Marked by Fate
Tegan Maher - 2019
When I was sixteen, an angel supercharged my powers, told me I was destined for great things, then disappeared into the ether. What was I supposed to do with that? Don't get me wrong - being able to control the elements, move things with my mind, and conjure fire from midair is cool, but none of that will help me pass my midterms. On the upside, they WILL help me save humanity on a regular basis from various forms of evil I didn't even know existed. Lileth, a Fae who leads a super-secret society called the Celestial Witches Academy, has given me a choice - live a secret life and lie to my friends, family, and amazing boyfriend in order to fulfill my magical destiny, or let humanity suffer so I can ace bio tests and go to frat parties. I don't have to love it, but I do have to do it. Look out baddies, I'm Shelby Flynn, and I'm here to take some names!

Wolves
C. Gockel - 2012
Galaxies away Loki is waking up in a prison cell, strangely without a hangover, and with no idea what he’s done wrong — this time anyway. But he does know Thor is hiding something, Odin is up to something wicked, and there seems to be something he’s forgotten...In this tale that is equal parts “Another Fine Myth,” “American Gods,” and “Once Upon a Time,” a very nice midwestern girl and a jaded, still very mischievous Loki must join forces to outwit gods, elves, magic sniffing cats, and nosy neighbors. If Loki can remember exactly what he’s forgotten and Amy can convince him not to be too distracted by Earthly gadgets, her boobs, or three day benders, they just might pull it off...This first volume of "I Bring the Fire" is for anyone who suspects chaos and mischief makers might have their own redeeming qualities, and anyone who just wants a good fantasy romp through modern Earth, ancient Asgard, and beyond!
