Wolves And Roses


Christina Bauer - 2017
    She’s descended from one of the three magical races—shifters, fairies, or witches. That makes her one of the Magicorum, and Magicorum always follow a fairy tale life template. In Bryar’s case, that template should be Sleeping Beauty.Should being the key word.Trouble is, Bryar is nowhere near the sleeping beauty life template. Not even close. She doesn’t like birds or woodland creatures. She can’t sing. And she certainly can’t stand Prince Philpot, the so-called “His Highness of Hedge Funds” that her aunties want her to marry. Even worse, Bryar’s having recurring dreams of a bad boy hottie and is obsessed with finding papyri from ancient Egypt. What’s up with that? “Exciting and well-conceived” – KirkusAll Bryar wants is to attend a regular high school with normal humans and forget all about shifters, fairies, witches, and the curse that Colonel Mallory the Magnificent placed on her. And she might be able to do just that--if only she can just keep her head down until her eighteenth birthday when the spell that’s ruined her life goes buh-bye.But that plan gets turned upside down when Bryar Rose meets Knox, the bad boy who’s literally from her dreams. Knox is a powerful werewolf, and his presence in her life changes everything, and not just because he makes her knees turn into Jell-O. If Bryar can’t figure out who—or what—she really is, it might cost both her and Knox their lives… as well as jeopardize the very nature of magic itself."A fun romp for Twilight fans."- School Library Journal Fairy Tales of the Magicorum Series A series of modern fairy tales with sass, action and romance 1.

Outcast: Books 1 - 6


Emilia Hartley - 2019
    Happy endings, no cheating & absolutely zero cliffhangers! By the time you reach the end you'll be begging for more! This is one boxed set you do NOT want to miss! Book 1: Archer Vancourt doesn’t believe in anything anymore—not Pack, not family, and certainly not love. He’s not even sure why he listens to a plea to return and help the Pack that threw him out. At home, he finds everything in shambles, his father dying, and the woman he once rejected under the thumb of a monster. Joanna doesn’t deserve this. She was never the reason he left, and now, seeing her full beauty and strength, Archer starts to believe she’s the one for him after all. He has to fix things for her—if she’ll let him. Book 2: Gage Vancourt is tired of not belonging. When the Pack kicked him out, he had his brothers, but Cohen left, and now Archer has a new mate. There’s nothing for him at home. Gage is considering returning to Illinois when he finds a newly-changed shifter. Kaylee is stuck in her coyote-shape. Gage takes her home, feeds her, and coaches her through her next few shifts. But just as Gage is starting to feel he belongs, the shifter who changed Kaylee comes around to claim her. Gage will do anything to make her safe, but will it be enough? Book 3: Cohen's animal is cursed. A darkness lingers in his eyes - the telltale signs that a monster lurks within. He moved away from his pack to protect them. To protect his brothers, and more importantly, to protect Ashe. But now he’s back, facing down forces even uglier than himself. He must protect Ashe and the others from those forces. But can he also protect them from himself? Book 4: A Virginia mountain town. That’s where the roads have taken him. Although Stonefall is safe now, Jax’s failures still haunt him. He can’t see a place for himself among the Vancourts. No pack needs a shifter who can’t protect his Alpha. So, he hits the road, looking to outrun his ghosts, and bumps smack dab into Sydney, a local cop investigating crimes that are inhuman in more ways than one. He’s afraid he’ll fail her, too, and add another ghost to the ones haunting him. But he can’t leave her to fend for herself. Book 5: Rhylan isn't used to this life. The heightened senses and problems that come with them are almost too much. He has a million questions that need to be answered, but his brand-new Pack-mates are too caught up in each other to answer them. Then he meets her. Another shifter. A sexy maid at the hotel where he’s staying. His wolf thinks Thalia is the answer to all their questions, and he’s beginning to think the beast is right. If only she weren’t too distracted by her own mission to help him. Book 6: Javier is a giant wolf-shifter, big as a smart-car, strong as the mountains he loves, and sensitive enough to protect everyone he cares about, especially his little sister, Thalia. Or at least that’s who he was until an enchantress ripped out his soul and tinkered with it, trying to turn him into a tool for her own evil purposes. Though no longer physically the woman’s captive, Javier is a shell of his former self, so numb to the world that he’s only vaguely aware of what he’s missing. He’s at least aware enough to distrust the woman fate has tied him to—Nora, the enchantress’s daughter.
