Threads That Bind (Threads That Bind, #1)
Kika Hatzopoulou
In a world where the children of the gods inherit their powers, a descendant of the Greek Fates must solve a series of impossible murders to save her sisters, her soulmate, and her city. Descendants of the Fates are always born in threes: one to weave, one to draw, and one to cut the threads that connect people to the things they love and to life itself. The Ora sisters are no exception. Io, the youngest, uses her Fate-born abilities as a private investigator in the half-sunken city of Alante. But her latest job leads her to a horrific discovery: somebody is abducting women, maiming their life-threads, and setting the resulting wraiths loose in the city to kill. To find the culprit, she must work alongside Edei Rhuna, the right hand of the infamous Mob Queenâand the boy with whom she shares a rare fate-thread linking them as soul mates before theyâve even met. But the investigation turns personal when Io's estranged oldest sister turns up on the arm of her best suspect. Amid unveiled secrets from her past and her growing feelings for Edei, Io must follow clues through the cityâs darkest corners and unearth a conspiracy that involves some of the cityâs most powerful playersâbefore destruction comes to her own doorstep.

But between their flirty banter, mixed signals, and brewing rivalry, Austin is thrown further off his game by Diego. With the eyes of the world on Austin, the weight of history on his shoulders, and Diego across the net â he must decide if love means nothing or if love means everything as he battles for the trophy during an electric two weeks at the US Open.

Blood Moon (Blood Moon, #1)
Britney S. Lewis
Eighteen-year-old Mirabella âMiraâ Owens grew up in Timber Plains, Kansas hearing all about the local legendâthat werewolves had, many years ago, traveled to their small Midwest town to protect humans from the growing threat of a vampire enclave. Just a story of course, a fairy tale, one Mira had stopped believing in when she was youngâjust like she stopped believing in the idea of her mom returning, after she up and left without a trace when she was only thirteen. Mira is grown up now, starting freshman year at the nearby Lakeland University. College feels normal, exactly the thing sheâs been craving most... except for one particular classmate: Julian Santos, a mysterious boy with long hair, golden eyes, and a coldness that seems directed exclusively at Mira for reasons she canât understand and he wonât explain. When Mira receives an unaddressed letter from her mother, sheâs told the world isnât as it seems. She suspects her mom might be telling the truth when she stumbles across strange animal tracks on a hiking trail, and when sheâs miraculously saved from a twenty foot drop by the one and only, Julian Santos. The problem? Julian would have had to jump the length of the cliff to catch her, making him incredibly fast and strong beyond belief. When she confronts him about this, he denies everything. But when a Blood Moon rises, Mira soon finds herself caught in the middle of an ancient, magical war, with Julian on the other side of the line. She discovers thereâs much more truth to the old town legends than she could ever have anticipatedâand her familyâs historic role in it will change her world forever. BLOOD MOON is a dark and thrilling, intensely romantic ride, a fresh take on a werewolf love story for a new generation of paranormal romance readers, and is the first book in a series. It is set against a high-stakes paranormal backdropâa world ripe with secret identities, rich supernatural lore, and a forbidden romance... that comes with a deadly bite.
