Allyson fights acne, not trolls. As an inhaler-carrying member of the asthma society, she just wants to meet the father who turned her mother into a paranoid, move-across-the-nation freak. Now she's trying to fit in at yet another school, but for the first time in her life, she has a best friend, Beth. When Allyson accidentally spits fire at kidnappers in the mall, she realizes why her father isn't in the picture: she's half dragon. Her acne? Emerging scales. Her asthma? The side effects of her dragon's fire breath. Instead of freaking out, unflappable Beth reveals her own troll heritage and explains how things work with the supernatural creatures hiding within the modern world of smartphones and skyscrapers. When trolls kidnap a unicorn, Beth gets blamed. Allyson is determined to prove Beth's innocence and keep her friend off the unicorn chopping block. When they start looking for the kidnappers, they get a call from the last person they expect: Allyson's father. He tries to warn them off, but he's been put under a spell by the kidnappers to keep the victims from escaping. Nothing short of death can stop him. Now Allyson must choose between killing the father she's always dreamed of, or letting her best friend die for a crime she didn't commit.

Acne, Asthma, And Other Signs You Might Be Half Dragon

Before Tessa can confess her feelings to her long-time crush, he beats her to the punch and confesses his love - for her best friend, Maria. Missing the crush of her dreams and her stag wingman for prom, Tessa's on the prowl to make it a night to remember, and for more than the humiliation. Determined to not be the only dateless girl at the prom in Small Town USA, she asks the new guy. He has all the qualifications of a fun date: polite, mysterious, pulse - but the way Sean talks about magic like it's real could ruin the illusion. But desperate times call for desperate dates. To make matters awkward, Maria insists on double-dating for the pre-prom dinner. When a wizard shows up and kidnaps Maria, things go from jealous to deadly before the cummerbunds hit the floor. He's mistaken Tessa's friend for a powerful mage whose blood could help him conquer his world, but he's got the wrong girl. Using the wrong blood wouldn't make Maria any less dead, and Tessa has no plans to let some whack-job villain from another dimension murder her best friend. Working with Sean, she tracks the wizard to his home, a land filled with strange creatures, stranger customs, and a five-hundred year grudge match among three nations ready to explode into all-out war. Tessa's starting to think she has a chance against the wizard so long as she has Sean by her side, but his kind words and sweet smile aren't what they seem. He's the wizard's son.
