Title: Shadow Rising (Shadow Wars Saga Book 1)
Description: The world is divided into two magical classes - the sun-class and the moon-class. For years the classes were locked in battle - the vicious Shadow Wars - until a peace treaty was drawn up a century ago. Now, the sun-class - the Faes, Celestials, and Elkie - live during the daylight hours. The moon-class - the Daimons, Weres, and Vanpari - live by night.

I'm Elkie. With my super sensitive hearing and badass bow, I live wild and free in the mountains of upstate New York. At least I did, until Mom dropped a bombshell on me. She's engaged to be married. To none-other than William Geiser, the soon to be Sun Mayor of New York City.

Without warning, I'm whisked away from the mountains to the city and enrolled at Zenith Academy, a supernatural school for the sun-class elite. I couldn't be more out of place with all the super wealthy Faes and Celestials, and I can't help the feeling something nefarious is going on...

I'm not buying Geiser's friendly routine. And what's the deal with the broodingly handsome, infuriatingly mysterious Nik Storm, a transfer from the moon class?

I'm determined to get to the bottom of it. But I get a whole lot more than I bargained for. Magic. Murder. A crush on a Vanpari. And a plot to reignite the Shadow Wars...
