Just a story of course, a fairy tale, one Mira had stopped believing in when she was young—just like she stopped believing in the idea of her mom returning, after she up and left without a trace when she was only thirteen.

Mira is grown up now, starting freshman year at the nearby Lakeland University. College feels normal, exactly the thing she’s been craving most... except for one particular classmate: Julian Santos, a mysterious boy with long hair, golden eyes, and a coldness that seems directed exclusively at Mira for reasons she can’t understand and he won’t explain.

When Mira receives an unaddressed letter from her mother, she’s told the world isn’t as it seems. She suspects her mom might be telling the truth when she stumbles across strange animal tracks on a hiking trail, and when she’s miraculously saved from a twenty foot drop by the one and only, Julian Santos.

The problem? Julian would have had to jump the length of the cliff to catch her, making him incredibly fast and strong beyond belief. When she confronts him about this, he denies everything.

But when a Blood Moon rises, Mira soon finds herself caught in the middle of an ancient, magical war, with Julian on the other side of the line. She discovers there’s much more truth to the old town legends than she could ever have anticipated—and her family’s historic role in it will change her world forever.

BLOOD MOON is a dark and thrilling, intensely romantic ride, a fresh take on a werewolf love story for a new generation of paranormal romance readers, and is the first book in a series. It is set against a high-stakes paranormal backdrop—a world ripe with secret identities, rich supernatural lore, and a forbidden romance... that comes with a deadly bite.","format",{"_127":80,"_33":81,"_192":193,"_194":64},"publisher","Page Street YA","page_count",384,"duration","published_date","September 9, 2025","pub_date","September 9","isbn","9798890032294","asin","B0CZWLLPF6","hex_code","#280808","language","English","purchase_links",[],"playlist_links",[],"cover","https://cdn.blackauthored.com/books/9763i/7dfa49d9-8a6c-40d3-81d0-5efb947e3d1e/1789429007.jpg","thumb","https://img.blackauthored.com/?preset=poster_thumb&image=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.blackauthored.com%2Fbooks%2F9763i%2F7dfa49d9-8a6c-40d3-81d0-5efb947e3d1e%2F1789429007.jpg","user_review","type","print","audio","Blood Chronicles","6784986c-cded-45a3-a7d8-e43f141276aa","order",{"_127":199,"_33":116,"_161":200,"_201":-5,"_202":-5,"_203":40,"_204":205,"_206":47},"5ce0a52a-6ee5-4bbd-b048-25fda0a3bf3a","337-britney-s-lewis","biography","image","books_count","roles",[207],"in_catalog","author","01942d24-fe26-4702-a28e-ad7d8ea9ab61",13060,"3.22",9,[],[232],"An Academy for Liars","2836e8e4-a6b3-416a-8379-9a66d5470af6",2024,"Sep 2024","2024-09-17","13904-an-academy-for-liars","A student will find that the hardest lessons sometimes come outside the classroom.

Lennon Carter’s life is falling apart.

Then she gets a mysterious phone call inviting her to take the entrance exam for Drayton College, a school of magic hidden in a secret pocket of Savannah. Lennon has been chosen because—like everyone else at the school—she has the innate gift of persuasion, the ability to wield her will like a weapon, using it to control others and, in rare cases, matter itself.

After passing the test, Lennon begins to learn how to master her devastating and unsettling power. But despite persuasion’s heavy toll on her body and mind, she is wholly captivated by her studies, by Drayton’s lush, moss-draped campus, and by her brilliant classmates. But even more captivating is her charismatic adviser, Dante, who both intimidates and enthralls her.

As Lennon continues in her studies her control grows, and she starts to uncover more about the secret world she has entered into, including the disquieting history of Drayton College, and the way her mentor’s tragic and violent past intertwines with it. She is increasingly disturbed by what she learns. For it seems that the ultimate test is to embrace absolute power without succumbing to corruption... and it's a test she's terrified she is going to fail.",{"_127":80,"_33":81,"_192":193,"_194":64},"Ace","September 17, 2024","September 17","9780593638309","0593638301","#c8b381",[],[],"https://cdn.blackauthored.com/books/13060i/2836e8e4-a6b3-416a-8379-9a66d5470af6/1791915412.jpg","https://img.blackauthored.com/?preset=poster_thumb&image=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.blackauthored.com%2Fbooks%2F13060i%2F2836e8e4-a6b3-416a-8379-9a66d5470af6%2F1791915412.jpg",{"_127":233,"_33":115,"_161":234,"_201":-5,"_202":-5,"_203":160,"_204":235,"_206":47},"e1c072c0-1023-42d3-845c-f23d35741ea2","448-alexis-henderson",[207],"1a053eb6-ba72-421a-8255-3bc703b241dc",13780,"4.57",7,[],[259],"Ace of Spades Sneak Peek","69c7a192-7c0e-4fd8-a0e7-dc8e2adeee24",2021,"Mar 2021","2021-03-05","14740-ace-of-spades-sneak-peek","Download a FREE sneak peek of Ace of Spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé.
