I’ll do whatever it takes to be free of him.

Eight months ago, my ex-boyfriend decided that if he couldn’t have me, then nobody could. What should have been the best night of my life was ruined. Stripped of friends, my parents, and denied a mate, my Soulshift was a disaster I didn’t see coming.

By now I should have been making my own family, instead I’m still searching for the one he destroyed. Once a month I slink back to my hometown for the Wild Moon. It sucks having to relive everything, but it’s better than being hunted by the pack leader for breaking his rules.

This time though, everything changes. When the Wild Moon finally shows me my mate, my last spark of hope dies. It’s him. The man who destroyed my life. There’s no way I’m letting that happen. Instead I’m leaving town for good, and while I’m at it, I’m going to find my parents. Even if rejecting the bond kills me.

Because anything is better than being Soulbound to him.

We are the ones who walk barefoot through hell, making it out the other side with nothing left except sheer will and a whole lot of grit in our pockets.

By losing everything, others hailed us as beacons of hope. Our journeys were by no means glamorous. Each of us left an important part of ourselves behind so that we might start anew.

We are the survivors.

This is our chance to grab happiness by the horns and make it our own.

I never should have agreed to becoming his fake wife...

Sinclair Amadeus Sterling aka
Mr. Superior Jackass with a God complex.
Who also happens to be my blackmailer... gulp.
Tall, dark, gazzilionaire growly pants.
The first time I met him, I kneed him in his very well endowed balls, don't ask!
He had that tightly leashed, controlling air and a smoldering glare that made me damp in seconds.
The only thing that sucks worse than his attitude is his (lack of) sense of humor! Honest.
Sadly, he's also the one who could save my business from going bust. Hell!
So when he offers me the chance to work with him, I can hardly refuse, right?
Only catch? I need to be his pretend wife for hold-your-breath, thirty days.
I should have turned and run right then, but...
He has the connections to help my sister's failing health, not to mention the money to wipe away my debt.
And yeah that... sneaky video recording of him getting me off. OMG!
Besides, it's only thirty days, right?
It’s not like I’m in danger of falling in love with London's most notorious bachelor.
Then he tells me the real reason for the charade.
And everything changes...

So…Verika’s parents run a Voodoo Academy. When, exactly, were they planning on telling her? Apparently not until she almost kills half her school.

When Verika’s shadow magic nearly takes out the cast of her school play, her parents send her to a voodoo academy they run in New Orlean’s mirror world to get her powers under control.

It’s there, at Académie de Marie Laveau, that Verika learns the hot man from her dreams isn’t just a figment of her imagination…but the most feared student ever to walk the academy’s halls.

So when things start to go missing from her teachers’ classrooms, and it appears someone is aiming to pin it on Mr. Dark and Dreamy himself, Verika knows no one is going to step in to save him.

No one but Verika, anyway.

Except, Tobias isn’t looking for a hero, and Verika’s not cut out to be a detective. Considering she’s been shadow walking in her sleep and can’t account for her own whereabouts after the lights go out, it seems she’s better suited as a suspect instead.

Fans of the Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead and the Harley Merlin series from Bella Forrest will love this new adult, slow burn paranormal academy romance from Veronica Shade.

Scroll up and one click to see if Verika can find a way to make life at Voodoo Academy work…all while dealing with bullies, would-be boyfriends, and worse…herself.

Voodoo Academy is a spin off series of Academy of the Damned but can still be enjoyed by readers who haven’t read Academy of the Damned.

There's a new strike team in Salem.

Three hot guys… and me. I’m Max: part-time demon hunter, brand new witch, and all-around tough girl.

I’m on a mission to save Father Gabriel, the only person in my life that ever cared. When an exorcism goes bad, demons drag him down to the fiery pits of Hades. I’m going to get him back, but I can’t do it alone.

The Protectors of Salem add me to their elite hit squad with three hardcore warriors who are supposed to help me come into my powers and pull off this rescue mission. It’s going to take a miracle for us to all get along.

Erik: Salem Academy’s lethal killer. He’s way too overprotective and his muscles distract me from my training. Just because he was my brother’s best friend in the Special Forces doesn’t give him the right to hold me back—or to claim a piece of my heart.

Noah: cocky warlock. That irritating smirk comes out whenever I mess up, but I can tell I get under his skin. I’m not sure either of us are ready for the explosion that’ll happen if we find a way to work together and combine our powers.

Tristan: he’s a Fae…need I say more? He sticks out in Salem Academy like a sore thumb—well, a hot one, anyway. I’m keeping an eye on him. The underbelly of demon politics is riddled with Fae influence and his connections can either help us… or betray us.

Muscle, magic, and deviance: that’s my team. Maybe Salem Academy knew what they were doing when they recruited me. Or maybe Father Gabriel will have answers about my past that I never saw coming.

But first? We’ve got some demons to destroy.

Please note: This book was previously published with the same title, with the series name "Salem Academy."

Their love is destined to shatter the boundaries of time…

Archaeology grad student Alexandra Larson’s world is turned upside down when her mother shares her deepest, darkest secret—that she doesn’t know the true identity of Lex’s father. The revelation sparks a change within Lex, and her dreams become far too real. She sees things she shouldn’t be able to see…knows things she couldn’t possibly know. Terrifying things. Deadly things.

To distract her from the surreal changes taking over her life, Lex leaps at the chance to join an Egyptian excavation run by Oxford’s enigmatic Professor Marcus Bahur. But the distraction might be more than she bargained for. While deciphering the secrets of a mysterious stone tablet, Lex falls headlong into a prophecy created by a dying god over four millennia ago. She must rely on her frightening new psychic powers to dig up the truth. And it doesn’t take long for her visions to convince her that both Professor Bahur and his excavation are much more than they seem…

The past clashes with the present in this paranormal saga of ancient prophecies and warring gods. If you like Egyptian mythology, steamy romance, time-bending mysteries, and complex characters, then you’ll love this sprawling time travel adventure.

"This book is mean and kinky, desperate and romantic...I was consumed." - KC Caron, Goodreads Reviewer

Edward Fasbender is a devil.

He's my father's biggest rival. He takes what he wants, and he bows to no one.

And now Edward Fasbender wants me.

I didn't expect to want him back.

Having him is not in the cards, not when a union with him would destroy my father. But that doesn't mean I can't play with him a bit.

Except, I've never played against such a ruthless opponent. Edward is cold and vicious, and my blood has never run hotter.
They say you should choose the devil you know, but I've always preferred long odds.

Even if it'll get me slain.

Burn For Me
One alpha man. One sassy woman. A fire that won’t die. Once upon a time, Amelia was my everything. Until I lost her. Now I have a second chance, and I want her back.
One look and the years apart go up in smoke. She’s all I ever wanted. A snappy attitude and the nerve to bring me to my knees.

Slow Burn
I put out fires for a living. I can take some heat. Maisie drives me crazy. She’s smart-mouthed and sarcastic. This town’s too small for both of us. But she works for me. Unfortunately.
She's brash and beautiful and tempts me beyond distraction. There are different kinds of fire, and this one will make her melt.
There’s only one problem: this fire might be too hot for both of us.

Burn So Bad
Lucy hates me. She especially hates how much I want her.
But she can’t be bothered to even give me the time of day. I should give up the chase, but I can’t.
It’s more than a spark between us. It’s a bonfire. Fate rolls the dice and lands Lucy right where I want her. She needs my help, and I need her.

Hot Mess
Susannah is the only woman who’s ever tested my control. Fighting fires is my life, but I can’t put out the fire between us.

Still, I have this. I can handle her. Then I find out she’s pregnant—with our baby.

These stories are perfect for readers who love small town romance, hotshot firefighters, second chances, friends to lovers, smart sassy heroines, frenemies to lovers, hate to love, opposites attract, slow burn, surprise pregnancy, emotional romances with a dash of angst, plenty of swoon, and protective grumpy heroes.

Being immortal doesn’t mean you can’t die. It just means you’re damn hard to kill.

When Alexei Medvedev joined the Forgotten Brotherhood—paranormals hired to assassinate other paranormals—he knew it wouldn’t be a cake walk. But his next target is one of Death’s own Reapers gone rogue. For the first time since he started this gig, “damn hard to kill” feels more like “damn near impossible.”

Tracking Cassie Dobbs brings him to a remote bar in small-town Alaska, where this hot-as-hell Reaper is casually serving drinks, as if she doesn’t have a bounty on her head from Death himself. Alexei is dangerously intrigued. Everyone in the Brotherhood knows the first rule: don’t fall for your target.

But Alexei soon has bigger problems to face than an unexpected attraction. They only send assassins after those who deserve to die…or so he’s been made to believe. Now that he’s met Cassie, though, he’s not so sure.

What if everything he’s been told is a lie, and the person he’s been sent to kill is the only one who knows the truth?

One day I was just a widow facing the prospect of an empty nest, living a life that was anything but enchanted. The next, I had discovered my magical roots, and my rightful place as the Guardian of the portal between the Faery and Earth.

There was shock. And there was fear. After all, no one plans to start over at forty-five. I intended to grow old with my husband. I thought we’d live an ordinary life. So I’ll be damned if I’m going to waste this opportunity to live in a world I always thought was imaginary.

I’m half-witch, half-faery, and facing dangers as real as the ache in my bad knee. Ibuprofen and caffeine keep me going, and I could do this for the rest of my life. Whoever thinks my family home is an easy mark better take notice: the new Guardian in town isn’t going down without a fight.

After all, she’s already learned to let go of her simple existence and believe in the extraordinary power inside of her. What could possibly stop her now?
