"An entertaining foray into lifestyles of the rich and magical." —Kirkus ReviewsSeventeen-year-old Bryar Rose has a problem. She's descended from one of the three magical races—shifters, fairies, or witches. That makes her one of the Magicorum, and Magicorum always follow a fairy tale life template. In Bryar's case, that template should be Sleeping Beauty."Should" being the key word.Trouble is, Bryar is nowhere near the sleeping beauty life template. Not even close. She doesn't like birds or woodland creatures. She can't sing. And she certainly can't stand Prince Philpot, the so-called "His Highness of Hedge Funds" that her aunties want her to marry.

He has no memories, noidentity, and no pulse, but he has dreams.After experiencing a teenage boy's memories while consuming his brain, R makes an unexpected choice that begins a tense, awkward, and stragely sweet relationship with the victim's human girlfriend.

A book of fae secrets has come to light and they're all about to find out how implacable — and dangerous — the fae can be. OK, so maybe her troubles have nothing to do with the job.
