Fame. Fortune. Your most extravagant wish granted. These are the prizes promised to the team that wins the Faerie Race, the first and only reality television show to venture into the dangerous realm of the fae. But that's not why Jacqueline Cunningham wants in. She's after any sign of her sister - who vanished without a trace into the faerie world two years ago. Jacq thought getting into the race would be the hard part. But she didn't count on the other competitors - who will stop at nothing to finish first.

The Faerie Race has proven more grueling and deadly than Jacqueline thought possible. With one trial down and two to go, it seems the reality show's producers will stop at nothing to get their ratings - even murder. It will take all of Jacq's cunning to get through the next trial unscathed, but all she can think about is her discovery that her sister is alive. Too bad her search for answers has only left her with more questions, and more enemies.

No one understands what it's like when your mother is famous for her beauty and you are, at best, average. Actually I'm wrong. She wasn't famous just for her beauty, but that's how people tell the story, how people have always told the story. That was even her name for a while. No one remembered her real name. She was just the sleeping princess or Sleeping Beauty. I'm only a footnote in my own life, destined to always be Sleeping Beauty's daughter. My name's Princess Azia Rose of Draconis, and here is my story....

The final trial of the Faerie Race has arrived: a head-to-head battle through the streets of Elfame city. Jacq and Orin should be ecstatic to have made it this far - but tragedy overshadows them both - leaving the pair wondering if the cost to continue is too high. Only the unexpected reappearance of her long-lost sister keeps Jacq in the game, but Cass's presence comes with troubles of its own. The ancient Brotherhood is closer than ever to carrying out a twisted plot that would mean an end to modern human civilization.

With secrets unraveling, friends and enemies creeping out of the shadows, and a terrifying past coming to light, Lyric is faced with a decision that could decide the fate of the world. Trusting others has never been a problem for her. It’s why she’s in this mess, but believing in herself enough to unlock the magic of her destiny? That’s a different story. If her own mother abandoned her with a twelve-year-old, how “special” could she really be?

With everything Lyric loves gone or at risk, she has no choice but to follow Bay on a mission to stop the pirates before they take all of Skyla. Their destination? Neverland. From the moment she steps foot on the island, Lyric can’t help but feel like she knows the magical world in the stars, but she has very little time to dwell on that sensation. With krakens, sirens, and the very island itself trying to swallow her, she has to focus. Get to the pirates. Defeat the pirates. Save her home. Or die trying.

With the pirates closer to finding the power to take Skyla and an ancient temple trial looming above Lyric and her friends, things couldn’t get much more ominous. Add unresolved feelings for someone who should be an enemy and so many internal doubts it’s suffocating, and Lyric’s life couldn’t get more stressful. Until the very battle she went to Neverland to stop appears on her doorstep. When everything she tried to save slips through her fingers, Hook seals his fate. She won’t rest until he’s defeated, even if it means leaving Skyla behind. Again.

Skyla is my home. It has always been my home. But will it always be my prison? As long as I can remember, Peter has told me I’m Skyla’s good luck charm, but with that title, he refuses to let me leave the floating islands and go on adventures like he does. I spend my days exploring one island after another, after another...and while I may stumble upon a magical cove now and then, when you’ve seen one floating patch of dirt, you’ve seen them all. Such is not said about boys with pixies.

You thought you knew the story of Cinderella...You were wrong. The kingdom needs an heir and Princess Charmaine is quite aware that the job rests solely upon her shoulders... As a servant in the castle kitchens, Cynder knows his place beneath the royals...When the two meet, sparks fly...and not just the magical kind.

Princess Erica can't live under the ocean, and Ari can't live above it, and yet they are destined to be together, bonded by magic. With circumstances keeping them apart and magic bringing them together, they find themselves living impossible lives with no way around it. Snatching time together here and there is one thing, but when Erica's father becomes ill and with Erica due to ascend to the throne, even that has to stop.

Living in a kingdom surrounded by ocean and filled with waterways, I'm supposed to love the sea creatures Atlantice is famous for. What the people don't know is that I'm a proud member of the Anti Mermaid League. My mission in life is to rid the kingdom's waters of the Merfolk that inhabit them. Or at least it was, until I met one of them....

Dragons have terrorized Julianna's village for generations. Nothing will stop her from succeeding in her first dragon hunt. Until she meets one, that is. His isn't what she was told to expect. Big, angry beast? No. Normal looking man? Um...yeah. Ash is just as surprised by his first "dragon slayer". She's not big and tough. Sure, she's got a fire diamond sword - which she's very proud of - and some really uncomfortable looking armor, but her heart is bigger than she's willing to admit.

With the dragons attacking and the kingdom falling apart, Azia must find out about her history to make changes to her future. But heading up the mountains to see the dragons is a downright insane idea. Fortunately for Azia, she has never been one to let a spark of insanity stop her from doing anything. With a cast of characters including a witch, a seer, dwarves, and of course, dragons, Heiress of Embers is the second spellbinding installment of the Kingdom of Fairytales: Sleeping Beauty.

What happened after the happily ever after? You all know the story of your favorite fairytale, but did you ever wonder what happened after the fairytale ending? Well we know. Not all afters end up happily, sometimes the real adventure starts much later...With the queen's curse returning, the Anti-Mermaid League are on the warpath and the merfolk aren't helping matters with their jealousy over my relationship with Fish. I'd never thought that enemies could turn to lovers, but my feelings towards my sworn enemy are deepening and I'm not the only one to notice.

The kingdom needs an heir, and Princess Charmaine is quite aware the job rests solely upon her shoulders. When her elder sister dies, Charmaine has to take her place at the ball designed to find her a husband. With 100 men to choose from and her wedding planned, all she has to do is pick one. But love can sometimes be found in the most unlikely of places and at the most inconvenient of times.

Julianna never thought that going after her first dragon after years of dreaming to be a Slayer would result in saving one, but now she's determined to not only keep Ash safe, but help him free the dragons trapped in the Slayer's swords. The only way to free them requires a visit to the goblins who created the swords in the first place. Not so easy a task when Dronias is divided by war.

Julianna, a born dragon slayer, has found herself in the precarious position of being an unwitting dragon savior instead. Only her blood is able to unlock the dragons bound inside the goblin-made slayers' blades. But some of the swords are missing and the dragons, slayers, and even the wolves are on a mission to find them.

Once the ruler of the kingdom of Silverwood, Queen Charmaine finds herself running as a fugitive from the only life she has ever known. With the people believing her to be dead and a tyrant taking over her land, Charmaine has to fight for her life, the lives of her family, and most of all, the magi of Silverwood. Will she find a way to take her rightful place as the queen of Silverwood before her enemy is coronated, or will she succumb to the evil forces out to get her?

The kingdom is in turmoil after the death of the king, and it’s up to Princess Charmaine to set things right. With her coronation looming and an upcoming wedding to sort out, she barely has time to worry about the people of magic who so desperately need her. Still on the run from the police and no longer wanted in the kingdom he once loved, Cynder is forced to find another way to live. But when a chance encounter puts him back in touch with the love he lost, he knows he must do everything in his power to save her.

I know I shouldn't have read my mother's diaries, but I wasn't prepared for the huge revelation about my history. It seems I'm not the only one interested in my past. Kidnapped by the Sea Witch, I need to find the connection between her and my mother or risk being stuck here forever...or worse. Can Fish save me or am I destined to be a slave to the witch forever?
