I was twelve the first time I killed a man.
After the war, I was driven to the human world by a vengeful leader. My only chance at survival? Run.
With the help of a genderfluid shifter, I learned to hide in plain sight and harness the powers within, but my luck soon ran out.
This time, she captured my sister and sent an assassin after me. Running is no longer an option.
If I want to live, I have to fight.
But how do you defeat the same power that turned your clan to ash?
You build an army and start a rebellion.

A vampire. A murder. A prophecy.

I’m Emily Sanderson. I used to be an ordinary girl. Now I’m a vampire, living at Mistwood Academy, a school for supernatural teenagers. It’s not how I pictured my life turning out, but I’ve made friends, and I’m doing okay in my classes. I know I’ll figure things out.

But then I’m attacked and everything changes. There are whispered voices. Threats. And dark magic. Something sinister is going on at Mistwood … something that results in murder.

Now I’m caught up in an ancient prophecy. A prophecy I need to stop before it’s too late.

A secret. A weapon. A spell.

I’m Emily Sanderson, and I’m not an ordinary vampire. My life’s been turned upside down more times than I can handle, and all I want is to figure out my newest powers and to keep studying at Mistwood Academy, the school that’s become my home.

Actually, no. All I really want is to give those powers back.

But when Haven Montgomery, my best friend and a powerful witch, offers me a solution, I know things are going to get complicated. Because something about her has changed since the night of the Sapphire Eclipse. I don’t know how to help her, and I don’t know who to trust.

Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned about life at Mistwood, it’s that nothing’s as easy as it seems.

Two enthralling paranormal/urban fantasies. Can an elemental who lost her abilities, and finds herself trapped in a body that’s not her own, restore her power and find a place in the world? Can the world’s first werewolf turned psychiatrist for the magically deranged handle the mayhem of the Vilokan Asylum?

With enough warning of the coming apocalypse, Quinn builds an ark in the desert – a self-sufficient domed city he calls Altor.
