From Lambda Literary Award finalist Linsey Miller comes this thrilling stand-alone fantasy about the lengths we'll go to get ahead—an incredibly fresh, twisty love letter to dark academia...with a body count.
Perfect for fans of A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid, Gallant by V. E. Schwab, and All of Us Villains by Amanda Foody and C. L. Herman.
There is only one school worth graduating from, and it creates as many magicians as it does graves…
First in his class and last in his noble line, Fabian Galloway’s only hope of a good future is passing his elite school's honors class. It’s only offered to the best thirteen students, and those students have a single assignment: kill their professor.
If they succeed, their student debt is forgiven. However, if an assassination attempt fails or the professor is alive at the end of the year, the students’ lives are forfeit.
And dealing with the professor, a devil summoned solely to kill or be killed, is no easy task.
Fabian isn't worried, though. He trusts his best friends—softhearted math genius Credence and absent-minded but insightful Euphemia—to help. After all, that’s why he befriended them.
As the months pass and their professor remains impossibly alive, the trio must use every asset they have to survive. Or else failure will be on their academic records—and their tombstones—forever.
Delphine possesses great power—too much power for the daughter of farmers. The Mage’s Guild would eagerly take her, but she wants nothing to do with its arrogant and self-centered members. That is, until her friend is abducted in front of her.
Now Delphine needs her power, but to access it, she’ll have to apprentice herself to a traveling master. Amara is willing to take Delphine, but Delphine has a secret—one that will cripple her apprenticeship before it even begins. And once she leaves home, the secrets keep mounting.
On the road, Delphine’s healing power wins her a new friend—a wild fox she names Ember—but it also catches the attention of the dangerous man who abducted her friend, and of Nik, the mysterious mage hunting him. Now Delphine herself is in danger, and Nik might be her only way out. But first she has to overcome her crippling secrets and convince Nik that together they can be stronger than apart.

But now they know the truth of his ability, they can’t let anything stand in the way of stopping him. Delphine’s unique skills are their best tool for facing Grey, but they also make her a target.

But there are things Delphine doesn’t know about her own ability, and once in Grey’s orbit, it might not be as easy to extricate herself as she expects. Confused, and with her allegiance wavering, Delphine clings to the one certainty in the fog surrounding her—Nik. But when the two of them end up stranded and facing a threat that could upend the entire kingdom, Delphine isn’t sure if she can rely on the man who’s stolen her heart. If she wants them both to survive, she’ll have to discover the limits of both her power and her will.

Passion. Anger. Fire.
All these feelings are burning inside me.

I’m trying to move on, but it seems Noah has only just begun toying with me and my heart.
He still has more secrets, and he’s not the only person hiding something from me. But as I dig deeper, and the truth is finally revealed, I’m torn between the boy I thought was in my past and the one I believed was my future.
I’m facing heartbreak once again, but there’s an even bigger threat on the horizon that I could never see coming — one that could ruin us all.
Sweet Ruin is the third book in the Weybridge Academy series and the final part of Isobel's story, which comes to a complete and dramatic conclusion. Enjoy!
**Two sisters. Two seeds of power. One Mage's Guild, and an unprecedented new power—but which sister does it belong to?** Cadence and her sister possess the seeds of glory and ruin—or so their father always insisted. Cadence never understood what he meant until Airlie’s seed of power is activated, turning her into the most powerful mage in generations. Despite knowing it must mean her own dormant seed is much more malevolent, Cadence is swept away to the distant Mage’s Guild in her sister’s wake. She’s used to living in Airlie’s shadow, but she can’t see a place for herself in this new world. Nor can she believe in the apparent interest of the charming Zeke. No one has ever chosen her over her beautiful sister. But leaving her new home isn’t an option. Plagued by questions from her isolated childhood, Cadence needs answers, and the Guild might hold them. But as the revelations grow, Cadence must find a way to conceal the truth from her new companions before the sisters’ secrets turn everyone against them. And as word of Airlie’s power spreads, new danger emerges. Across the kingdom’s border, a threat is growing among the ruins of their former neighbor—enemies who will do anything to get their hands on the sisters and the seeds they contain. No longer able to shelter behind Airlie, Cadence must make a choice. Will she embrace her power—whatever it might be—or pursue a different path? While the twisted vines that connect them threaten to tear apart everything Cadence and Airlie hold dear, they might offer the only chance for survival. If the sisters have any chance of saving their world, they must do it together. If you enjoy strong heroines, fantasy worlds, sibling dynamics, adventure, and clean romance, then try this new world now!
Secrets. Lies. Betrayal.
I’ve only been at my exclusive new boarding school a few weeks, but I’ve already encountered my fair share of each.

It’s clear now that Noah and I can never be together. But my heart doesn’t seem to care. The boy is everywhere I look. Taunting me. Toying with me. Tempting me – and he’s not the only one.
Surviving my senior year at Weybridge Academy is going to be even harder than I thought.
Prepare for swoon-worthy moments, dramatic twists and characters you’ll fall in love with in this contemporary teen romance set in the elite world of Weybridge Academy. This is the second part of a three-book series and ends in a cliff-hanger. Enjoy!
Popular. Powerful. Filthy Rich.
Noah Hastings is everything I’m not.
Our worlds never should have collided, but when my long-lost father reappears my life is flipped upside down. It turns out, he’s ridiculously wealthy, and without warning he plucks me from my simple life and throws me into a world of excess.
He’s sending me to the most elite boarding school in the country, where money and status mean everything. He gives me only one rule while I’m there—stay away from Noah Hastings.
It should be a simple request. Noah is the king of Weybridge Academy, the heir to an empire and a serial heartbreaker. I’m just the new girl who grew up waiting tables. I don’t fit into Noah’s world, and he could never be a part of mine.
There’s more to this boy than I expected though, and he seems just as drawn to me as I am to him.
But it’s not only our differences that stand between us — it's the secrets we keep.
Sweet Heartbreak is the first part of a three-book series following Isobel and Noah story in the elite world of Weybridge Academy. Book 1 ends in a cliff-hanger.
With the borders breaking down, and their friends in the settlement in deadly danger, Cadence and Airlie need to act fast. Instead they’re caught up in politics where torn allegiances threaten their freedom. But the greatest danger lies across the border in the fallen kingdom. The threat of the General still looms large, and the wild power is far beyond the control of any one person. After a lifetime of deception, the sisters are still discovering their power and heritage. Airlie wants to let go of her final secret, but she worries it could pave the path to further destruction, and she fears its revelation might mean losing Cadence for good. But it also might offer their only hope of salvation. If the sisters have any chance of saving their world, they must do it together.
In the chaos of daily life, many Christians long for the time and mental clarity to reflect on scripture, to worship, and to pray. The Tarot can become an unexpected tool in this journey, inviting us to pause, contemplate, and find insight and wisdom in our walk. In The Contemplative Tarot, author Brittany Muller draws deeply on Christian tradition and theology to create a tarot practice built on spiritual reflection, prayer, and worship.
The Tarot has held countless meanings to countless listeners over the course of its existence, but The Contemplative Tarot offers a uniquely Christian interpretation of the cards, including Bible verses and meditations on each of their spiritual meanings. Brittany provides practical guidance on how to use the cards in a Christian context, whether as prompts for personal prayer, daily reminders of spiritual truths, or as part of a more structured practice such as the Ignatian examen.
The Contemplative Tarot offers a thoughtful, introspective new interpretation of the Tarot and an invitation to create powerful moments of reflection and worship in your daily life.
