Sie waren meine Tyrannen. Jetzt sind sie alles, was zwischen mir und meinen Albträumen steht. Trey, Quinn, und Ayaz – der König, der Narr und der Geheimnisvolle. Drei Kerle, die mein Leben auf den Kopf gestellt, mein Herz entflammt und mir gezeigt haben, dass nichts so ist, wie es scheint. Im letzten Quartal haben sie mich zerstört. Ich dachte, dass es an der Miskatonic Academy nicht schlimmer werden kann. Ich lag falsch. Vor zwanzig Jahren hat eine Tragödie diese Schule für immer verändert. Arroganz hat diesen Ort des Lernens in ein Haus der Schrecken verwandelt.

Mina freut sich darauf, an der jährlichen Argleton Jane Austen Experience im stattlichen Lachlan Hall teilzunehmen. Nach all den Morden ist es genau das Richtige für sie–ein ganzes Wochenende lang mit Morrie tanzen, mit Quoth an Dichterlesungen teilnehmen und Heathcliff dabei helfen, Heiratsanträge von begeisterten Fans abzuwehren. Doch Mord und Intrigen folgen Mina überall hin. Als ein angesehener Austen-Gelehrter mit seinem eigenen Schwert erstochen wird, müssen Mina und ihre Jungs das Rätsel lösen, bevor der Mörder ein weiteres Opfer fordert.

Das Feuer nahm mir alles. Meine Eltern. Meinen besten Freund. Mein Leben. - Nun habe ich eine zweite Chance erhalten. Ich muss nur ein einziges Jahr an ...

Zuerst vergiftet jemand Frau Scarlett, und dann fallen die Mitglieder des Buchclubs um wie die Fliegen. Wer im Dorf wird zum Mörder, nur um Leute davon abzuhalten, ein paar staubige alte Bücher zu lesen? Mina muss es schnell herausfinden, sonst ist ihre geliebte Lehrerin Frau Ellis die Nächste, die sterben wird.

Book Boyfriends mögen besser sein, aber sie sind mehr Ärger als sie wert sind. Nachdem ich mich von meinem Traumjob in der Modebranche verabschiedet habe, kehre ich unter der Last des Scheiterns in mein Heimatdorf zurück und nehme einen Job im beschaulichen Nevermore Bookshop an. Ich hoffe auf ein paar ruhige Monate, um mein Leben in den Griff zu bekommen. Aber dies ist keine gewöhnliche Buchhandlung. Ein mysteriöser Fluch auf Nevermore erweckt berüchtigte Schurken aus der klassischen Literatur in der realen Welt zum Leben.

Lord Alaric Valerian has a problem. His mother is visiting his castle for the first time, but she doesn't know that Alaric has filled every room with his centuries of artistic passions and creative pursuits.

Mina, Heathcliff, Morrie, and Quoth are tying the knot in an extravagant ceremony. But when someone sabotages the decorations and Heathcliff receives a threatening note, they realize that a saboteur in the village doesn't want them to have their happily-ever-after. Their wedding misadventures turn deadly when the wedding saboteur murders the celebrant. Add in a duck-napping, disastrous dance lessons, absent book reviewers, Mina's mother's newest business venture, and visits from old friends . . . and enemies, and Mina has a matrimonial catastrophe on her hands.

Luckily, Mina Wilde loves him anyway, as well as her two other literary boyfriends—the 'Napolean of Crime,' James Moriarty, and Poe's contemplative raven, Quoth. It's tough buying the perfect Christmas gifts for three lovers, but Mina's determined to make this year the best Christmas Nevermore Bookshop has ever seen. That is until the charity Christmas tree and all the presents donated by the village go missing. Heathcliff's grinching makes him the obvious culprit, but Mina knows Heathcliff isn't mean enough to steal gifts for the animal shelter . . . or is he?

I thought I was close to figuring out the truth about the mysterious death of my roommate. But Blackfriars University still holds her secrets close.

At Blackfriars University, there’s one whispered rule: Stay inside the night before Halloween. Hide under your blankets and hope the Orpheus Society isn’t the monster outside your window. If they get you, you won’t just be humiliated. They’ll put you six feet under. But I’ve screwed up. I found bones in a shallow grave. Another good girl, just like me. Now I’ll do whatever it takes to get to the truth. I’ll tempt the dark priest with forbidden tastes. I’ll be their shameful little secret. Their plaything. Their sacrifice.

Psst. I have a secret. Are you ready? I’m Mackenzie Malloy, and everyone thinks they know who I am. Five years ago, I disappeared. No one has seen me or my family outside the walls of Malloy Manor since. But now I’m coming to reclaim my throne: The Ice Queen of Stonehurst Prep is back. Standing between me and my everything?

Ivan, Titus, Dorien. The bad boys of Baroque, the kings of this school. They messed with the wrong girl. I’ll topple them from their thrones. They made me trust them. They made me want them. Now, I’m going to haunt their asses. Even if it costs me...everything. They'll carry their secrets to their graves. If they don't put me six-feet-under first. Manderley Academy won’t claim another victim. They can't shove these skeletons back in the closet. I'll do whatever it takes to get justice. It’s time for Manderley's ghosts to come out and play.

When my mom got sick, my dreams of a career in music imploded. That is, until Madame Usher wafts into my life like a ghost from the past, offering me the chance to study at the exclusive Manderley Academy - a music school for the most gifted and wealthy. It’s an offer I can’t refuse - free room and board at the Gothic mansion where elite students immerse themselves in mastering their art. But there’s a catch, and it’s a big one.

Mina's excited to attend the annual Argleton Jane Austen Experience at the stately Baddesley Hall. It's just what she needs after all the recent murders - a whole weekend of dancing with Morrie, attending poetry readings with Quoth, and helping Heathcliff field marriage proposals from adoring fans. But murder and intrigue follow Mina everywhere. When an eminent Austen scholar is run through with his own sword, Mina and her boys must solve the mystery before the killer claims another victim.

When the local Banned Book Club loses their meeting room, Mina volunteers to host the group at Nevermore Bookshop (against Heathcliff's muttered protests, of course). Little does she know this old biddies book club is about to turn murderous. First, someone poisons Mrs. Scarlett, then members of the book club start dropping like flies. Who in the village will turn to murder just to stop people reading a few dusty old books? Mina's got to figure it out quick, or her beloved teacher Mrs. Ellis is next to die. Luckily, she's got Moriarty, Heathcliff, and Quoth to help.

After being fired from her fashion internship in New York City, Mina Wilde decides it's time to reevaluate her life. She returns to the quaint English village where she grew up to take a job at the local bookshop, hoping that being surrounded by great literature will help her heal from a devastating blow. But Mina soon discovers her life is stranger than fiction - a mysterious curse on the bookshop brings fictional characters to life in lust-worthy bodies.

Mina Wilde is thrilled to be invited to a prestigious writers' retreat at Meddleworth House. Heathcliff, Morrie, and Quoth decide to come along to keep her company and indulge in some of the estate's activities. Mina is excited to get feedback on her first novel, but her dreams of writing stardom are shattered when the other writers tear her work to pieces. A little criticism never hurt anyone, right? Wrong. Their picturesque country holiday soon turns deadly when a violent storm closes in. As the writers gather around the fire to critique each other's work, the power goes out.

The Shakespeare Festival has come to the village, and all of Argleton has gone bard-crazy. Mina's excited about Nevermore being the festival's official bookstore, but a rival bookshop opens up across the green and completely cramps her style.

Victor. Torsten. Cassius – the jock, the artist, the stepbrother. The Poison Ivy Club. Ruthless. Connected. Violent. Untouchable. They rule Stonehurst Prep with an iron fist. If you want Harvard, Princeton, or Yale, they’ll get you in. Guaranteed. But they’ll take their pound of flesh first. A deal’s a deal – you give them whatever they want, and they’ll make your dreams come true.

Cassius. Victor. Torsten. My monster. My strength. My heart. Three cruel, broken kings who kissed me with poison. And woke me from my slumber. I used to think that my future lay beyond ivy-covered walls; College, a career, a white-picket fence… But now I’m bathed in blood and fire.
