Love. Nightmares. Angels. War. Shadows, the first book in the Rephaim series, is: 'Scary, sexy, suspenseful.' Claudia Gray It’s almost a year since Gaby Winters watched her twin brother die. Her body has healed in the sunshine of a new town, but her grief is raw and constant. It doesn’t help that every night in her dreams she fights and kills hell-beasts. And then Rafa comes to town and tells her things about her brother and her life that cannot be true, things that are dangerous. Who is Rafa? Who are the Rephaim? And who is Gaby? The truth lies in the shadows of her nightmares.

The Rephaim

Shadows

â€ ̃But what if we canâ€TMt find Jude?â€TM He leans closer. His breath is warm on my ear. â€ ̃We will.â€TM â€ ̃How can you be so sure?â€TM I want to believe him so badly, but this is Rafa. The guy whoâ€TMs all action and no plan. His smile is tired, knowing. An echo of a shared past I donâ€TMt remember. â€ ̃Because Iâ€TMm not smart enough to give up, and you donâ€TMt know how to.â€TM Gaby Wintersâ€TM nightmares have stopped but she still canâ€TMt remember her old life. Still canâ€TMt quite believe she is one of the Rephaimâ€”the wingless half-angels who can shift from place to place, country to country, in the blink of an eye. That she was once the Rephaimâ€TMs best fighter. That demons exist. That Rafa has stayed. But most of all, she canâ€TMt quite believe that her twin brother, Jude, might be alive. And Gaby canâ€TMt explain the hesitancy that sidetracks the search for him, infuriates Rafa, and sends them, again, into the darkest danger.

Haze

Gaby thought her life couldn't get more complicated. She's almost used to the idea that she's not the teenage backpacker she thought she was. She can just about cope with being one of the Rephaim—a 139-year-old half-angel—whose memories have been stolen. She's even coming to grips with the fact that Jude, the brother she's mourned for a year, didn't die at all. But now Rafa—sexy, infuriating Rafa—is being held, and hurt, by Gatekeeper demons. And Gaby has to get the bitterly divided Rephaim to work together, or Rafa has no chance at all. It's a race against time—and history. And it may already be too late.

Shimmer

Gaby thought her life couldn't get more complicated. She was wrong. She's not the teenage backpacker she thought she was. She is one of the Rephaim, descended from fallen angels. The brother she thought she'd lost is alive. And the heavenly war is escalating. Now Gaby's remembered everything. But as she struggles to come to terms with her new memories, will what she knows save the people she loves . . . or doom them? If you loved Becca Fitzpatrick's HUSH, HUSH, this is the perfect book for you.

Book 4

Burn

Eighteen-year-old Julianne De Marchi is different. As in: she has an electrical undercurrent beneath her skin that stings and surges like a live wire. She can use it—to spark a fire, maybe even end a life—but she doesn’t understand what it is. And she can barely control it, especially when she’s anxious. Ryan Walsh was on track for a stellar football career when his knee blew out. Now he’s a soldier—part of an experimental privatised military unit that has identified Jules De Marchi as a threat. Is it because of the weird undercurrent she’s tried so hard to hide? Or because of her mother Angie’s history as an activist against bio-engineering and big business? It’s no coincidence that Ryan and Jules are in the same place at the same time—he’s under orders to follow her, after all. But then an explosive attack on a city building by an unknown enemy throws them together in the most violent and unexpected way. Paula Weston, author of the much-admired Rephaim series, returns with a standalone work: a futuristic thriller that is only slightly futuristic—but utterly and undeniably thrilling. Great writing, heart-burning characters, probing questions about where technology is taking us—and a plot that zips and zings like an electrical current itself. This is a great young-adult writer at the peak of her powers.
