Titles By Shannon Mayer
You Don’t Choose The Academy. The Academy Chooses You.
"This book is Harry Potter meets the Hunger Games in a bold twist on a classic magical young adult adventure."
Jaymin Eve, Bestselling Author of Supernatural Academy
The Shadowkiller is back.
And he is hunting me down like a dog in the streets of New York City using every tool and ally he has—including people I once trusted.
I have never been so alone in my life, and yet if I turn to my friends that puts a target on their backs too. Which means I have to keep running.
So, I do what I know, and I set myself to finding the trail of breadcrumbs that will lead me to the one who is still pulling the strings.
Frost. A Chameleon just like me. Just like the Shadowkiller. Worse, she’s seeking out my friends to pick them off, one by one. To drain their lives in order to feed hers.
To stop her, I have to find her—a task easier said than done in a city this size.
What I don’t expect to find is a truth that this world and its secrets run far deeper, and far darker than I could have ever suspected.
But is any of that going to stop me?
Not a chance.
Shadowspell Academy novels offer delicious cliffhangers that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final book - Shadowspell Academy: Year of the Chameleon (Book 6)
Torn between a missing child, a friend in danger, and an FBI agent on her tail, she has no choice but to take help from a dangerous quarter.
“My name is Rylee, and I am a Tracker.”
When children go missing, and the Humans have no leads, I’m the one they call. I am their last hope in bringing home the lost ones. I salvage what they cannot.
Underestimating demons is a bad idea, and it’s a mistake that may cost me not only my own life but the life of a missing child.
If I can swallow my pride, and allow Agent O’Shea to help me find a way to deal with the demon, we might be able to save the child.
With this salvage, it’s a race against time, a test of trust, and a temptation that I'm doing my damnedest to ignore.
If only swallowing my pride was that easy and demons weren't so damn difficult, this week would be a helluva a lot easier.

You Don’t Choose The Academy. The Academy Chooses You.
Being accepted into an elite school of magic, monsters, and assassins was not my idea of higher education. But here I am, fighting my way through the Culling Trials to claim my right to be taught.
As if the gauntlet-type physical and mental tests aren’t enough, people are going missing.
People that are my friends.
In a dangerous world where no one is as they seem, the golden rule is simple: Trust no one. They think we should just look out for ourselves. That we should leave the fallen behind and ask no questions.
They clearly think we’re idiots. I got this far by trusting my instincts, and I’m not going to back down now.
Those kids won’t be left to die.
Not on my watch.
Shadowspell Academy novels offer delicious cliffhangers that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final book - Shadowspell Academy: Year of the Chameleon (Book 6)
As the boogeyman to the underworld, Nix isn't afraid of dying.
Yet this time, it's not about dying. It's about escaping with her mind intact.
I thought I'd finally stepped away from the madness of the underworld, away from the Abnormals, away from all those who would do me and those I love harm.
The world though had different plans.
And now I'm trapped, not only physically, but inside my head.
Those who have me caged say none of it was real.
That I'm not a highly trained assassin of Abnormals.
That I have no family. My children do not exist.
That there is nothing supernatural about this world.
If they are right, then I've been crazy all along. I've been stuck inside of my head all these years, living a fantasy.
If they are right I am not the legendary Phoenix.
If they are wrong . . .then that means there is a new game afoot.
Then there will be hell to pay and the fires that burn within me will consume them all.

You Don’t Choose The Academy. The Academy Chooses You.
I had no idea how those words would change my life. Or how they’d changed my life already…
Until the day the most dangerous man I’ve ever met waltzed onto my farm and left us a death sentence.
In an invitation.
My younger brother has been chosen for the prestigious, secret magical school hidden within the folds of our mundane world. A place so dangerous, they don’t guarantee you’ll make it out alive.If he doesn't go our entire family will be killed.
It’s the same invitation my older brother received three years ago—the same place he mysteriously died.
The academy has already killed one sibling. I’ll be damned if they take another.
I do the only thing an older sister can: chop off my hair, strap on two bras to flatten the girls, and take my brother’s place.
Magic and monsters are real. Assassins are coming for me, and the dead are prone to rise. What’s a girl faking it as a boy supposed to do? That’s right—beat the academy at its own game.
Or die trying.

To save my son, I would give up my soul. To survive this journey and stop those who face us I may have to do just that.
My son is waiting for me to bring him home, to rescue him from the horrors he’s faced on his own. I won’t take the chance I will find him only to fail him again. Which means I must unearth a way to kill his captor, a man who is immortal. A man who made a deal with the devil to attain his power. As it stands there is only one way to end that monster’s life. A way that is far from simple.
With a pair of guns strapped to my hips, and an ally at my side, I will finally face down the evil that created me, crossing the world to do so.
I can feel death stalking us, waiting for us to slip up. But I am no stranger to death, and I will face him too if I must to save my boy.
To bring him home.
If you thought I was deadly before, it's nothing to what I will bring in this final round.

One day I’m married, living in Seattle, and magic isn’t real.
The next, I’m divorced and living in the guest room of my ex’s hotter- than-sin cousin’s place in Savannah . . . and talking to an animated skeleton named Robert.
I have to admit, Robert isn’t my worst date.
At forty-one, I didn’t think I’d be starting over. But I’ll be damned if my ex thinks I’m down and out because he pulled a fast one on me.
When a job comes my way that offers me a chance to use my childhood training in the shadow world, I take it—I need the money more than I care about my sanity.
It’s dangerous.
I have to embrace the magic and dark of my past.
And I need Advil to keep me going.
But those who’d hold me back better sit up and take notice, because a new woman is in town, and she’s not about to be counted out by anyone.
Even if she does groan when she rolls out of bed in the morning.

War is coming, and she must decide how badly she wants
the vampires on her side. Or as a thorn in her side
"My name is Rylee, and I am a Tracker."
When children go missing, and the Humans have no leads, I'm the one they call. I am their last hope in bringing home the lost ones. I salvage what they cannot.
Bringing my allies together as war approaches is my number one concern. But that means I have to play nice with a vampire who is blackmailing me. If I don’t, I’m screwed and my family is dead.
But I don't play nice. And I have a backup plan. Kinda.
Throw in some new weapons being developed that work around supernaturals and I have more problems than I can handle on my own.
Good thing I have a kick ass team.
Even if they are on the other side of the world from me.

"My name is Rylee, and I am a Tracker."
When children go missing, and the Humans have no leads, I'm the one they call. I am their last hope in bringing home the lost ones. I salvage what they cannot.
O’Shea is AWOL, and Tracking him is proving to be harder than I expected.
Not to mention the small fact that I have the Beast of Bodmin Moor chasing me across Europe, in a race against the odds, and my life as the prize.

"Trackers, witches, vampires, Shaman, harpies, werewolves and other shifters, Guardians, dragons, gargoyles, Druids, ogres, necromancers, demons, I’m not sure we’ve been introduced yet to everything in Mayer’s world. Have some tissues ready when reading this book; you’re going to need them since the author does a really good job of pulling the reader into Rylee’s head and we’re in for an emotional ride with both heartbreak and joy . . . expect some surprises!" -Top 1000 Vine Voice Reviewer
I thought that going after those who’d destroyed my life would help me move on. At the very least, that it would ease the thirst for vengeance singing in my blood. I was wrong.
With my guns at my side, I continue to search for ways to punish the one man who took everything from me. The man who killed my family. Death is far too good for him.
I want to make him suffer, to take from him everything he loves.
To that end, I need a code breaker, one who deals in magical glyphs. But in the hunt for her, I discover there are far more secrets to my life, and my blood, than I ever could have imagined.
Secrets that are burning their way out of the past and the shadows.
A promise dangled in front of me by the enemy of my enemy is too sweet to ignore. And I will cast all my cards on the table for the one chance that the promise he offers is true.
That my son is alive.
God help those who stand between my boy and me.

Nothing like setting off catastrophic events to mix things up,
on a salvage for a child like no other
"My name is Rylee, and I am a Tracker."
When children go missing, and the Humans have no leads, I'm the one they call. I am their last hope in bringing home the lost ones. I salvage what they cannot.
Crossing into Ogre country is dangerous when you're a polite, respectful gal.
Which means we all know I'm in for a wild ride, despite the new back up I've brought along.
Even when things start to go sideways, and enemies close on us from every side, I still believe we have the upper hand.
How very blind can one person be when it comes to a salvage for a missing child?
I'm about to find out.
