned by her overzealous vampire mate, Phaedra has to find an artifact that grants its owner eternity. But her former partner turned leech insists on inserting himself into the search, and he's got a surprise for her: She's his mate. There's no way this Fae warrior is tying herself to a vamp forever, but escaping him is as easy is flying on broken wings. And that's not the only shock she's in for. A leech for a mate is bad enough, but a vampire sibling… Fangs don't belong in her family, right?

When Kiera and her friends reach the hollow, they think they're finally going to get the answers they so desperately seek. How can they kill a dragon? How can they even find it? But instead of answers, they're left with riddles and even more questions. Instead of returning to civilization, instead of rallying more people to their side, the friends make a decision that sets them upon an even more dangerous quest than the one they were on before.

When a swarm of monsters crashed out of the forest, Kiera thought it would be a struggle just to stay alive. But it's not enough to survive, one must also defend.

One that could bring ruin to them all. One whose intentions are never quite what they seem. The newfound fellowship is shaken to the core, but as they are constantly reminded, time is not on their side.

When Evie and her friends take an unexpected turn, they find themselves face to face with the last person they ever imagined they'd find, the very witch who delivered the fateful prophecy all those years ago.

Danger lurks behind every corner. A journey home becomes a matter of life or death. The Dunes await but chaos is already upon, ripping the very fabric of the realm.

An unlikely proposition throws the fate of the realm out of balance, while a new set of players enters the field. The search for the stone reaches a turning point, but those wedding bells still chime in the distance.

When a crimson dragon rises from the ancient fortress, Evie and her friends think their luck is finally turning. Their enemy is strong, but not invincible. He is raising an army of darkness, but they have powerful allies to come to their aid. They are returning to their parents. Their parents will know what to do. If only things were so simple. A realm divided cannot stand, and it will take more than taking up the crown again to restore the five kingdoms. Sacrifices must be made, an impossible choice that shakes the friends to their very core.
