Clara is an Obligate—an indentured servant of the fae. Serving out a fifteen-year sentence for a crime she doesn’t remember committing, she spends her days working in the king’s glorious library. Her only hope is to keep her head down, attract no attention, and survive to the end of her Obligation. Only then can she get home to her beloved brother. But when the conniving Prince of the Doomed City arrives at court, all Clara’s hopes are dashed. He is determined to buy her Obligation for his own dark purpose. And he doesn’t care who gets in his way. The only problem? He hates her. More than anyone else in all the worlds. But his hatred…

For five years, Clara has wanted only one thing—to survive her fifteen-year sentence of servitude to the fae and get home to her beloved brother. That hope is fading now, thanks to the Prince of the Doomed City—the man who hates her for the crime she committed which cost him what he held most dear. As punishment, he’s dragged her away to his terrible library where she must battle Noswraiths, the monstrous spirits possessing the grimoires. If she wants to see home again, Clara can’t afford any . . . distractions. Like Danny, her handsome childhood sweetheart, who longs to set her free. Or Ivor, the devastatingly beautiful fae lord, who…

Confused by her own budding feelings, she resolves to concentrate on the job at hand: serve in the Doomed City library, survive her sentence, and get home.

But each new bargain tangles her in a web of intrigue far more dangerous than she ever imagined. For there are other players in this game, other bargains being made. Worse still, she finds herself becoming irresistibly drawn to the enigmatic Prince, who has come to mean more to her than she dares…

Clara’s memories of the last few years are lost in a haze. The more she tries to remember, the harder it is. And perhaps that’s just as well. Perhaps it’s better for her to focus on the present . . . and the future: a beautiful future with Danny Gale as her husband and her place in good society restored, comfortable and content. With her wedding less than twenty-four hours away, Clara seeks to reunite with her brother, eager to repair their relationship. But she finds Oscar in a manic state. He raves about other worlds, about magic and curses and people Clara knows nothing about. She fears he’s lost his mind entirely . . . but something…

A Clever Thief. A Disfigured Mage. A Kiss of Poison. Nelle longs for nothing more than to leave behind her thieving ways and pursue a life of honest work. But when her father lands himself neck-deep in debt, she must take on a dangerous job if she hopes to save his life . . . a job that brings her to the shores of Roseward Isle. For fifteen years, Soran Silveri has fought to suppress the nightmarish monster stalking Roseward.

A new light shines into the darkness of his heart . . . After fifteen years of imprisonment and solitude, Soran Silveri's life is rudely interrupted by the arrival of one brash, headstrong, flame-haired girl. He cannot refuse her appeals for sanctuary—but he can resist her pleas for him to teach her magic. If the suspicions he harbors about her prove true, tapping into her magic potential could spell disaster. Nelle has survived the first hurdle of her mission on Roseward Isle: She convinced the disgraced mage to let her stay.

Can love blossom among the thorns? Refocused and determined, Nelle plans to snatch the spellbook and escape Roseward Isle once and for all. But when a powerful magic storm blows in—bringing with it a small castaway of mysterious origins—Nelle and Soran are obliged to lie low inside the lighthouse until it passes. Trapped in close quarters, they cannot hide from their deepening attraction. But fate is against them. Soran knows the nightmare he created will not remain bound much longer. He must convince Nelle to leave him, to escape Roseward before she becomes the Thorn Maiden’s newest victim. And Nelle sees the moment fast approaching…

Холлис годами училась управлять духом внутри нее. Один неверный шаг, и дух захватит ее тело и прогонит ее душу... но пока она сохраняет контроль, Холлис управляет потрясающей магией на службе своей Богине.

Фендрель — ее напарник и товарищ в войне против ведьм. Они вместе участвуют в миссии по доставке важного пленника с территории врага. Когда случается катастрофа, и миссия оказывается под угрозой, им приходится полагаться друг на друга ради выживания в опасных горах.

Но опасность и сближает их, и тайные чувства Холлис к Фендрелю становится сложнее игнорировать. Она знает Закон. Она знает, что любовь между членами Ордена карается смертью.

Она…

Айлет и ее тень — одно целое, всегда хотят охотиться. Но из-за контроля ее наставницы она боится, что ее воспоминания были украдены. Теперь ей девятнадцать, она долго училась в загадочном Святом Ордене, и она хочет повышения, прогонять духов во имя Золотого принца из пророчества.

Когда угроза нависает над короной, Айлет использует шанс доказать свое достоинство. Желая завоевать доверие принца и сбежать от хитрой наставницы, она решает вступить в состязание с Террином, красивым и наглым противником, который не уступает ей по силе и может занять место, которое она хочет.

Они прибывают к Великому барьеру по пути, сталкиваются с легендарным злом,…

Айлет и Террин выжили в Ведьмином лесу, но они не приблизились к разгадке дела с мертвым охотником. В их походе за ответами они обнаружили, что ведьма сбежала из-за Великого барьера и оставила след из трупов.

Ведьма — лишь одна из проблем Айлет. Террин, раздражающий и интригующий соперник, готов отдать все, чтобы победить в их соревновании. И Кефан, старший на их заставе, скрывает не одну опасную тайну.

Хуже то, что в пути за ответами Айлет сталкивается с трехлетней девочкой, одержимой уникальной и сильной тенью.

Айлет вдруг начинает сомневаться в учениях ее Святого ордена. Всегда ли верно убивать людей, одержимых тенями? Даже детей?

Прошел месяц состязания с венатором Террином, и Айлет все еще не завоевала доверие Золотого Принца. Иначе почему он вызвал Террина на тайную миссию в замок, оставив Айлет справляться в районе одну?

Не важно. Она докажет свое достоинство принцу. Много загадок обнаружилось на земле под ее защитой... включая тайну самого Террина и странного опасного талисмана, который он прятал в своей комнате.

Ее поиск ответов вскоре приводит Айлет к пути опасного врага. Призрак из прошлого принца вернулся, чтобы омрачить настоящее. Айлет в меньшинстве и не готова к борьбе с таким врагом в одиночку.

Но когда она отступала от боя?

Приходя в себя после столкновения с Фантомной ведьмой, Айлет оказывается гостьей Золотого принца, и ей приходится наслаждаться его гостеприимством... и неприятным поведением венатора Фендреля ду Глейва.

Что-то не так с Фендрелем. То, как он смотрит на нее, пугает — словно она монстр, словно виновна в ужасном грехе. Но разве она не одолела одного из худших врагов Перриньона? Разве не доказала свою верность?

А еще Террин, который может ей врать, который может не быть верным венатором, каким все его считают. Он тоже странно на нее смотрит... но от его взгляда ее сердце то замирает, то колотится так, как еще никогда не бывало.

Приближается ночь…
