She's forced to ask the most frightening question of all: Is love enough? When Isadora requests three months to decide whether to stay handfasted, Max immediately agrees. He adores Isadora, but saying the words isn't easy. His admittance would require something he's not ready to give. If he doesn't tell her that he loves her, will Isadora stay?

Isadora has harbored a secret dream for years: she longs to work for the education office. Finally, her wish has manifested. Sort of.

When they're forced to work together to save the forest and mountain dragons from starvation, Sanna has her own lessons to learn about what she really wants.

Anytime now would be great, in fact. From midwives to crib placement, she's ready to go. Until life sends a twist her way she didn't expect. Meanwhile, Sanna is blissfully happy taking care of a new baby dragon.

Live in the Network. With her mentor Gilbert at her side, what could go wrong? Her sister, Isadora Sinclair, is determined to find a job. How hard could it be? Seamstress, baker, librarian. There has to be something in the Central Network she can do.

When his aunt Serafina dies, he must come face-to-face with the truth—and the family—he's been avoiding for years. Meanwhile in Letum Wood, the sisterwitches are struggling. After Mam's death years before, tension has driven them apart. Only hard work, sacrifice, and vulnerable determination can pull them back together. Unfortunately, Sanna's worst nightmare comes to pass. Poachers from the Southern Network have taken Luteis.

Anna Buchanan is a freshman college student with one plan: travel abroad. Except . . . college life isn’t what it’s cracked up to be. Her new roommate definitely has a quirky side. All those romantic comedies she watched growing up? Not happening. Money is harder to come by than she thought, and her first kiss is less-than-foot-popping. Not to mention the fact that there aren’t enough hours in her day to sell blood plasma, work at the deli, and volunteer at her dream internship.

When Mark helps me escape into his mountain world for a while, the very last thing I expect is to fall hard. Now ghosts from my past are following and I’m not sure there’s a happy-ever-after waiting at the end of this nightmare.

Bianca Monroe should be celebrating—she’s just handfasted the love of her life, Merrick. But fate has other plans. A summons from High Priestess Alina pulls Bianca to the Southern Network, where magicless witches are vanishing without a trace.

When an unexpected letter threatens High Priestess Scarlett, the responsibility to keep their leader safe falls to Bianca. A shocking predator, the fight for legitimacy, and the struggle for Bianca's own safety conspire to hold the fate of the Sisterhood from becoming a reality.

This coffee shop is going to kill me. Sure, it's my dad's dream. If he hadn't died eight months ago, I wouldn't be here, a college drop out, trying not to drown in debt. Nor would I be staring into the muddy eyes of a viking-sized man that's telling me everything I'm doing wrong—as if he knows so much about business in a small mountain town. Except he does. And when the biggest, most unexpected surprise of all falls in my lap, I'll have no choice but to ask for his help. Time for some power lipstick.

Astrid would give anything to be one of the Ulfsark—fearless warriors who ride giant Amarok wolves. Like her ancestors, she yearns for the soul-deep bond with a wolf. The connection. The union.

Then an encounter with a nature spirit and a foreign princess dashes her last hope and changes everything.

Astrid and the Skolvarg people are outnumbered and outmatched. Their enemy, Uzell, hunts the Greater Spirits, and as the Skolvarg gods vanish, so does their power. With no other choice, Astrid and her companions must journey across Vigard in search of allies before it’s too late.
