The Wolf House: The Complete Series

by Mary Borsellino

In this new edition of the acclaimed series, Goth teens and rock musicians battle ruthless vampires — and the perils of the heart.

The mean streets of Chicago belong to The Wolf House — a pack of vampires like:

Blake, who loves toying with hunters;
Tim, who’s lost several centuries of his memory;
Cora, who has an unquenchable thirst for cruelty.

Facing off against them are a collection of artists, punk rockers, and misfit high schoolers— smart, talented, angry ... and doomed:

Bette and Rose, best friends lured into the vampires’ world;
Lily and Will, vampire hunters, musicians, and all-around human disasters;
Sofie and Jay, who barely survived Cora’s brutality and now are Blake’s pawns.

In the world of the undead, love is a curse and friendship a weapon. When the sun goes down, the games begin … and innocence dies.

1. Origins and Overtures: At first, Bette and Jay are more fascinated than frightened by the secret underworld of vampires ... but they're about to find out just how wrong they are.


2. Roads and Crosses: When death creeps in closer than ever, it destroys the equilibrium Lily and Will shared. Can the new people they're becoming hope to regain what's been lost?


3. Fair Game: Vampires obsessively stalk those they love and gleefully manipulate those they oppose. As tensions between humans and vampires begin to boil over, Bette and Tim wonder how much of a person's identity can survive those new instincts.


4. Fire Proof Heart: Having an eating disorder was miserable enough as a human. Now that Ash is a vampire, it's a living hell. She's the latest victim of Cora's evil games against Blake, but now Blake -- capricious, charming, endlessly bloodthirsty -- is the only one who can save her.


5. Last Girl: In the horror movies Michelle watches with her friends, the last girl is the one who kills the monster and gets to live, even when everyone else is dead. It's not a role Michelle wants, but that's not her choice to make. And it seems as if Alexander's only reward for tenaciously surviving all this time is to lose everything over and over again. When all's said and done, is being the last one standing a blessing or a curse?

Fans of Percy Jackson will also enjoy this inspiring story of heroic perseverance against the impossible...


(A Contemporary Fantasy Adventure/Humorous Mystery, ages 9 & up)

When life gives Tiz Phoenix lemons, she hunts life down and kicks it in the shin. Afterwards, she juices those lemons then plants the seeds. She's a tree nymph. And that's what tree nymphs do to survive in a modern society that keeps stretching across our Earth.

Now that Tiz is thirteen, she's counting down the seconds to a tree nymph rite of passage that would grant her an object of immense power. With it, she could save her woodland home and reach her goal of protecting all things good and green.

That is, if she doesn't get grounded first.

The day before the rite, Tiz stumbles upon a pamphlet that her mother unwittingly dropped — her mom wants to banish her to a military academy for magical beings that lies in the farthest corner of the universe. Unlike other mystical schools that young witches and warlocks desperately want to get into, Tiz would rather run for the hills to stay out.

However, her attempts to avoid going could lead her into an even bigger mess — a mystery involving a monstrous green tree of legendary evil.

by Rachel Van Dyken


This book is the sixth book in the internationally bestselling Eagle Elite Series. It's an interconnected stand alone novel with no cliffhanger.

Twenty-Four hours before we were to be married--I offered to shoot her.

Ten hours before our wedding--I made a mockery of her dying wish.

Five hours before we were going to say our vows--I promised I'd never love her.

One hour before I said I do--I vowed I'd never shed a tear over her death.

But the minute we were pronounced man and wife--I knew.

I'd only use my gun to protect her.

I'd give my life for hers.

I'd cry.

And I would, most definitely, lose myself, to a dying girl---a girl who by all accounts should have never been mine in the first place.

I always believed the mafia would be my end game--poisoning my heart, while it claimed my soul. I could have never imagined. It would be my redemption.

Or the beginning of something beautiful.

The beginning of her.

The end of us.
