Angela’s life changes the moment she steps through the gates of Eclipse Academy. Believing she’s nothing more than an ordinary human, Angela finds herself surrounded by vampires, dragons, lycans, fae, witches, and other supernatural beings who have spent their entire lives knowing exactly what they are. While she struggles to fit into a world she never knew existed, strange things begin happening around her, and secrets buried for generations refuse to stay hidden. As forgotten powers awaken and ancient symbols begin appearing, Angela discovers she isn’t human at all. She is the last surviving heir to an ancient Fae bloodline believed to have been erased from history, a revelation that places a target on her back and ties her fate to a prophecy no one fully understands. Caught between three powerful royal heirs, Angela’s life grows even more complicated. Xavier, the fiercely protective Dragon heir, is determined to keep her safe. Silas, the loyal Vampire heir, refuses to leave her side, convinced destiny has brought them together. Then there’s Darius, the confident Lycan heir whose instincts recognize something in Angela before anyone else can explain it. As mysterious crests awaken, magical bonds strengthen, and long-forgotten prophecies begin unfolding, one message appears again and again: A choice must be made. But the ancient journal offers another warning… Many will stand before her. There can only be one. Choose wisely. With enemies closing in, hidden truths surfacing, and an ancient curse threatening her life before her twenty-first birthday, Angela must uncover the meaning behind the prophecy before time runs out. Because some secrets were buried for a reason. Some bloodlines were never meant to survive. And the cure she’s searching for may demand a price greater than anyone is willing to pay. At Eclipse Academy, loyalty is tested, rivalries ignite, friendships become family, and destiny refuses to wait. The future of every supernatural kingdom may rest in the hands of one girl who never knew she belonged to any of them.

She ran into a chapel to escape a nightmare—and stumbled straight into a billionaire’s vow. Twenty-year-old Emily Zack is desperate. Pregnant after a wild, masked one-night stand with a stranger, she is running from her parents, who are determined to take her baby and force her into a life she never wanted. All Emily wants is to keep her child and sketch her breathtaking fashion designs in peace. But when she hides behind the heavy double doors of a grand chapel, the latch gives way. Emily falls backward, crashing straight into the high-society wedding of the century. The bride has just stood up the groom. The chapel is in chaos.
