Georgia Hamilton is not pretty. Her complexion is not bright, and her figure is not elegant. Her less than intriguing eyes are hidden behind glasses, and her nose is often stuck in either a book or her own writings. Long used to her mother's unfeeling comparisons between her and her younger, beautiful sister Evangelina, Georgia knows she is not meant for greatness. With a sharp tongue and a head full of witticisms, however, she bears the pain of being unnoticed with a satirical view toward the society that continuously dismisses her.When the rich and incredibly handsome Mr. Garrett arrives in their small country town of Barchester, Georgia expects the same outcome as everyone else; he will fall in love with Evangelina because the most handsome of men deserves the most handsome of women. Everything according to nature falls into place as Mr. Garrett frequently calls at the Hamilton Estate, and, as Evangelina is often away from home, Georgia is thrown into his company. Unblind to Mr. Garrett's many attractions but believing he could never fall for someone like her, Georgia is far from the simpering young ladies Mr. Garrett is used to, and an unexpected friendship soon forms between them.With a clandestine correspondence and lover of her own, Georgia has never felt happier. But a secret her father has been hiding for several weeks turns her expectations upside down. Disappointed at every turn and slighted everywhere else, Georgia is determined to prove she is more than her appearance. But in a vain society where appearances are everything, what can a plain young woman expect?

One hundred years in the future, everything is perfect; there is no crime, no unexpected death, and, supposedly, no fear. Vienna and Beckham, impressionable and ambitious twins, live in a utopian world where the government has discovered a way to control illness, disease, and misconduct. Yet, to stem overpopulation, much like the necessary pruning of ivy, the government of Carnot sends out letters to its citizens each month randomly selecting people to die. After their father's suspicious death, the twins start to question how random these letters truly are. A series of encounters with the so-called heir and a quest to find truth reveals that the government may control more than meets the eye. Can they bring together unlikely allies and restore Carnot?

Will she and her friends succeed in fulfilling the prophecy?

The Coven of the Nameless is a brotherhood of assassins, mercenaries, and spies living on the border of the Eternal Realm. Regarding themselves above the ordinary people of the realm, and, therefore, its protector, they recruit orphaned, vulnerable, or otherwise lost children at the most impressionable age. Stripping them of their names, the Nameless subject these children to rigorous training and self-discipline until the day they are given a title-a title that describes their essence. To most, it is an honor. To some, it is a painful reminder that they are forgotten.The Tigress has always been the latter. A well-respected and sought-after assassin, The Tigress never fails to mention she doesn''t have a name, but a title. Found by the Nameless when she was no older than four, she was raised and trained to kill. Now, after almost twenty years, she travels the realm moving from contract to contract successfully. However, she wants only one thing-to find out the truth about her past. With nothing more than a handed-down necklace and dreams of a horrific event to guide her, she feels there is something that the coven has failed to tell her about who she is and where she came from. With war looming on the horizon and a prophecy on the verge of being fulfilled, The Tigress learns that the truth only raises more questions.
