Shadow Academy has many secrets… and I’m one of them. Plucked from foster care and offered a scholarship to an elite school, I figured I had it made. But it didn’t take me long to discover how this school worked. Scholarship kids at the bottom of the heap, and way at the top, Ren Worthington. With his breath-taking good looks and bottomless pits of family money, you’d think he’d have better things to do than bully us poor kids. Not so. Ren and the other human students live their lives unaware of the creatures lurking in the dark. But us scholarship kids weren’t selected just for our academic skills. We’re all half-bloods and freaks - fae, witch, shifter, demon. In return for our free ride, we protect the rich brats from paranormal dangers. I don’t want to get close to Ren, I don’t want to work with him and I sure don't want to succumb to his charms, but I have no choice. Things aren’t what they seem on the surface. Our families have a history that goes way back and the connection between us might just be the thing to save or destroy me. Shadow Academy has many secrets… and maybe Ren is one of them.

From the age of eighteen, it is compulsory for all supernatural creatures to attend Shadow Academy. Failure to do so will result in certain death.Or, in my case, attendance will probably also result in certain death. I am what they refer to as a Roach--a supernatural creature with no actual powers. They think I'm a terrorist, that I will tell the human world the truth about us and expose us all.All I want to do is get through my first week at the Academy but they are picking off the Roaches one by one and I'm terrified I'll be next. I can't trust anyone. Not the gorgeous warlock, Liam, or the werewolf, Cress, who has been so nice to me.If I'm going to survive Shadow Academy, I'm going to have to blend in, ignore the infuriating hot guy, do my roommate's homework, and lie my butt off. Sounds easy, right? Pity I've never been good at fitting in.Shadow Academy is the first book in an exciting new urban fantasy series featuring witches, werewolves, vampires, seers, and everything magical.

Shadow Academy has many secrets and maybe I’m the worst one of all. When I saved Ren Worthington’s life and stopped the school dance from turning into a vampire buffet, I didn’t expect a medal, I didn’t expect kudos but I sure as heck didn’t expect to become public enemy #1 at this paranormal academy either. And, after sharing my first kiss with Ren, I’m not sure of his feelings. I don’t think he’s sure himself. If that isn’t enough, a couple of weirdos kidnap Ren and I, wanting to experiment to test the extent of our powers. Those experiments include putting us in dangerous situations until we no longer know what’s real or not. If the prophecy is true, and I am the chosen one, I need to get this mess sorted out as soon as possible, or we’ll both die.

My new school is trying to kill me… Literally. All supernatural creatures don't have a choice--we must attend Shadow Academy. Unfortunately, we're also supposed to have magical powers. Which I don't. My existence at the Academy hinges on staying undetected, even once they start picking us non-magicals off one by one. It seems like everyone is watching me and it won’t take a genius to work out I’m powerless. I can’t trust anyone. Not the infuriating gorgeous warlock or the awesome werewolf who has been so nice to me. To make matters worse, I think the supernatural council is hiding things from us. Information that could open up a whole new world of possibilities, especially for me. I have to blend in if I hope to survive Shadow Academy. Pity I’ve never been good at fitting in. Shadow Academy is the first book in an exciting new urban fantasy series featuring witches, werewolves, vampires, shapeshifters, seers, and everything magical.

In a world no more than a whisper away from our own, the Islands of Grand Britannia have been reduced by the ancient Plague Wars to a land of deep forests and a handful of small cities, governed by a powerful totalitarian Authority, based in the central city of Londonborough. Chad Mundy, a young teacher is sent to the remote city of Petra Dumnoniorum, to replace a colleague believed to have committed suicide. It soon becomes evident that there are darker, more sinister secrets locked up in the claustrophobic world of the Academy. As Mundy unravels the treachery and deceits behind the Authority, himself threatened and ultimately hunted by the ruthless Enforcer, Deadspike, the world of the dissident pagans and their hopes for freedom are cruelly tested. Events rush towards a fateful confrontation between the totalitarian Authority and the insurgents, culminating at the Midsummer festival and coinciding with a storm that will ultimately lead to tragedy.

A Teenage Girl Torn from her Family Must Survive a Series of Deadly Trials to Earn her Place in a Dangerous School of Magic, from Bestselling Authors K.F. Breene and Shannon Mayer You don't choose The Academy. The Academy chooses you. I had no idea how those words would change my life, until the day the most dangerous man I’ve ever met waltzed onto my farm and left us a death sentence. My younger brother has been chosen for The Academy: the prestigious, secret school of magic hidden within the folds of our mundane world. A place where there’s no guarantee you’ll make it out alive. If he doesn't go, our entire family will be killed. It’s the same invitation my older brother received three years ago—and he never came home. The Academy has already killed one sibling, and I’ll be damned if they take another. So I do the only thing an older sister can: chop off my hair, strap on two bras to flatten the girls, and take my brother’s place. Magic and monsters are real. Assassins are coming for me, and the dead are prone to rise. What’s a girl faking it as a boy supposed to do? Being accepted into an elite school of magic, monsters, and assassins was not my idea of higher education. But here I am, fighting my way through the deadly physical and mental tests of the Culling Trials to claim my right to be taught. In a cutthroat world where no one is as they seem, the golden rule is simple: Trust no one. The Academy tells us we should just look out for ourselves. That we should leave the fallen behind and ask no questions. Not on my watch.

In a world little more than a whisper away from ours, Chad Mundy enters a cauldron of intrigue and subterfuge to stand against the Authority and Enforcers who have been in power since The Plague Wars some hundred before.
