Young Adult

In war-ruled Vael, sixteen-year-old Jorium has trained his whole life to kill, but when he alone can wield the forbidden Death Arts, the power sickens him. As his people face ruin, he must balance life and death while falling for a Life Artist boy he is certain hates him.

When sixteen-year-old Lizzie, living in a retirement community with her grandmother, needs to get into college, her stress escalates first by being stalked and later being ensnared in an online attack with compromising photos--and she has no control over any of it. Wisdom awaits her among seniors.
