Sixteen-year-old Merry is fed up with her feuding family and nonexistent social life. High school is a terrible time to have magic shooting from her fingertips without warning. Then Merry meets sweet, sensitive Jack, and can't resist falling under his spell. There's just one problem: he's part of an evil, centuries-old curse that Merry is supposed to break. Is Merry about to lose her heart and her life? Or will true love's kiss save the day?

Deina has finally found what matters most to her in all the world. And lost it. To save the one she loves, she's bound herself to the Underworld and an endless future of darkness. But not even her sacrifice is enough to secure Theron or her friends' safety in the mortal realm. Aristaeus has seized power in Thebes, and his tyrannical reign is a constant, looming threat to their lives.

Deina is trapped. As one of the Soul Severers serving the god Hades on earth, her future is tied to the task of shepherding the dying on from the mortal world—unless she can earn or steal enough to buy her way out. Then the tyrant ruler Orpheus offers both fortune and freedom to whoever can retrieve his dead wife, Eurydice, from the Underworld. Deina jumps at the chance. But to win, she must enter an uneasy alliance with a group of fellow Severers she neither likes nor trusts. So begins their perilous journey into the realm of Hades . . .
