Born into a sorcerer bloodline, cursed, and cut off from my power, I was accustomed to being an outcast. For generations, my bloodline carried the weight of a crime committed by our ancestor. But my mother’s death changed everything. She left a clue that could prove our innocence: an ancient text hidden deep beneath Nightsbridge Academy.The Academy is a fortress of power, housing the most dangerous incantors and sorcerers, conscripted to keep Horrors and Echoes at bay. And as the last surviving Onyx, I’m owed admission.My plan is simple—find the book and expose the Imperium as the liars they are.But I didn’t plan for the whispers that haunt my dreams. Or the complication of feelings I shouldn’t be capable of—stirred by two men bound to the very institution I’ve come to destroy. One sees too much yet says too little. The other is steady, protective, and always in my corner.I can’t have either.Yet when I’m in their presence…my curse begins to crack.If they discover my true purpose, I’m dead.But some truths are worth dying for.The Imperium cursed my bloodline. Stripped us of our magic. Branded us as traitors. And now they will pay.

The only thing that kept me going was Romi: my half-brother, my protector, my family.Until the day he died.They call it an accident. I know it’s a lie. And the only way to uncover the truth is to enter Romi’s world: Stonehaven Academy, the training ground of the elite guardians.Here, survival is a test I was never meant to pass. Pureblood gargoyles want me broken. The Council wants me silent. And then there’s Serath - the dangerously magnetic sigma leader of Romi’s unit, the one man I should never want.If I want answers, I’ll need to get close to the sigma. I’ll need to play with fire and be prepared to get burned.But there’s a reason Serath is off limits.A reason that could mean the difference between life and death.Because the Stone Council is hiding something far darker than Romi’s death.And if their secret gets out, it won’t just shatter Stonehaven.It will tear our world apart.

The secrets of Stonehaven won’t stay buried for long.I’ve barely had time to wrap my head around the revelations doled out by my gargoyle sire when a knock at my dorm door brings a blast from the not-so-distant past back into my life.I thought I’d left Levi behind.I was wrong.He’s here for me, and things are about to get complicated.But convincing Levi that I’ve moved on without revealing that Serath is my fated mate isn’t the only challenge I’m facing.With the elite trials mere weeks away, I need to make sure that I’m physically and mentally prepared, and that involves training directly with Serath - the object of my forbidden desire.Focusing won’t be easy, but I’ll need to find a way, because failure is not an option.Failure, means death.Cam's adventure continues in The Stone Secret.

Special edition features only available for a limited time and while supplies last.** Gods aren’t born, they’re made. I should have died the same night that a monster murdered my grandmother, but I was saved, stolen from my world, and thrown into a realm ravaged by an endless war between ancient gods called Asura. I’m told that I’m a demigod, that there are others like me, brought to this world to replenish their dwindling numbers. They want us to prove we’re worthy of ascension and fight alongside them. I don’t give a damn about their war. All I want is vengeance on the monster that killed my only family. A monster from their world. And if the only way to kill it is to become a god, then I’m all in. But the path of ascension is paved with dangerous tests, culminating in a lethal trial called the labyrinth of gods. Only an ancient fire elemental has the power to help me survive it. His wicked mouth sets my pulse racing, and his dark threats turn my blood to ice. Charismatic and terrifying, he attracts and repels me in equal measure, and I have no doubt he’d snap my neck in a heartbeat if freed from the magical bonds that compel him to aid me. He hopes to be my undoing, and if I’m not careful I may not make it to the labyrinth alive. To claim the vengeance that I desire, I’ll need to protect my body and shield my mind, but most of all, I’ll need to guard my heart. Enter an Otherworldly realm filled with gods, monsters, and mystical beings. Opposites attract and love and conflict collide, in this forced proximity romance.

Araz, my drohi, my reluctant anchor, will be going with me. Bodyguard, protector, companion and…maybe even a friend? But nothing more, because once I ascend our deal will be done, and I’ll be forced to set him free. I can’t risk giving him my heart, no matter how much I ache to hand it to him.

With a fragment of my stolen power restored, I should feel whole…alive. Instead, my magic has evolved into something dangerous and entirely unwanted. But the truth is impossible to ignore. I am no ordinary sorcerer. I am a Veil Walker. If I want to get my hands on the Libra Veritas, I can’t afford any distractions–especially not the spirit world clawing at me. That’s easier said than done when I’m fast-tracked into advanced classes, dragged onto active hunt duty, and placed under the supervision of the last man I could ever trust–Sterling Damascus. Horrors are evolving. Students are disappearing. And revenge has a flavor I can almost taste. Between brutal hunts and a tincture designed to reveal a monster’s truest self, I’m learning that power always comes with consequences. So does desire. So does loyalty. At Nightsbridge, love can get you killed, magic never forgets, and surviving is only the beginning. Class is back in session–and this time, the dark is hunting back.
