Six months ago, my husband tried to kill me. Now, my sons and I are living in an old Victorian house passed down to me by my uncle. The house may be big, but the town is small. It's safe, which is something I haven't felt in a very long time. And best of all, it's very far away from my ex.

Two nights. One disappearing girl. Zero memories… and a rockstar who never moved on. When Lily walks back into Lucifer Sarris’s life with no memory of the weekend that inspired his greatest album, he swears he won’t lose her again. But fame has teeth. Secrets have claws. And loving your muse may be the most dangerous risk of all. A devastating, addictive, slow-burn rockstar romance. You won’t come up for air.

This is a kisses only, sweet romance. I’ve dreamed of what it would be like to have my best friend fall for me a million times. Not once did that story include a burst pipe and a flooded bathroom. I refuse to fall in love with Zander Mercier again. He abandoned me. Ten years ago, I ran from my small town with my tail between my legs, completely humiliated and alone. Now, I’m back in Briar Glen to claim my inheritance, my aunt’s bed and breakfast. The B&B needs some renovation, which means I need a contractor. I asked my partner to do one thing: NOT hire Zander.

Every year, a lottery is held for the hard-working people of Lutum. The prize? Eternal life. And everyone wants it. Well, everyone except for 17-year-old Silverstasia Blackwood. She doesn't think it's fair that the rich get to live luxurious lives while the people of Lutum are enslaved, forced to work hard every day to support the immortals.

After losing her home and her family, Silverstasia Blackwood finds herself in the middle of nowhere, led only by a stranger and a promise of a new life. But it isn’t long before threats begin lurking nearby.

Myla’s only ever known the stratified life inside the dome. As the secret child of a forbidden Decemite relationship, she has abilities like no one else, abilities she’s had to keep hidden her entire life. But when her Decemite sister goes missing on a mission, Myla’s search to bring her home will uncover the truth about the Outside and the secrets the leader of Echelon has been keeping. No normal human is supposed to be able to survive outside the dome, but rebel Outsiders prove that wrong.

As a volunteer firefighter, people are usually happy to see me. My sister’s best friend didn’t get that memo. Bright-eyed Maya Glenn is not the awkward girl I remember. My high school crush is now a beautiful woman, glowering at me like I’m public enemy number one.

After being rescued by a mysterious man, Silver and the people of Ortus are brought into an underground bunker. But who is this mysterious man, and can he be trusted? As tensions build beneath the surface, threats overhead are far from over. The Elites still want Silver, and they'll do just about anything to get her. If Silver wants to stay alive, she'll have to find a way to join forces with strangers she knows nothing about. The only problem is that some of these strangers have plans of their own—plans that include Silver.

Racing down the winding streets of Imperia, my only hope of reclaiming my throne is to escape. Unfortunately, that means returning to the one place I truly fear—Berovia. My fears—it seems—were justified. In the dark underbelly of Berovia, I am captured by King Xenos' men and thrown into the pits with traitors and criminals to pray for salvation I knew wouldn't come. My only hope to make it out alive is by agreeing to marry the king's arrogant son. But this union comes at a terrible price. If I agree to be his bride, my people may forced into submission under Kiros' reign.

All her life, Myla was told Echelon was the only place humans could survive. A journey outside the domed city proved that was a lie. Now all the other lies told by Lady Lazrad, the leader of Echelon, are unravelling, leading Myla down a path to open rebellion.

After another vicious attack against Silver and her people, Silver vows to bring Olympus to its knees. In order to win the war against her greatest enemy, Silver will need to make alliances with people she doesn’t trust. But without them, she won’t succeed. Can these new allies be trusted long enough for Olympus to fall? Or are they just as dangerous as the Elites?

My name is Chloe Carmichael. I’m 16 and a half. I live in the bustling metropolis of New York City. Life is grand, most of the time…at least when others are watching. I touch my pretend boyfriend, Zack (that’s a whole other story), and bam, I’m on the football field at school.

Welcome to Echelon, a domed city that protects the survivors of a ravaged Earth. Here, the wealthy elite live in Sky, high above the poor dwellers of Dirt. And Dirt children known as Decimites are injected with nanobots, allowing them to survive in a world ravaged by toxins. Forced to gather resources from Outside, their enhancements grant them a chance for a better life.

Coaching hockey brings me home, but seeing Becca—my best friend's little sister—hits harder than any slapshot. Her sharp wit and hazel eyes drag me right back to my first love. Now widowed with three protective sons, she's even more off-limits. But the fire in her gaze and playful quips dare me to chase what we've always buried. Her boys watch me closely, yet every moment with her awakens something I thought was long gone.

Eighteen-year-old Adele believes she’s a monster because of her ability to infiltrate minds. She has come to terms with the fact that she may be alone for the rest of her life in order to avoid hurting others. For years, she’s been kept captive at Castle Forge, living comfortably under the watchful eye of a tyrant general. But after secretly witnessing her aunt heal someone with her blood, Adele knows the only way to get answers is to escape. Even if that means leaving behind the one person who’d shown her compassion during her captivity.

Myla always believed that Echelon was paradise. A safe haven from the toxic, mutant-infested wasteland outside. But when she flees the domed city to rescue her sister, Ona, Myla discovers it was all a lie. There are humans living outside. Rebels like Ben, a boy who shows her a freedom she never thought possible….

After an unexpected attack, Silver and her people stand face-to-face with a dangerous enemy. Will they come out alive? Even if they survive this, nothing will ever be the same again. Silver’s home is gone, and the Elites are still hunting her down. To make matters worse, someone else is hunting her, too. Whether she can stay alive will depend on how far she’s willing to go, and what kind of allies she’s willing to make.

My neighbor’s easy on the eyes, but his blaring music and clanging weights keep me awake. Michael Matthews is all charm and good vibes—qualities that drive my sleep-deprived self up a wall; even if his smile does spark an annoying flutter.

When I decided to join the Army, I never in a million years believed it would cost me the girl I loved. Penelope Miller was my best friend and the love of my life. It was love at first ponytail tug. Yet joining the Army changed everything. A decade later, I’m home, and Penny is starting the life we dreamed of…with another man. At least she was until I found her hanging from a cliff on her wedding day. Still in love with me, she left her fiancé at the altar. I’m no longer the man who left Willow Falls and joined the military.
