American Royals meets Maxton Hall in this contemporary YA set in a
glamorous boarding school where four teens compete to inherit a
European kingdom.
For fifty years, King Leander Eldana has ruled Ashland without naming
an heir to the crown. After sending away his grandchildren to be raised
out of the public eye, it’s finally time to secure his nation’s future
by appointing one definitive heir. The best way to appraise his
successor? In the halls of Almus Terra Academy, a boarding school
infamous for breeding the world’s next generation of leaders—and liars.
Titus Eldana has always known he’d inherit Ashland’s future. Now he
must prove he has what it takes. Alaric Eldana was not raised with a
silver spoon. His secondhand clothes might not be fit for a king, but
he knows how to rule: with his fist. Emmeline Eldana only wants to
please her neglectful parents. If that means securing the crown, she
won’t hesitate to destroy anyone in her way. Sadie Aurelia has no idea
why she’s been given a chance to bring new blood to the throne. With
nothing left to lose back home, she’s ready to take it.
Filled with competition, secret alliances, enemies-to-lovers romance,
and cunning revenge, Royal Heirs Academy is a breathless, entertaining
read set in modern-day. This gossip-filled school for the global elite
is inspired by UWC of the Atlantic, which Vanity Fair has described as
"Hippie Hogwarts."
For fans of the breakout television hits Elite and Maxton Hall—The
World Between Us.
A dark family secret prompts a ghost to wreak havoc in this spooky
novel in the spirit of Mary Downing Hahn. The only life 12-year-old
Emily has ever known is the cold, unloved existence of being an
orphan. But everything changes when the Thorntons, a young couple
from London, adopt Emily, whisking her away to a new life at their
grand estate. At first, life at Blackthorn Manor is wonderful. But
as Emily explores the grounds and rooms, she stumbles upon a
mysterious girl named Kat, who appears to be similar in age, and
the two become fast friends. That's when things take a turn for the
worse. Kat seems to know a curious amount about the estate, and
strange things happen whenever she's around. In one case, Emily
narrowly avoids getting toppled by a bookcase in the library; in
another, the fire erupts in the fireplace, nearly burning Emily's
hands. It's almost as if someone -- or something -- wants Emily
dead. Emily must find out what happened to the Thorntons and, more
important, how Kat is connected to these strange goings-on at
Blackthorn Manor before it's too late!
In this modern-day retelling of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, an
angry ghost haunts a small-town road in search of revenge... When
Brianna Jenson agreed to move in with her cruel uncle Shane in
rural Pennsylvania, she didn't expect to find herself in the middle
of a terrifying town legend. Every afternoon on her walk home from
school, as the sun begins to set behind the overhanging branches of
Shadowrun Road, Brianna hears footsteps following her -- footsteps
that belong to no one. Then there's the car that races along the
narrow country road with blinding lights and almost runs her over!
That's when Brianna realizes... there's no one driving. It's almost
as if someone -- or something -- is trying to get her attention. As
Brianna investigates what happened on Shadowrun Road, she discovers
a town tragedy that has never been resolved. Can Brianna get to the
bottom of this ghostly mystery before it's too late?
