Emily Trigger and the Special Forces, the Prodigal Suns have been chasing the God of Magic and being chased by zombies all around the world and it's all come down to this. The final showdown. At last. They think they have all the pieces together. The right people, an ancient goddess, and as much magical and good old-fashioned firepower to either lock Heka away for good or end him once and for all. Of course, Heka has a few things up his bony sleeve as well. There are a few benefits to being the old ruler of magic. You can create your own mercenaries to protect you.

Major Leah Morgan is a tactical genius and fearless leader who's about to have her limits tested, in more ways than one. The major is tasked with leading the Legacy Operations Command (USLC) to confront supernatural threats from America's past. Her first mission takes the team to Boston's Old North Church, where a Revolutionary War-era mummy is about to awaken. A vital relic has been stolen, and Leah must lead her team into the hidden vaults of history to recover it before the undead spy rises again.

Coming from a family of all boys who play hockey, all I ever wanted was to be seen by my dad. When he offers me an opportunity to intern at his startup sports magazine, I jump at the chance to impress him. It’s not until after I’m given my first assignment that I find out the catch. I must write a hit piece on his rival team. It shouldn’t be too bad. It’s not like I’m friends with these guys. Enter Noah Miller, AKA the team flirt.

When an ambitious TV treasure hunter unearths a hidden British redoubt near Yorktown, he believes he's struck gold—both figuratively and literally. But as the excavation begins, reports of eerie voices, sudden accidents, and chilling apparitions start to surface. What should have been a routine historical dig quickly spirals into something far more sinister. Captain Leah Morgan and her team at the Legacy Operations Command are deployed to investigate the disturbances, only to discover that the excavation has awakened something ancient and angry.

Idina Moorfield is a new kind of magical with a dark and twisty lineage. Any other combat engineer in the 82nd Airborne Division would be proud of how far Idina's come, but the visions and voices in her mind are only getting worse. When it affects her work, Idina gets transferred to a new unit—a unit of misfits with their own problems. But sometimes, what seems like the worst move ever, can turn out to be the beginning of something great. Who says outcasts can't be heroes?

Serenity Ward must come to terms with her role in Kaycie's flawed society. The Establishment is corrupt, but there are those pushing for change from within. Division isn't exclusive to the elite group, though. The islands splinter in the wake of the uprising as webs of lies are untangled.

Idina Moorfield is officially a soldier in the army—with a little extra firepower. Her dark and magical little secret. Can she keep the new powers under control? Jump School may be her undoing. It takes focus, determination, and steely courage to face her fears and jump out of a C-130 aircraft from 1,200 feet. That's exactly what brings Idina's abilities forward at inconvenient moments.

Sonya Pope is pragmatic and has no time for setbacks, so when she arrives at her elopement to find her fiancé wants to break up, she uses the flight home to reprioritize. But when a woman on the plane has a medical emergency, she jumps to action. Unfortunately, so does the cocky, almost-paramedic two rows back. Ben "Trav" Travis totally got to that patient first, but the cranky nurse with the pretty brown eyes made a big show of taking charge. Sure, he might be one rotation away from actually being certified, but he has real-life experience. The kind he wouldn't wish on anyone.

Dani Petrillo's friends are settling down faster than she can escape her latest one-night stand. After her best friend's wedding, she decides it's time to leave the single life behind and find true love. She joins a dating site that makes a bold promise—Eight Dates to Your Soulmate—if you can follow their dating bootcamp rules. The first one? No sleeping with any of your matches until the eight dates are over. Sure, she wants to find a good guy, but she also knows that no sex for months isn't going to work for her. Luckily, she's always been good at bending the rules.

Zombies to the left of the Prodigal Suns, Ancient Gods of Magic to the right. The only place the zombies don't seem to be are marching right in front of them. Not yet anyway. The trek into enemy territory is a lot harder, with Heka's zombies looking for prey, hunting them at every turn. Even with a little magic on their side. No matter. Nothing is going to stop our highly trained heroes. When there's a job to do that no one else wants, the Prodigal Suns, special forces rise and shine and show up.

Heka, the ancient god of magic, has grand plans and thanks to Dr. Semenov, Heka knows exactly where to start. Black-market weapons manufacturers and dealers. And his plans aren't for the good of the world. Meanwhile, Emily Trigger and the Prodigal Suns are impatiently waiting for a spell to work so they can track down Heka. They're using the time to figure out the mechanics of Emily's new magic and how they can use it.

There's a demigod on a quest for vengeance who is hunting Emily for her new magic. If Heka gets his way, her team will be nothing but collateral damage. The god of magic has eyes and ears everywhere, watching Emily. Heka's network of human prey form a secret undead surveillance system. And they could be literally anyone. Not good.

The trail has turned cold, and the Prodigal Suns have to wait for a new sign of Heka to pop up and begin the chase again. When it does, it will lead them on a mission to the other side of the world. A few of Heka's zombie followers have popped up in Turkey and Emily Trigger and the rest of her unit are sent out on the trail. Or so they think.

Emily Trigger and the Prodigal Suns are following Heka's calling card. The trail of injured and dead bodies is a dark trail leading them to the ancient god of magic. Not before a whole lot of searching for Emily and her new unit. While the Prodigal Suns wait for new intel on Heka's whereabouts, Emily finds herself faced with a few new threats of her own, and her newly altered magic suddenly doesn't seem so accidental anymore. There's a rhyme and a reason to her electrifying new abilities-somewhere-and Emily needs to figure out what that is if she wants to stop having so many close calls.

Emily Trigger is on a mission with her elite team. The Prodigal Suns are on the hunt for Heka, the ancient marauding god of magic. Someone helped Heka escape his long sleep in the Amazon jungles, and the old god wants to make up for lost time. First on his list was getting back some of his power. Next, gather even more power. Step number three: Rebuild his army of mindless, empty, zombies, and what better place to start than with a nearby village of innocent Amazonian locals?

Falling in love is easy. Finding the right guy to spend happily ever after with... that's the hard part. But I have a foolproof plan. I'm taking the tropes that work in romance books and applying them to my love life. Only one bed? Never fails. Caring for someone when they're sick? A classic. Who did this to you? Seals the deal every single time. So long, loneliness. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. But the more I try to force romance, the more feelings naturally progress with the one man who's off limits: Walker Collins, the guy I've had a secret crush on since 7th grade.

Confession: I'm attracted to my student's dad. Let me give you Tyler Dixon's resume: thoughtful, manly, father of the year, widower, ridiculously attractive (basically the opposite of a dad bod). This might sound like good news for someone like me—someone who dreams of getting married and becoming a mom—but it's not. Getting involved with a parent is grounds for immediate removal at my school, and right now, my fragile heart can't handle being fired.

Ben and I are just friends. We've tried to be more, but it never works. There's no chemistry between us. At least that's the story I tell everyone. Truth is, I'm pining for Ben. HARD. Like Taylor Swift, You Belong With Me, hard. I don't know what happened. Suddenly, his casual touch is fire, and his easy smile stops my heart. But Ben has put me in the friend zone. Permanently. His supermodel girlfriend and him setting me up with a pro football player confirm this.

Tiny Little Lie #1: I want the new resort in Turks and Caicos to open on schedule. Tiny Little Lie #2: I'm not falling for Luke McKenna. Unfortunately, those tiny little lies snowballed into something bigger. Much bigger. Now I'm stuck. It sounds bad. But I'm not a bad person. I'm doing the right thing...I think. I'm telling myself I'm a superhero in heels, saving people I care about.

I got dumped. And not by just some woman. By the love of my life—a heart-crushing blow. Now, we're going to be together all weekend at my friend's destination wedding. It's no problem. Not awkward at all. I've had two months to construct a heart of stone. Seeing Remi again will be easy. The hard part? Pretending like I'm not still in love with her when really, all I want is a second chance.
