Adelaide has lived her whole life in rural Ethiopia as the white American daughter of an anthropologist. Then, her family moves to South Carolina in 1964. Adelaide vows to find her way back to Ethiopia, marry Maicaah, and become part of the village for real. But until she turns 18, Adelaide must adjust to this strange, white place that everyone tells her is home. Then, Adelaide becomes friends with the five African American students who sued for admission into the white high school.

She was promised a future. She woke up fighting for her life. Eliana Castillo was on the brink of a new beginning--an engagement to the heir of a powerful crime family. Then darkness. She wakes battered, bloodied and freezing in the woods of Detroit Lakes, with no memory of what took place or why someone wanted her dead. Investigators Jon and Serena Frederick uncover a web of secrets, lies, and buried loyalties that span from mafia ties to small-town vendettas. The deeper they dive, the darker the possibilities--and the more urgent it becomes to recover Eliana's memories.

Seven months ago, goddess magic allowed me, the very human Marigold Everlee, to have a couple of sizzling nights with the very paranormal Zev. He was tall, dark, and smoking hot. Literally. He's an ifrit—a fire-magic-wielding djinn. Spoiler alert: When the goddess magic poofed—so did Zev.

Talk about a girl on fire. Literally. Sharing a piece of Zev's soul also gives me access to his fire magic. Oh, yeah, we keep things hot. After a harrowing rescue mission where I pissed off half the folks in a secret supernatural realm—not to mention a snake goddess who wants Zev all to herself—I knew trouble would find us again. I just didn't expect it to show up on the same day I brought Zev home. Someone who clearly missed the memo on "leave the people I love alone or get fired from life" has kidnapped my brother Rowan.
