“Make them listen and make them see, even if you have to scream until your lungs give out, even if you have to fight until your hands are bloody.” Eric and James MacNamara were adopted into The Colectiv, a vampire-hunting organization of heartless violence. They were driven by a blind need to make the world a better place, but when they found their lives were a lie, everything came crashing down. In response, Eric forsook The Colectiv, and now the inseparable twins are wrenched apart, one in a cell and one on the run with Emilia—a wanted vampire he sacrificed everything for. Commander Michael Iovaneau has sent a pack of hunters after Eric in retaliation, while he stays in Romania to siphon valuable information from James. Through rigorous interrogations, James puzzles out a means of escape, mulls over his identity, and forms an unlikely friendship with a fellow cellmate. All must face the consequences of their actions and make decisions for the sake of love and survival. But Michael’s not the only one searching for Eric. Wade MacNamara, his biological father, is also hoping to reunite after a 20-year underwater imprisonment. Eric’s vengeful mission to kill Dante is no more, yet that wrath finds itself locked on an entirely new target: Michael himself. Will Eric’s fury consume him, or will love be enough to save him from the edge again?

In this campy love letter to the slasher films of the 1980s, seven friends reunite for a weekend of fun—only to be hunted down by a cold-blooded killer. But the real horror is not being able to escape who you were in high school... The sleepy town of Cedar Lake Falls is best known as the shooting location of the campy ’80s horror flick Slasher. In high school, preppy Patrick, jock Jason, cheerleader Tiffany, stoner Freddy, goth Jennifer, and nerdy Michael had played the cast of Slasher during midnight showings, with virginal Carrie as the Final Girl, of course.Years later, the friends reunite at the remote cabin where Slasher was filmed. They've changed since high school—Patrick came out, Mikey bulked up, and, well, Freddy's still stoned—and they're looking forward to a weekend to catch up. But when night falls, and the eponymous masked killer is spotted, the reunion takes a deadly turn. The friends discover their tires deflated and the phone line disconnected, and soon they’re being stalked by a mysterious assailant. Is someone trying to make their Slasher experience as authentic as possible?One thing is for sure. Before the night is over, they each will have to take on the role they thought they'd left behind.

EMILY WILDE meets DIVINE RIVALS in this light romantic fantasy epistolary novel about a grumpy apothecarist, the whirlwind woman who comes to save his shop, and the letters that secretly unite them. You've Got Mail with a magical twist! Josie Pinova doesn’t believe in fate—until fate seems to believe in her. The day after she’s fired, she wanders into the last magical apothecary in Tressport and lands an unexpected job. It’s not ideal, but it buys her time—and a paycheck—while she waits to hear if she's been accepted into the city’s prestigious Institute of Magic. Aufidius Reid doesn’t believe in luck—and Josie feels like the worst kind. Opinionated, charming, and infuriatingly outsmarting him at every turn, she makes him feel like he’s constantly a step behind. To her, he’s uptight and impossible. Neither suspects they’re already falling for each other—through a months-long exchange of anonymous letters as fellow Institute hopefuls. In the shop, they clash. On the page, they fall in love. But with the apothecary slated to close in six months—another casualty of Tressport’s rapid industrialization and rising anti-magic sentiment—they’ll have to fight for more than just their livelihoods. Josie is determined to prove that women like her belong in the world of structured spellwork. Reid is just as set on mastering his unruly magic and outrunning the past that’s held him back. Saving the shop might be their only shot—at meaningful magic, at true purpose, and at each other. Set against the smog-choked skyline of Tressport inside a lush, green sanctuary of plants and old magics, this is a story of mistaken identity, reluctant partnership, and the quiet magic of being truly seen—on and off the page.
