North, South… and a Star. A six-year war rages in Chicago. Death is postponed by a debt of gratitude. Envy encourages the unthinkable. Hate destroys lives. Love complicates relationships. Two enemies wish for the same thing—to take what the other one holds dear. Amid all the chaos—Layla, the perfect bargaining chip for both sides to manipulate. Divided between two bosses, blinded by her own unfulfilled needs, she ignores the risks and makes an irrevocably dangerous decision.

North, South… and no Star. Chicago falls into Dante’s hands. His six-year dream becomes a reality. But it means nothing without Layla by his side. The war has ended… peace failed to follow. Tormented by recent events, Dante struggles to choose a path. Betrayal cuts deep, no matter the circumstances, hatred keeps his mind busy but it’s no match for the heart. Going up against love is futile.

Daesyn Heartlocke wanted nothing more than to finish her latest assassin-for-hire job, get her boss off her back, and get back to hanging out with her talking monkey. But when the job goes wrong, Daesyn finds herself being dragged into her father’s world of the reapers. The world she ran away from, the world that offers nothing more than darkness. What’s worse? To stay free and, most importantly, alive, Daesyn has to swap places with a student who is due to go to a crazy academy. Royal Reaper Academy is a two-year test, and only one student comes out alive.

Being killed dozens of times wasn’t exactly the plan when Daesyn signed up for the academy, nor was being kidnapped by the insane Seelie Fae King. Four runes exist in the worlds, and the Seelie Fae King wants them all. To get the Cursed Rune, Daesyn has to die. For good this time, and she has no interest in that happening. Days away from her twenty-first birthday, Daesyn needs to escape her captor and get back to the Reaper Realm before the Otherworld gives her a power predicted to destroy the worlds.
