"Perfect for Halloween, a teenage girl juggles school, love, and exorcism in this smart and funny rom com for fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Veronica Mars.
Shelby Black has a secret.
For the past six months, her uncle Roy has been training her to be an exorcist. But high school is hard enough without having to explain that you fight demons for a living, so Shelby keeps her extracurricular activity to herself. The last thing she wants is for her crush, Spencer, to find out what she does in her off time.
And Shelby knows how to keep a secret―even a big one. Like the fact that her mom left under mysterious circumstances and it's all her fault. Shelby is hellbent on finding her mom, no matter what it―even if what it ends up costing her is her soul AND her relationship with Spencer."
"Multicast narration, read by award-winning narrators Emily Lawrence, Katie Koster, and Annalee Scott.
"Tara Laskowski gives readers their very own slasher movie! With one diabolical twist after another, The Cold Read will keep you guessing until the very last page."
-Alma Katsu, author of Fiend
They're there to make a sequel. But someone came for revenge.
A decade ago, the release of the horror film No One Can Hear You Scream catapulted a young no-name cast into Hollywood fame. But below the surface, they were dealing with the fallout of their friend's tragic death on set.
Now the cast is reuniting at the remote ski resort where the movie was filmed to announce the sequel and get a first glimpse of the screenplay. Cassidy, Jake, Ben, and Ruby-they've all followed different paths over the years, and each has their own reason for agreeing to return to a place they had sworn to leave behind.
At first everyone works hard to ignore the shadows of the past and focus on the opportunity ahead. But the reunion takes a dark turn during the midnight announcement to fans when a disturbing incident stirs up a long-buried secret.
Each of them has something to lose. Each of them has something to hide. And if they want to survive the weekend, they'll have to deliver the performance of a lifetime…

"After a betrayal to rival all others by the one she loves, Soren is left with only one person who can drag her from death's clutches: her unexpected soul tied, Niklas Bergström. Niklas bears too many secrets to count, but one, him being the cursed son of Odin, could finally be put to use. After hundreds of years of carefully avoiding each other, Niklas must confront his father and King of Ásegard, swimming the depths of The Well of All Knowing and making a perilous deal he cannot refuse to bring his Soul Tie back to him.
But accepting this bargain could bring even more darkness into the nine worlds no one expected. Soren, Niklas, Callum, Vana, Alexi, and the others will join forces, traveling through the realms to unravel the puzzle of how to save the nine worlds—and end Royal Seer Synnove and her Dreygur King's reign for good.
Battling darkness, love, lost friendships, and grief will push the allies to their breaking points.
Is devotion enough to keep them together? Or will the darkness pull them under?"
"Soren Kissinger has always been perfectly fine being human in a very non-human-centric world. By default, she has had a picture-perfect life in the Human Realm of Midengart. But on her twenty-third birthday, Soren's life as she knows it begins to unravel. Soren's truth comes forth, and she realizes her entire life has been a lie. Soren was no human but a halfling. A prophecy outlines her fate and a dark one at that. The prophecy revealed three children who would change the world forever. A dark queen and her army have been hiding between the worlds, waiting for Soren to rise from her binding charm. Soren is the dark queen's last key to taking control of the nine worlds, and the queen will not go down without a fight. Soren must face her fears, hone her newfound powers, and, unfortunately, be trained and guarded by the notorious and insufferable storm-wielding Rhone Hitori.
Rhone is loyal to no court—a Royal High Fae castaway who likes to hide in the shadows. So, it surprised the realms when he agreed to this implausible task. Soren and Rhone reluctantly work together and collect allies along the way.
Every player is needed to fight the inescapable war dawning upon them, especially since Soren isn't the only new creature bestowed upon the worlds."

"What is inevitable?
Emmeline DeLeoste has always talked to the stars. As a member of a fortune-telling warrior clan, her exceptional magic allows her to read the Fates, earning her a prestigious Academy job. But it has also cost her everyone she loves.
Roremar Silventa has more responsibilities than any man should. Combined with his Reckless reputation haunting his every step, it's left him burdened in more ways than one.
When women start disappearing from the drug-infested Isle of Lyra, Emmeline and Roremar are tasked with finding the culprit due to their unique skillsets. In return, each is offered the one thing they can't refuse. There's only one problem: the pair couldn't be more different.
Amid mounting threats from the Fates, and with a murderer creeping closer, Emmeline and Roremar strike up an alliance only to realize that, despite their differences, or perhaps because of them, they may understand each other in a way no one else can.
Can they unveil fated pasts and catch a killer before they lose their lives–or their hearts?
Everyone on Lyra has a secret, and some things may be inevitable after all."
