Un vent de changement souffle dans la vie d’Aurélie. Son école-privée-de-filles-avec-uniforme ayant fermé, elle se voit contrainte (après avoir perdu un féroce combat de roche-papier-ciseaux contre Kat) de fréquenter une école-publique-sans-uniforme-et-remplie-de-garçons.

À l’aube de ses quinze ans, Aurélie a décidé de devenir plus mature. Pendant qu’Aurélie se prépare à écouter gazouiller les moineaux et à observer la danse nuptiale des vers de terre tout l’été (déprimant!), elle ne peut imaginer les péripéties qui l’attendent....

From the day Layani Cherise Bell was born, the world was betting against her. At the ripe age of 13, she lost her mother and father in a head-on collision with a drunk driver. With no family willing to step up and care for her, she was put into foster care. Alone and afraid, Layani befriends and later falls in love with Micah Jones, another kid forced into the system after tragedy strikes his family. Not one to cry over spilled milk, Micah passes his time away in foster care by making beats for local artists and daydreaming about becoming a super producer.

Miss Charlotte Pettifer belongs to a secret league of women skilled in the subtle arts. That is to say - although it must never be said - witchcraft. The League of Gentlewomen Witches strives to improve the world in small ways. Using magic, they tidy, correct, and manipulate according to their notions of what is proper, entirely unlike those reprobates in the Wisteria Society.

Cecilia Bassingwaite is the ideal Victorian lady. She's also a thief. Like the other members of the Wisteria Society crime sorority, she flies around England drinking tea, blackmailing friends, and acquiring treasure by interesting means. Sure, she has a dark and traumatic past and an overbearing aunt, but all things considered, it's a pleasant existence. Until the men show up.

When she hears rumors of a new drug about to overtake Chicago, reporter Orla Karlsen is desperate to defend her city and will stop at nothing to halt its distribution, including stepping into Chicago’s underworld.

Temptation is everywhere, and Locke plays with her mind by sharing her with his best friend Gage, when he’s not ravaging the fierce cage fighter himself. Lust and secrets blur her mind, making it difficult Tessa to know what she desires beyond the two men owning her body. The debt is hiding more than it appears and Tessa won’t be satisfied until she gets the truth. And the man she wants.

The Arcane Masters have every advantage: wealth, training, and public support - and they can wield a stunning amount of magic without breaking a sweat. But the Arcane Rebels share a special bond, and when our elements mingle, they’re exponentially greater than a single power alone. If only all five of us could get on board with the arrangement. Zephyr and Sterling are playing nice - for now - and Rain is in his glory. But whenever things heat up, Ember always finds pressing business elsewhere. We need our Fire Master...before anyone else pays the ultimate price.

Am I dead? I really should be since I just swallowed enough Arcanum to blow up every wannabe mage in the city. But instead, a brand new Arcane symbol is glowing on my solar plexus: the sigil of Spirit. And linking elements with my four Rebels even gets us out of my brother’s compound alive. Unfortunately, the current Arcane Masters aren’t the only threat we’re facing. With our newly heightened senses, we uncover a nasty piece of Arcane technology that’s been blighting the city’s water supply for a whole generation.

Is Kent the piece of the puzzle she's missing? Four years have passed since Kent and Emery have seen each other, and one would have thought that the distance between them would have faded their love.

The first new Darkover anthology in almost two decades, this volume focuses on the music of Darkover: stories with musical elements; the songs in the books; and the filk songs inspired by them, from "The Horsetamer's Daughter" by Leslie Fish to eight songs by Cynthia McQuillin. Original stories included are by India Edghill, Leslie Fish, Raul S. Reyes, Michael Spence, and Elisabeth Waters. There are also reprints of stories by Mercedes Lackey and Vera Nazarian.

You can’t turn on the news nowadays without getting bombarded by stories about the Rebels. They look so scary on TV - blowing things up, knocking things down, terrorizing the declining city of Corona, and making sure even the rubble doesn’t go unscathed. My father is the reigning Arcane Master of Fire. Since he’s a prominent figure in both politics and magic, it only makes sense that my family is a target. Still, I never expected to encounter a Rebel leader in person. I never imagined I’d be drawn to him, either.
