I thought if I played by the rules, I’d be spared from the cruelty of the vampires. Boy, was I wrong. My plant magic was supposed to keep me safe, but when a fertility plant that I created for a rich vamp is stolen, my neck is on the line. Not only do I lose my cushy position with my master vampire, but I’m also thrown into prison.

In a world ruled by vamps, being half fae and magicless sucks. You know what’s even worse? Being sold into slavery by your own mother. I am Onyx Logan, and my mother condemned me when she sent me to Nocturnal Academy. If I get lucky, the academy will mold me into a servant for rich vampires. If I’m not, I’ll become a courtesan.

I’ve made it out of Nocturnal Academy. No longer do I exist to please the vamps. Now, as a member of the Winter Court, my job is to execute them. Yet my new standing as an assassin is not much better than being a courtesan. The rules of the game have changed, but I’m still a pawn. Worse, Thorsten, a handsome jerk of a vampire who has messed with my mind and feelings one too many times, is back.

A sadistic vamp lord. A rebellious fae. A vicious hunt. The first term of Nocturnal Academy is over. Majors have been assigned. I’ve made choices that brought me closer to the guillotine. But the fight isn’t over, not yet. I must get through the spring term. Not an easy feat when the vamp students are planning a sacrifice and have a bone to pick with me. But even if I survive the prison academy, someone will be buying my contract after school is out, and rumor has it that the king of sadists is interested in me. Whatever he wants, he gets.

So far I have two possible fates: Die in my dorm or end up as a vampire’s slave. There is no escape out of Nocturnal Academy's prison school. Being here means I’ve lost my mother, my best friend, and my freedom - and it gets worse...Now Nocturnal Academy plans to make me into a courtesan for the vampires. Unless I get a win the chance to become the one out of 100 fae who gets to shape her own fate. Topping the Placement Tests are my only hope.

I thought if I played by the rules, I’d be spared from the cruelty of the vampires. Boy, was I wrong. My plant magic was supposed to keep me safe, but when a fertility plant that I created for a rich vamp is stolen, my neck is on the line. Not only do I lose my cushy position with my master vampire, but I’m also thrown into prison. A prison where in addition to slave labor, my self-esteem is decimated every single day.

Destruction is upon us. The faelands are going dark. Soon, they’ll become uninhabitable. Only if the Summer and Winter Court unite can the apocalypse be prevented. With the Queen of the Winter Court trapped in the wastelands, and the King of the Summer Court becoming unstable, it’s up to me to steal the Summer Court crown and deliver it to the wastelands so that we can heal the faelands. My path won’t be easy. Death whispers in my ear, ready to claim me should I make one wrong step. But to keep my people safe, I’ll do whatever it takes! Join me on my lethal adventure!

Torn between two courts, I must find my own path. The king of the Summer Court wants war. He has taken hostage the consort of the Winter Court Queen, who’s preparing to invade our lands. I can’t blame my former friend for her anger, but I also can’t stand by and watch her destroy innocent Summer Court fae. Using every ounce of magic and ingenuity I have, I must find a way to free her consort and return him safely without King Peter discovering my betrayal. Yet every step I make only gets me deeper and deeper in danger.

My vampire master rejecting me was only the beginning of my adventure. Afraid of being sold to a sadistic vampire, I’m shocked when instead a mysterious Summer Court fae takes me to the faeland where I’m expected to develop my magic abilities and serve the ruthless Summer Court king. To ensure my loyalty, the king has his High Commandeer Nathan keep an eye on me. Nathan is equal parts unbending and fascinating, his blind support of the king admirable and terrifying.
