  After her perilous escape from the Janusians, Victoria Anetti is trying to live the normal life she always wanted. 
   
   
   
  She's no longer the last supersoldier in the galaxy. She's a permanent crew member aboard her uncle's ship, the Robber Barron. She's even beginning to mend her relationship with her parents. 
   
   
   
  But she can't ignore what she learned during her capture: thanks to a sample of her blood, the Janusians can take away Mahjin abilities. It's a threat to the Mahjin and the Colonies, but a thread of hope for Victoria. Not only can she live a normal life, but she can also be normal, free of the superhuman abilities she never wanted to inherit. 
   
   
   
  On their next mission, Victoria and her crew stumble upon a Janusian gunship with a lone crewmember: Lieutenant Karim, the woman who captured Victoria on her mother's behalf. With no memories of her defection, Karim requests asylum aboard the Robber Barron. But her blank mind holds deadly secrets: the Janusians' goal to neutralize the Mahjin has changed. With war inevitable, they refuse to let Colonies control the only supersoldiers in the galaxy. 
   
   
   
  And they want to use Victoria's blood to create their own.

  Until my magic awakened, I didn't know Grimstone Academy, or the world of magic, existed. Now it might just destroy me. 
   
  I've always been an outcast, plagued by visions I can't explain. I've been ripped from my quiet life and thrown into a world I never knew existed, the center of a dangerous game. 
   
  Surviving this magical academy means battling bullies, uncovering forbidden secrets, and resisting the pull of five infuriatingly irresistible men: a grumpy fae warrior who acts like he hates me as much as he protects me; a silver-tongued prince who never plays fair; a golden-hearted Irish werewolf hiding a sorrow deeper than I imagined; a serious druid who sees straight through my walls; and then there's the mysterious tattooed loner who knows my darkest truths, and tempts me with even darker promises. 
   
  With every answer, new questions and dangers emerge. A shadowy king hunts me. A deadly power stirs within me. And as my connection to these men deepens, the line between ally and enemy blurs. 
   
  One thing is certain, fate has marked me for something far more than I ever imagined. And destiny always demands a price. 
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Red Tape - Two friends do...

  Mary Amelia St. Clair was born on the 24th August 1863 in Rock Ferry, Cheshire.  
   
  Her father was a Liverpool shipowner who, after being made bankrupt, became an alcoholic and died whilst May was still a child.  The family then moved to Ilford, just outside London and, after a solitary year of education, May was required to stay home and help look after her older brothers, four of whom were suffering from fatal congenital heart disease. 
   
  Despite this difficult start May was determined to pursue a literary career. From 1896 May wrote professionally to support herself and her mother.  By the turn of the century she was producing not only poetry volumes but short stories, novels and some non-fiction.  She was an active feminist and supporter of the Suffrage Movement, her literary talents help to shred ideas that the suffragists were driven by sexual frustration because of the shortage of men.  
   
  Her 1913 novel ‘The Combined Maze’, the story of a London clerk and the two women he loves, was highly praised by many, including George Orwell, while Agatha Christie considered it one of the greatest English novels of its time. 
   
  In 1914, she volunteered to join the Munro Ambulance Corps on the Western Front in Flanders.  Although her time there was short-lived the experience was later reflected in both prose and poetry. 
   
  She published several poetry volumes as well as writing early criticism on Imagism and several poets of the movement.  Her novels were now also influenced by modernist techniques and her supernatural short stories are increasingly seen as valuable additions to the genre.  
   
  From the late 1920s, she suffered from the onset of Parkinson's disease, and her writing career was effectively over. 
   
  May Sinclair died on the 14th November 1946.  She was 83 and buried at St John-at-Hampstead's churchyard, London.
