The moment I realised I had to go back to Earth, I panicked. It wasn't a little bit of panic. It was the kind that sucked the air and light from the room and made my body go cold with sweat and fear. I knew that if I did this, if I went back, then I had a shot of saving everyone - Earthers, Aunare, everyone - but it could cost me everything. It was still an insane, stupid, deadly idea, but Lorne agrees this is the right plan. Going to Earth will hurt him. He'll want to see where I lived, how I survived, and seeing, knowing, understanding my past better will only hurt him. And yet, I don't have a better plan. There will be no hiding there. Not anymore. Everyone on Earth knows my face. My name has become the rallying cry of the revolution. Returning to Earth is risky, but nothing in life is without risk. I'm not afraid anymore. All I feel is determination to win. I won't stop until SpaceTech has been destroyed

In a matter of weeks, she'll marry Lorne and become their High Queen, but no matter how hard she tries, she finds that she's always doing the wrong thing. At least that's what the High Council keeps telling her... There's only so much rejection a girl can take, which means she's spending her days trying to get out of High Council meetings. She's going back to what she does best: teaching and training. Preparing to invade Earth is a much better use of her time. But when SpaceTech tries to attack her again, it sets off a chain of events no one can stop. After weeks of refusing Lorne's request for a meeting, the Aunare's allies invite them to a neutral system, but nothing can stop this war now. Amihanna's done pretending to be a politician and can only be wohj she is. A fighter. A leader. A warrior.

She has seconds to make a choice, but there's only one thing Tessa can do to save the two most important men in her life--sacrifice herself.

Dastien does everything he can to save Axel before calling his friends in a panic but when Dastien's finally reunited with her, there's no sign of recognition in her eyes. No magic in her touch. No wolf beneath the surface. Everything that made Tessa who she was...has been erased"--Page 4 of cover.
Broken, beaten-down, and plagued by nightmares, Amihanna di Aetes is surrounded by the Aunare race that makes up the other half of her heritage, but she feels alien amongst them. She's not sure which is worse: SpaceTech's overt hatred of Aunare or the Aunare's covert hatred of halfers. She hears their whispers whenever she enters a room and sees her death reflected in their eyes. Amihanna doesn't know who to trust anymore, but she hasn't survived this long by ignoring the warning signs all around her, especially when her instincts are screaming that a familiar choice is coming: flee or fight. Her parents assure her everything is okay--that there won't be any reason for her to fight, let alone flee--but with Amihanna's sudden return, questions arise among the Aunare: who should be blamed for the start of a full-scale war with SpaceTech, how much danger will the war bring, and is Amihanna truly fit to be the next high queen? Honestly, Amihanna wants to forget all the politics, her betrothal to Lorne, and the possibility of being queen. Her needs are much more basic. All she wants is a solid night's sleep where she doesn't wake up screaming with the phantom pain of her skin burning. All she needs is to live without fear of a mob tearing her away from her family. All she hopes for is a chance to dream of a future instead of constantly fighting for her right to live. And yet, somehow, everything she does leads her back to Lorne. He always seems to know when she's about to break under the pressures of her new life. His quiet patience is wearing Amihanna's protective walls down, and she's terrified of what will happen if they fall

Now the coven has splintered into two factions: Luciana’s army of witches wielding dark magic, and Claudia’s few stragglers who fight with the wolves. War is coming, and it won’t be much of a battle if Claudia can’t find the spells to counteract Luciana’s demonic power. But Luciana strikes before they’re prepared, and Claudia’s twin brother pays the price. Suddenly, going to Peru in search of ancient Incan magic doesn’t seem so crazy. Fighting evil will require a pure spirit, but her quest is full of temptations, including a handsome Peruvian guide with secrets of his own. Finding love is the last thing on Claudia’s ever-growing to-do list, but sometimes what you need has a way of seeking you out.
"Fun. Funny. Lighthearted and sweet. Chris always manages to find beauty and laughter, even when fighting a chapel full of demons. He's exactly what she needs. Except he's a werewolf and she's a member of the Lunar Court -- the only fey court that holds sway over the werewolves. Even on his best day, Chris isn't strong enough to last a few hours in the Lunar Court without becoming a slave. No matter how much Cosette's heart wants him, she knows she has to let him go.

So, when Eli -- a mysterious archon -- requests his help, he figures why not? The guy might be a little shady, but he needs every distraction he can get. But when Eli says that Cosette's in trouble, Chris is more than ready to play by Eli's rules. At least until Eli takes him to the Court of Gales. Chris knows he's about to play a very dangerous game. Bargaining with the fey is something only a desperate person would do. But what wouldn't Chris give up to save Cosette's life?

It seems like the perfect time for a honeymoon. Tessa and Dastien’s trip to the Caribbean is turning out to be the honeymoon that fantasies are made of—sunset cruises, long walks on the beach, and every romantic cliché you can imagine. She couldn’t be happier. So, when a local man turns up inexplicably dead on the beach, Tessa brushes it off. Not every bad thing that happens in the world is a supernatural mystery to be solved. And when Sebastian—one of the Council of Seven Alphas who rule all the werewolves—appears on the island, she thinks it must be a coincidence. Everyone needs a break now and then. Even council members. Right? Besides, Tessa is beyond determined to not let anything get in the way of her romantic vacation. But when Dastien goes missing, the honeymoon is most definitely over. Tessa can’t ignore the signs anymore. Something huge is going on. And whoever messed with Tessa’s mate is in for a rude awakening. Because if there’s one thing fighting rogue witches and werewolves has taught her, it’s how to be Alpha.
