Book Description
My mom is dead. She committed suicide. It wasn’t supposed to be this way. I was going to beat my bloodlust and go back to her. Now I have nothing except for an addiction to Kian’s blood and a twin I didn’t know about. My twin’s name is Archer, and our Colors are reactive. I’m dangerous enough on my own. With Archer, I’m worse. We drain the auras of living things. I don’t want to hurt anyone. I want to know if my feelings for Kian are more than my bloodlust. For once in my life, I want to choose.

Book Description
I gave in to my bloodlust. I almost got Kian and myself killed because of it. Monster hunters, demons, Nighshade's mysterious benefactor. There's a lot about this world I don't know, and it keeps getting worse. Kian's blood is the only thing I can stomach. Our Colors react, and he knows things about me he shouldn't. The headmaster of Nightshade Academy says she's never seen a blood sensitivity as bad as mine, which is probably a nice way of saying my bloodlust is out of control. I'm starting to think I'll never get out of here or see my mom again. But I'm not giving up. I'm going to beat this—if Kian doesn't ruin me first.

Book Description
Some people carry the blood of demons. They often appear normal. They may even be unaware of it themselves. Until the curse activates. When a monster awakens, someone usually ends up dead. But not all hope is lost. All monsters are welcome at Nightshade Academy. Eighteen-year-old Nova Ray didn't have big plans for the future. She was comfortable living life quietly and unseen with her mother, but all of that changed the night a mysterious man triggered her curse and revealed her vampire nature. Nova would have killed someone that night, maybe even her human mother, if she hadn't been found and taken to Nightshade Academy first. But her troubles are far from over. Nova's in lockdown. Nightshade Academy is supposed to rehabilitate monsters. The goal is to teach them how to control their monster natures so they can rejoin human civilization. But Nova's bloodlust is insatiable and picky. She's fixated on a star student: Kian Salazar. He wants to help her, but she can't stop thinking about drinking his blood. It's all too much. What if she kills him? If the curse consumes Nova, she'll truly be a monster. And there's no going back from that. This book contains Nightshade Academy Episodes 1-5.
