With the King of Winter's vile threats hanging over me, I have two choices: Marry Prince Vale—or run and, most likely, die. Then again, perhaps I'll die anyway when the King of Winter learns I killed a vampire prince. I might even want to die if I started a war between the fae and the vampires, but I can't just turn away from the trouble I've created. Nor take away the honorable prince's dream to find his fated mate. So I accept Vale's protection under one condition: We form a marriage of convenience.

A surly, hot wizard. A dangerous calling. A curse killing off students. I’ve dreamed of attending Spellcasters Spy Academy for as long as I can remember. So, imagine my surprise when I get there and discover it’s not the academic utopia I imagined. This place is dangerous as hell. And, I don’t mean the classes or the Samhain Trials, though those aren’t a cakewalk. They say the students in the Culling year - my year - are cursed. Someone, or maybe something, is picking us off, one by one.

The auction block awaits, and a vicious vampire prince wants me and what flows through my veins. So I make a run for it, only to end up falling at the feet of a fae warden. Technically, Roar, the Warden of the West, should return me to the vampire court, but he has other ideas. He needs a fake fiancée. The deal: if I play his dutiful partner at the Winter Court and help him trick the cold King of Winter, Roar will hide me from the blood-suckers intent on draining the life from me. I agree, and for a while, it seems like nothing can go wrong. That is until Vale sets his sights on me.

They call me the dagger. I’m an assassin and that’s all I’ve ever known. So when a white rabbit tells me that loved ones are waiting for me in the Wonderland Court of Faerie, it's surprising. And then, I learn something even more shocking.

After I tumble into Faerie, dark beasts begin to follow, lurking in the shadows, killing anyone in sight. The monsters are changing the kingdom into something it shouldn’t be, something wrong. They dim the very stars above and freeze the land below.

Hell’s royals have risen. The world teeters on the edge of destruction. And I’ve just found my real purpose in all this. There are seven Princes of Hell and seven Vindix—chosen warriors—to defeat them.

I’ve dreamed of attending Spellcasters Spy Academy for as long as I can remember. But as it turns out, it’s not the academic utopia I imagined. This place is dangerous as hell. And I don’t mean the classes. They say the students in the Culling year, my year, are cursed. Someone is picking us off. Or maybe something.

Prince Wrath has risen. The Ringmaster has come to collect my debts. Across the Atlantic coven members are being held hostage. Oh, and I nearly die.

With two sacred stones at large, the world is inching toward chaos. Closer to home, though, Luca needs our help. He’s on the brink of death, and the only way to save Luca is to venture into Hell. I feel responsible for Luca’s illness, so I’m all in. The thing is, I’m pretty sure the leader of this mission has a dark secret. Just like Tobias. The secret master himself. One minute he's is hot. The next he’s cold. Personally, I’m feeling conflicted too. Not just about him, but many things: the mission to hell, the recent coven heist and, most of all, what the heist revealed.

One day I’m raiding tombs to buy my freedom from the man who has controlled me for years. The next, I’m caught and thrown into an Egyptian prison, only to be rescued by a vampire. Yes, a vampire. Tobias is as stunning as he is grumpy, and it turns out that he has a proposition for me. One I can’t turn down because it could spell freedom.

Demons are taking over our world. To stop them, I need to embrace the black magic inside me. I hate the idea. And yet, I realize just how powerful the darkness can be. That it is probably the only thing standing between failure and success. And keeping those I love alive. Can I master the demon magic running through my veins? Or will I succumb to the darkness? What's more, if I fall, will the world fall with me?

The demon who scarred my face is dead. But my nightmare lives on. I’m back in Portland, the city of my attack, and things just keep getting weirder. And not in the quirky way this place is known for. My mentor is sensing strange energies, and when we investigate, demons appear. And my scars react too. I’m convinced the reaction is all in my mind, PTSD from coming face-to-face with a general of Hell. With the help of my friends, I do my best to work through it. Because what I should really be concerned about is how demons are crossing into the human realm more frequently.

Now that I’m participating in the Spy Games - a dangerous competition between magical spy academies - I’ve increased the risk of the queen’s minions finding and dragging me to the depths of the underworld. In fact, with each passing Spy Game event, it becomes more obvious exactly why the queen wants me. Most of the time my studies, relationships, and the tournament keep the looming threat of abduction out my mind. But when someone I love is taken by the demons, I must act. And face the powerful queen of Hell.

Winter's Realm gets colder by the day, fae are dying, and our powers are weakening. I may have the power to stop all of this. My love, Vale, believes in me. My friends do too. However, I can't do so alone. I need allies from the great houses of the Kingdom of Winter. Powerful families with armies and enough influence to take on King Magnus. To gain their loyalty, finding the long-lost Ice Scepter is of the utmost importance. What I get though, is something entirely different...

When Tobias, a vampire member of a dark-artifact hunting secret society, finds Meredith, the Pearl is long gone.

Five of seven—that’s how many Vindix I’ve found. Usually, I’d call that a decent average, but decent is not nearly good enough and time is running out. Add that to the fact that Hans, one of the five Vindix I’ve managed to find, is in a coma, cursed by the vampire queen herself. Oh, and Gunner is still missing. Before we can solve a single one of those problems, the Princes of Hell claim their territories, throwing the human world into complete upheaval. They say when it rains it pours. Well, the Coven of Shadows and Secrets must be in a hurricane.
