This is a fantastic YA paranormal thriller that's exclusive to the Shattered Worlds Boxed Set!
About DEATH KNOCKS: Who knew a knock at the door could tear your world apart? They don’t demand money or possessions…they want much more than that, they want your life.
Maverick is preparing for senior year: he’s no longer stuck in the “friend-zone” with the girl of his dreams, he’s looking forward to choosing the right college and being on his own, and he plans to have a blast along the way.
But a knock on the door changes all of that forever.
Maverick begins a mind-altering, life-changing journey to discover the truth—a truth that certain individuals will do anything to keep hidden.
Don't let them in!

About Miranda Hardy and Jay Noel: Miranda Hardy writes children’s literature to keep the voices in her head appeased. When she’s not in her fantasy world, she’s canoeing in alligator infested waters, or rescuing homeless animals. She goes to coffee shops to do most of her writing while drinking tea. Unable to reveal too much, she has the most boring superpower ever (hint: you have to be a close relative for it to work). She resides in south Florida with her two wonderful children, and too many animals to mention.
Find Miranda on her website, twitter, and Facebook.
Jay Noel was born on an uncharted island somewhere in the pacific and raised by elves and fairies. Okay, maybe not, but Jay was always known to be one for daydreaming.

Shattered Worlds box set special feature
Shattered Worlds Feature: RIFT by Elana Johnson!
This is a fantastic YA time travel thriller that's exclusive to the Shattered Worlds Boxed Set!
About RIFT: Seventeen-year-old Saige Phillips can’t help holding on to the hope that she’ll find Chloe, her twin who went missing five years ago. After all, Saige sees echoes of Chloe sitting in the window and skipping down the stairs. Though there’s never been any sound associated with Saige’s “hallucinations,” she’s freaked out by the breathing she hears in her bedroom. The breathing is definitely real, and it’s definitely not coming from Saige. It’s echoing through a time rift that originates in Saige’s bedroom. Then a grayed-out guy shows up, saying his name is Price and he’s from the future. He has the same blue film clinging to him that Saige has seen on Chloe, and she seizes onto the idea that her twin went through the rift. When the rift begins to show signs of overuse and instability, Price is desperate to close it before it explodes while Saige will do anything to keep it open long enough to find Chloe. In this dangerous game with time, someone’s bound to lose. Be sure to check out RIFT, available for only 99cents along with 22 other amazing science fiction, paranormal, fantasy, and dystopian stories in the Shattered Worlds Boxed Set!

Meet the authors from Shattered Worlds!
Shattered Worlds Feature: THE GUARDIAN by Elizabetta Holcomb!
This is a fantastic YA time travel/fantasy romance that's exclusive to the Shattered Worlds Boxed Set!
About The Guardian: Jareth Tremaine, the first Duke of Dover, has seen how he’s remembered in history books. Having the gift of time travel, he knows what the future holds, including who will gain the coveted title of his duchess. But, when he finally meets her face to face, he wonders what fate was thinking… Elizabet Blackwell isn’t surprised by wormholes. What shocks her is the whole new world that is veiled from reality. When Jareth uncovers the real reason for their acquaintance, she is skeptical of what a medieval knight would want in a modern girl. Somehow, her idea of a happily ever after did not include governing a league of super heroes and warriors who use time as a game of hide and seek. "This is one of those books you just love. Nothing beats a book that has a good story line, characters that you love, and a need to continue until the series is complete. I am hooked on the Duke and Duchess of Dover." ~Amazon Reader Review Be sure to check out THE GUARDIAN, available for only 99cents along with 22 other amazing science fiction, paranormal, fantasy, and dystopian stories in the Shattered Worlds Boxed Set!

Kristy Tate, one of the awesome authors in the Shattered Worlds box set!
Shattered Worlds features Kristy Tate's THE PIRATE EPISODE!
The Pirate Episode
YA Time Travel
YA Time Travel
Cambria Brandt, a senior at Norfolk High, juggles homework assignments, tennis practice, and her overprotective mother, all while struggling to conceal her crush on Dr. Fleur, her biology teacher. But one sip of the witching well water makes all her concerns disappear.
Flung into the intrigues of the American Revolutionary War, Cami discovers a have on Ile du Ciel, the private island of the pirate Captain Phillip La Fleur. Distress and suspicion soon blossom into romance, luring Cami to a life of ease she could never have imagined. But when Dr. Fleur comes in search of her, Cami finds herself torn between two men, two centuries, and two very different futures.
From a modern day New England high school to the Caribbean Islands, The Pirate Episode is a romantic adventure that proves love knows no time.
Exclusive Excerpt!
Cambria
Brandt stood in the doorway holding her tennis racquet, smiling at him in that
knowing way that he found so frustrating on an eighteen-year-old girl. She
always looked at him as if she could read his thoughts, which would be
disastrous for his position at the school if she really could.
“Ah,
Cambria, I hadn’t heard you come in.”
“I think
I left my book in here.” She looked past him and pointed to her fifth period
chair. “There it is.”
Smiling,
she moved past him, smelling earthy and sweat. The air around her moved. He
could practically feel the molecules rearranging themselves, welcoming her into
his space. Typically he didn’t notice what women—girls, he corrected
himself—wore, but he found Cambria’s too-short tennis skirt and tank top hard
to ignore.
Because
he couldn’t indulge in such thoughts about Cami—or any of his students—Joel
strode to his microscope. The bottle of water from the Witching Well sat on the
counter. He had forgotten about that. He picked it up, intending to throw it
away.
“I heard
your sister is getting married,” Cambria said, pausing beside him.
Joel
cleared his throat. “Yes.”
“And
that she’s going to be running the dress shop out of your grandmother’s house.”
“Yes,”
he repeated, adjusting his glasses so that he could see her better. Damn. Why
did she have to look like that? Long blond curly hair, damp with sweat. Flushed
skin. Shining eyes.
“I think
it’s so cool. All the girls love Delia’s Dress Shop. I can’t wait to see her
wedding dress. Celia is so talented.”
Joel
nodded, cursing himself for social ineptitude and his inappropriate thoughts. She’s a kid, he berated
himself. Get a grip.
Waving
her hand in front of her flushed face, she nodded at the water bottle in his
hand. “Can I have a drink? Do you mind?” She reached for it and her fingers
brushed his. Tingles shot up his arm.
Cambria
unscrewed the lid. “The water fountain on the courts is still broken.”
“Um,
that’s not—” Joel began.
But
Cambria didn’t stop to listen. “Don’t worry. I won’t put my lips on it,” she
said. Tipping her head back, she poured the water from the Witching Well into
her mouth.

Another author from the awesome Shattered Worlds box set!
Shattered Worlds features Ainsley Shay's PRISON OF STATUES!
Everything is colorless in Iris’ world…until she falls asleep and the nightmares begin.
Exclusive Teaser!
“Your dreams are
starting to get worse, aren’t they?” It wasn’t what I expected, but at least he
was talking. It also seemed that I didn’t have to say anything for him to know
that they were getting worse. So, I barely nodded. He lowered his head and mimicked
my gesture. “They've only just begun.
”Without looking at
me, he said, “Once, there was a fallen angel who fell in love
It was as if the
air was like glass between us, and his spoken words shattered every molecule of
breath into a million pieces.
“I wish you could see
your eyes the way I see them.” In a second flat, my face was on fire. He wasn’t
looking at me when his voice dropped to barely a whisper. “It seems I’ve tried
for millennia to forget what they look like, but it has been a battle I have
given up on.”
The class murmured,
asking Mr. Pene to repeat the word, but he didn’t have to. The isolated word
was meant for me alone, and I heard it perfectly.

About Ali Winters: Ali Winters was born and raised in the Pacific North West where she developed her love of nature, animals, and all things green. For as long as she can remember, she’s been mesmerized by the extraordinary world of books and fantasy. There has never been a time when stories were not begging to be told, either by drawing, photography, or writing. With encouragement from one of her favorite authors, she jumped in, head first, to pursue the career that had been calling to her since the day she opened her first book. She has a deep love for coffee, tea, warm blankets, dogs, creating art in any medium she can get her hands on, and family. Find Ali on her website, twitter, Facebook, instagram, BookBub, Goodreads, or Amazon.

My story in this collection is called 'The Space in Between', a magical story of love and redemption.
What if you really can fall in love with the man of your dreams?
It happens to Moira, a 20-year-old art student from Wales, when she participates in a Wicca ritual together with her brother and sister. Sitting within the ancient stone circle of Meini Hirion, she is swept away to a mythical land where she meets Hayko, a mysterious young man. Is he just a figment of her imagination or is he real, and if so, why is he stuck in that space in between life and death?
Hayko is there for a reason. Moira can feel it. He gives HER THE courage to look at her life and wonder if it's still what she wants.
