A co hůř, uvízla v těsné blízkosti muže, který jí zlomil srdce. Jenže v lásce a magii je dovoleno vše. Je Eira připravena na boj svého života?
uliette trávi stovky dní zatvorená v betónovej cele, ďaleko od všetkých, bez možnosti komunikácie, bez dotyku druhého človeka, zavrhnutá a sama. Pre svojich blízkych, spolužiakov a rodičov predstavuje hrozbu, ktorú je treba pred svetom ukrývať. Keď sa jej niekto dotkne, začnú sa diať veci. Čudné veci. Zlé veci. Smrteľné veci. Nikto nevie, prečo je Juliettin dotyk smrteľný, no nový systém s ňou má veľké plány – chce ju použiť ako svoju zbraň a jej ničivú silu sa chystá využiť v prospech skazeného sveta. Avšak Juliettina predstava je celkom iná. Jej dotyk je jej silou, no na to, ako s ňou naložiť príde až po tom, čo do jej opusteného života vstúpi Adam – chlapec s tetovaním vtáka na hrudi, ktorý sa po celú dobu zjavuje v Juliettiných snoch – a odhalí jej svet, o ktorom doposiaľ ani len netušila...
Dvadsaťročná Violet Sorrengailová mala vstúpiť do Pisárskeho kvadrantu a prežiť pokojný život medzi knihami a dejinami. Veliaca generálka a zhodou okolností aj jej tvrdohlavá matka ju však donútila zúčastniť sa na výbere medzi elitných dračích jazdcov. No ak ste útlejší a nižší než stovky ostatných kandidátov, smrť vám doslova dýcha na krk. Draci si totiž málokedy vyberajú "krehkých" ľudí. Tých pália na popol. Keďže drakov, čo by si vybrali Violet, je ako šafranu, väčšina kadetov by ju najradšej zniesla zo sveta, len aby zvýšili vlastné šance. Pre iných, napríklad pre mocného a nemilosrdného veliteľa krídla v Jazdeckom kvadrante Xadena Riorsona, je tŕňom v oku Violetin pôvod. Ak chce Violet prežiť, musí sa spoľahnúť na svoj dôvtip. S každým dňom je však vojna za hranicami akadémie čoraz krvavejšia, obrana kráľovstva zlyháva a počet mŕtvych narastá. Navyše sa zdá, že velitelia skrývajú hrôzostrašné tajomstvo.

Novinka od autorky romantickej série DIMILY, ktorej príbeh je zasadený do Los Angeles a Nashvillu počas dlhého a horúceho leta. Prvá časť neodolateľne návykovej a vzrušujúcej trilógie pretkanej láskou, priateľstvom, rodinnými konfliktmi a kopou romantiky. Život šestnásťročnej Mily sa zdá ako splnený sen. Meno slávneho otca ju dostane na každý večierok, kúpe sa v svetle reflektorov a bohatstve. No urobila chybu, ktorú jej médiá nevedia odpustiť. Aby si schladila hlavu, rodičia ju pošlú na druhý koniec krajiny za starým otcom. Perfektné riešenie, však? Mila si tým nie je taká istá. Desí ju, že nebude môcť stráviť prázdniny s kamošmi. A len chvíľu po prílete jej plány na pokojné leto skríži Blake. Ten totiž vie, aké je žiť pod drobnohľadom verejnosti – pozná to neustále napätie a drámu. Možno majú Mila a Blake spoločného oveľa viac ako hádky a nevraživosť na prvý pohľad. Oveľa viac než by si ktorýkoľvek z nich chcel priznať. Možno by sa tej narastajúcej náklonnosti a vzrušeniu Mila nemala vyhýbať.
