Od pięciu stuleci trolle nie mogą opuszczać miasta pod ruinami Samotnej Góry. Więzi je klątwa czarownicy. Przez wieki wspomnienia o ich mrocznej i złowrogiej magii zatarły się w ludzkiej pamięci.

Niespodziewanie pojawia się przepowiednia o związku, który złamie potężne zaklęcie. W Cécile de Troyes rozpoznano kobietę z przepowiedni. Zostaje więc porwana i uwięziona pod górą. Od pierwszej chwili w podziemnym mieście dziewczyna myśli tylko o jednym – o ucieczce. Trolle, które ją uprowadziły, są jednak inteligentne, szybkie i nieludzko silne. Porwana musi czekać na właściwy moment i stosowną okazję.

Z biegiem czasu dzieje się coś niezwykłego – w sercu Cécile kiełkuje uczucie do tajemniczego księcia, z którym została związana ślubem. Dziewczyna poznaje kolejne osoby, nawiązuje przyjaźnie i powoli uzmysławia sobie, że może być jedyną nadzieją dla mieszańców zniewolonych przez trolle czystej krwi. W mieście wybucha bunt. A Tristan, jej książę i przyszły król, jest jego tajnym przywódcą.

W miarę zanurzania się w świat skomplikowanych intryg politycznych podziemnego świata Cécile przestaje być córką prostego rolnika, staje się księżniczką, nadzieją całego ludu i czarownicą obdarzoną mocą dość potężną, by na zawsze zmienić Trollus, podziemne miasto.

Za dnia zaś niestrudzenie szuka Anushki, czarownicy, która przez pięć stuleci umykała trollom. A niezależnie od tego, czy zwycięży, czy poniesie porażkę, jej bliscy zapłacą wysoką cenę.

Aby odnaleźć Anushkę, dziewczyna musi zagłębić się w magię, która jest mroczna i zabójcza. Czarownica jest jednak przebiegła, a Cécile może się okazać nie tylko łowczynią, ale i zwierzyną.

The Tiger's Curse takes many forms ...

Anastasia and Verusha Stepanov are the tsar's only children, heirs to the prosperous and sprawling Kievian Empire. Headstrong and fierce, the twins have long scorned their father's opulent palace and the diplomatic obligations that come with it, preferring to train with the Royal Guard and dream of a soldier's life beyond the palace walls.

But with their father lost in the recent war and their once indomitable mother succumbing to illness, the young women know that one of them must soon ascend the throne, make a politically advantageous marriage, and begin producing heirs. Yet, the succession is far from clear as both would prefer the path of the second born: head the Royal Guard, travel the far reaches of the empire, and seek out a destiny of her own making.

As their beloved mother's condition worsens, the sisters grow more desperate, seeking any healer who might give her more time. But when a stranger arrives offering another option, the sisters refuse his proposal and banish the strange man. As he departs, the stranger unleashes a devastating curse that sends Veru and Stacia fleeing their home on an adventure beyond anything they ever imagined ...

It turns out the last of the dragon rider fae have been locked in a trap, a mansion with no doors, no way to leave for five hundred years, and I’m the first fae to enter. The dragon fae riders know nothing of the world outside or the vampyres who have taken over in their absence, and most don’t trust me.

Especially not Ziven—king of the forgotten Moon Dynasty.

The gorgeous but cruel king demands I enter the Decidere, a ritual for all fae over the age of twenty. It’s a deadly trial in the dragons’ caves below the mansion, and if you’re weak, you’re dead. Ziven marks me as a traitor, and he doesn’t believe anything I say. He wants me to lose. The Sun Dynasty king takes me in, helps me and is kind. With his help, I might last a week.

With Ziven doing everything he can to end me, my ability to escape the mansion seeming impossible, and dragons literally burning the ground at my feet, I don’t know how I’m going to live through this.

You need to be brave. You need to be a warrior…or the dragons will know.

My name is Story Dehana, and I escaped the vampyres, only to find myself trapped once again with a new enemy who might be worse.

War has come to the Enchanted Vale. Not only am I mates to three of the four High Princes, but I’m also the daughter of the lost Queen. This is my home, and I have to protect it.

For months, I’ve been imprisoned in an underwater cell, and my mates are scattered across the realms, searching for me. The diabolic Kairyn and Nightingale have taken over the Summer Realm and there’s only one way to stop them. The true High Prince of Summer will have to reclaim his throne, and to do that, he’s going to need his full strength.
Which means being with his fated mate … who isn’t me. I always knew the day would come when I’d have to give Dayton up, but now that it’s here, my heart is breaking. At least we have one last adventure together, as we must fight in the Sun Colosseum to reclaim the magical bow that only I can wield.
All the while, my mates battle for the Vale’s freedom from across the realms. Keldarion and my father venture deep into the Below to search for my mother, the lost queen. Ezryn takes a hazardous journey with two young princesses into the unforgiving desert. And Farron must team up with the person he hates most in the world—the Prince of Thorns, Caspian—to confront a dark god who wants to claim the Vale for his own.
I know my Princes are counting on me to be strong. No matter what the Summer Realm throws at us—be it pirates, sirens, or gladiators—I’ll fight for Dayton’s home. And even though I know I shouldn’t … I’ll fight for his heart, too.
