When Bruno rides up on a Harley, all muscled and tattooed, it isn’t just the bike that purrs. I’m drawn to the wolf shifter in a way that can’t be denied. But when he can’t take his eyes off me, it’s not for the reason I’d hoped. He knows more about me than I do. My past isn't what I thought it was. My enemies are much more powerful than I’d ever imagined. My destiny alone remains the same. I’ll do whatever it takes to secure the future of werewolves.

My whole life is one tangled lie. A horrible deception. All my past choices steered by the woman who hunts me without pause. She’s powerful, vicious, and cruel, feared by the entire supernatural community. She’s also an immortal. Yeah, she can’t be killed—supposedly. Nothing like an insurmountable challenge, right?

Traitor’s Den was meant to be a prison. A punishment. A hellhole my daddy could never escape. Over the decades, however, hundreds of us have found a way to make it our home. We’ve learned to deal with the many bumps along the way with colorful cussing and a dash of humor—often roused by one too many at the saloon—and we’ve embraced the spell that turns us all into honky-tonk cowgirls and -boys.

In nineteenth century Norland, magic is forbidden, punishable by death. But it's coming for Clara. Clara was born to the nobility at a time when rank and power are often more valuable than the bonds of family. Her parents have plans for her, none that she wants, all involving her arranged marriage. From her birth, her entire life has been planned out-only what a future wife in society needs to know. Every step of her path is meant to end with her walking down an aisle and then popping out heirs.

The Magical Creatures Academy has sent its finest fairies to recruit her. As a hybrid shape-shifter - half siren, half angel - Selene of the Kunu Clan is one of a kind. It’s a label that makes her the target of a rebel faction of supernatural creatures that seeks to claim her power. But her power is undeveloped and more a danger to herself than an aid. Yet her magic is her only advantage over the vicious vampires and fierce shifters who seek to eliminate her.

Marla survived another mad caper, one she solved by the skin of her teeth. Her ankle might never be the same after all that creature humping, and there are some Haveners she’ll never be able to look at the same, but at least no one’s in love with her who doesn’t want to be. She only has the one boyfriend now, and Quade Contonn is more than enough wizard for her. In fact, he’s the perfect fit. After decades apart, reuniting with her first love couldn’t be going better.

The immortal Count and the dark Merqueen haven't managed to claim Clara or her powers—yet. Even with their personal magic bound, they're hunting Clara with more force than she knows how to handle. They contain the magic of the hundreds of souls they've drained. Clara has her own power, one they haven't been able to touch, a secret binding element that gives life to all magic. She's stronger than ever, with a love great enough to dismantle the Count and Merqueen's devastating illusions. But when you love as fiercely as Clara, you have too much to lose.

Since Selene was flung onto land, she’s been on the run. And legs aren’t her thing. As knowledge of Selene’s unique powers spread throughout the supernatural community, her enemies have grown. Power-hungry vamps, witches, and shifters hunt her relentlessly. To claim the power of the angels, they’ll stop at nothing.

The Magical Creatures Academy is the most secure location for Selene to defend herself from those who seek to claim her power. As usual with Selene, nothing is as expected. When the fearsome witch, Naomi Nettles, breaks through the academy’s fortifications, she delivers Selene to someone far worse, someone Selene had hoped never to cross paths with again. But on her quest to find Quinn, Selene will endure whatever she must. She’s the only sirangel in existence. She’s about to make the most of that fact to reunite with the man she loves.

When the two most feared magicians of the underworld band to hunt Clara, she needs to be able to count on her friends. But that's difficult to do when she's surrounded by masters of illusion, who can bend reality as easily as they bend truth. The immortal Count and the dark Merqueen don't play by anyone's rules but their own. And when they turn to forbidden magic, Clara must decide what she's willing to sacrifice to survive.

Clara barely survived the dark force that attacked Irele Castle. One of her teachers didn't. But the number of dark magicians hunting her and her friends has only increased. She still doesn't understand the extent of her powers, and her foes are cutting off every opportunity for her to discover it. As if the immortal count weren't terrifying enough, now Clara's former fiance and a magician she believed dead have combined their efforts to kill her. And it gets worse. The Merqueen's already stolen three years of Clara's life. But she wants more, and she's as powerful as the count.

The immortal Count Washur has been waiting for Clara to grow more powerful to collect her soul. Now he's after her. Washur Castle comes alive with dark magic while it carries out the Count's attack. Clara knows it's a trap, but she goes anyway because he has something—someone—she can't bear to lose. Clara and her friends are strong, and their magic is stronger. But with their forces divided, can they overcome monsters and deadly illusions?

The hunted has become the hunter. Anira is part of the Dragon Force, whose purpose is to protect the dragons, sacred to her people. The chieftain of her tribe intends to drain the power of the dragons and keep it for himself. Now he’s allied with shadow people, who ride the dragons - a feat none in the force has managed to achieve. Stopping the chieftain before he succeeds in destroying them all is more urgent than ever. He’s only getting stronger.

The chieftain is plotting to steal the dragons' magic. Anira won't let that happen. All her life, Anira has hidden from her people. She can no longer remain in the shadows. It's the responsibility of her tribe to protect the dragons. The chieftain is up to his usual tricks. She'll have to enlist the help of the very soldiers tasked with killing her to stop him.

Jas und ihre Gefährten sind endlich wieder an der Schule für magische Wesen. Die Schule ist nicht mehr das, was sie einmal war. Sowohl die Schüler, als auch die Lehrer, und selbst die Eule Sir Lancelot bereiten sich auf eine finale Schlacht mit den Magierrebellen vor. Jas ist diesesmal eines klar. Sie wird nicht wieder weglaufen. Sie wird kämpfen.

Jas ist es nicht fremd, Ärger zu haben. Normalerweise macht sie sich zum Spaß auf die Suche danach. Aber jetzt nicht mehr. Nicht jetzt, da ihr verfluchter Anhänger sie an den letzten Ort gebracht hat, an den sie jemals gehen wollte. An den einen Ort, an den sie definitiv nicht gehört. Sie wünscht sich nichts sehnlicher, als zur Akademie für magische Kreaturen zurückzukehren, um ein wenig Zeit mit dem heißen Wandler zu verbringen, der endlich ihr gehört. Aber zuerst muss sie einen Weg aus dieser alternativen Dimension finden.

Jasmine Jolly will alles, aber nicht bei ihrem Namen genannt werden. Sie ist eine mächtige Wandlerin, aber sie verwandelt sich nicht in ein cooles gefährliches Wesen, sondern in ein Stinktier. Was würde sie dafür geben sich stattdessen ebenfalls in einen Löwen oder einen Wolf zu verwandeln. Allerdings entwickelt Jasmine in diesem Semester ganz eigene Fähigkeiten. Sie scheint plötzlich über eine neue Form der Magie zu verfügen, die ihre Wünsche wahr werden lässt. Doch leider scheint Jasmine sich oft Dinge zu wünsche, die sie sich besser nicht gewünscht hätte.

Neue Regel: Wenn du eine glänzende, hübsche Halskette findest, zieh sie nicht an. Jas weiß schon lange, dass es magische Gegenstände gibt. Sie hätte nur nie gedacht, dass der Anhänger, den ihr Sommerflirt zurückgelassen hat, einer sein würde. Jetzt muss Jas herausfinden, wie sie ihren Anhänger beherrschen kann ... bevor er sie beherrscht.
