Magic school. Hot shifters. Hidden dangers. Was your college this fun? The world knows paranormal creatures exist. They're clerks, nurses, teachers, and even lawyers. But first, before they're allowed free rein in the mortal realm, half-fae like Skylar must endure four years of training at PNRU's academy of magic and higher learning. When her freshman year begins, it doesn't take long to discover the school has serious issues. Between rogue vampire attacks in Chicago and a rising student body count, she's convinced something sinister is at large. On top of that, the only non-fae to take her seriously is Gabriel, a wereraven from the infamous night class. He's hotter than hellfire, dedicated to his studies, and dating the campus mean girl--but willing to give Sky private martial arts lessons. And since nothing is tastier to a nosferatu than fae blood, Sky needs every advantage she can get... before her first year away from home becomes her last. A thrilling blend of paranormal romance and spell-binding adventure with the tension of Vampire Academy, the atmosphere of Harry Potter, and the faerie magic of The Cruel Prince. Skylar's story is a slow-burn, friends-to-lovers adult romance series of full-length novels following the same couple.

“Hartmann delivers a full-throated indictment of the U.S. Supreme Court in this punchy polemic." —Publishers Weekly Thom Hartmann, the most popular progressive radio host in America and a New York Times bestselling author, explains how the Supreme Court has spilled beyond its Constitutional powers and how we the people should take that power back. Taking his typically in-depth, historically informed view, Thom Hartmann asks, What if the Supreme Court didn't have the power to strike down laws? According to the Constitution, it doesn't. From the founding of the republic until 1803, the Supreme Court was the final court of appeals, as it was always meant to be. So where did the concept of judicial review start? As so much of modern American history, it began with the battle between the Federalists and Anti-Federalists, and with Marbury v. Madison. Hartmann argues it is not the role of the Supreme Court to decide what the law is but rather the duty of the people themselves. He lays out the history of the Supreme Court of the United States, since Alexander Hamilton's defense to modern-day debates, with key examples of cases where the Supreme Court overstepped its constitutional powers. The ultimate remedy to the Supreme Court's abuse of power is with the people--the ultimate arbiter of the law--using the ballot box. America does not belong to the kings and queens; it belongs to the people.

Hazel's tenure as Gatekeeper between the Summer Court and the human realm has barely begun and she's already stopped one attempted coup. But with no monarch in control of the Summer Court of Faerie, full-blown anarchy threatens to break out. Everyone wants a piece of the Gatekeeper -- in a literal sense, if they find out the explosive secret the Erlking left her with after his death. Worse, a notorious fae criminal has escaped jail, and in the process, kidnapped the only person who knows the identity of the next ruler of Summer. Hazel's first task as Gatekeeper is to find both of them, and save the heir of Summer before the Courts fall into chaos. She has help in the form of her old mentor, Darrow, except he's here on a mission from his own Queen that puts Hazel in even more danger. As she closes in on the enemy, it becomes harder and harder for Hazel to keep her loved ones safe. Torn between promises old and new, Hazel is going to have to betray someone… and her decision might well lead to the ruin of everything she's ever known.

VIGIL "Though your wife ran away with a soldier that day, And took with her your trifle of money; Bless your heart, they don't mind-they're exceedingly kind- They don't blame you-as long as you're funny!" W. S. Gilbert: "The Family Fool." Roused by a report of peace hardly less deafening than the crash of war four and a half years earlier, the winter garden of the Majestic hummed like a vast and airless beehive. On the long sofas by the walls, in deferential clusters round some slow-voiced, arm-chair oracle and in wavering groups at one moment distinct and at another herded together, everybody who could find room between the crowded tables and the obtrusive palm-tubs eagerly volleyed question and answer, contributing his pennyworth of gossip and retiring with his pound of rumour.
