  Alaska never thought she'll find herself in the middle of a family drama, yet her life depends on her ability to resolve it quickly. Witches and shifters never mixed well, but the proud thief ended deep to her eyeballs in fur. 
   
   
   
  Dimitri's inherited legacy holds more secrets than either of them expected after the original fiasco with the spell book. His father may not remember anything about Alaska, thanks to the blood magic potion, but that won't stop him from removing his son out of the way at any cost. 
   
   
   
  To make matters worse, wedding plans are in full swing that bring to light unwillingly given promise that appears set in stone. 
   
   
   
  Alaska's determination has no bounds. If she could steal someone's magic, there must be a way to steal a falsely taken oath. All she had to do is find the right spell. 
   
   
   
  If only things were that easy.

  Three haunted young men. A terrible curse. One girl who could break it... if this place doesn't break her first. 
  From the first time my parents decided that getting their next hit mattered more than keeping me fed, I learned I couldn't trust anyone—until Cade. My foster brother took me under his wing and sheltered me from the worst of the crap thrown at us.  
  So when he heads off on an exclusive scholarship and everyone around me starts denying he ever existed, Roseborne College has some explaining to do. I'm not leaving until I get answers. 
  The school I barge into isn't what I pictured. The staff claim Cade's never been here. The students glare like just looking at me offends them. The classes involve more torment than teaching, while sobs and howls fill the night. And three very different, unnervingly appealing guys—one of them a teacher—act way too invested in my arrival. 
  Some unnatural power holds this place in its grip. The more I dig, the more horrors I uncover. Finding Cade might not be my biggest problem after all. It's looking like none of us, me included, will escape this place alive. 
  *Academy of the Forgotten is the first book in a gothic paranormal trilogy with shades of Beauty and the Beast. If you love snarky heroines, damaged heroes, dark secrets galore, and reverse harem romance, look no further! Just beware: Once you enter Roseborne College, there may be no coming back...*

  Moving to the sleepy town of Havens Hallow, Massachusetts, during my senior year hadn't been part of my future plans. Not to mention the ancient house my father bought sits next to the creepiest place imaginable—a graveyard full of battered stone statues. It's a far cry from the upper-middle class neighborhood we left behind. 
   
   
   
  That wasn't the only thing I had to walk away from. My position as the star quarterback of my old team has now been replaced with a not-so-cozy spot on the sideline. With a football scholarship on the line, I can't afford to be benched. But my grades are in the trash and my mood is buried somewhere beneath the soil of my new personal nightmare. 
   
   
   
  I need help, and fast. August Sanders, a classmate in my new school, volunteers to tutor me. As much as my bruised ego hates it, I can't turn down the offer. 
   
   
   
  However, he forgot to mention a pretty important detail that sends shivers through every cell in my body. 
   
   
   
  August isn't a student. Not anymore. He's not even made of flesh and bone. And apparently I'm the only person who's been able to see him in more than three years.
