Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros

The third book in the Empyrean series. As enemies gain traction, Violet Sorrengail goes beyond the Aretian wards in search of allies.

La guerre prend un tournant massif mais le plus grand risque vient désormais de l”intérieur. Plus amoureuse que jamais, Violet est bien décidée à affronter les ténèbres.

Elite ballerina Allie Rousseau is no stranger to pressure. With her mother”s eyes always watching, perfection was expected, no matter the cost. But when an injury jeopardises all she”s sacrificed for, Allie returns to her summer home to heal and recover. But the memories she”s tried to forget rush in and threaten to take her under. As a Coast Guard rescue swimmer, Hudson Ellis knows that hesitation can mean the difference between life and death. He”s always prided himself on being in the right place at the right time, especially when it came to Allie Rousseau … until the night he left for basic. After the biggest regret of his life, the secrets he keeps mean he can never be with the one woman he wants more than his next breath. When Hudson”s niece shows up on Allie”s doorstep, desperate to find her birth mother, Allie finds herself in an unimaginable position. Allie and Hudson”s past and present might be endlessly complicated. The thread that tied them to each other all those years ago may have unravelled, but the truth could pull them back together, or drive them apart forever.

“Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College–Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet”s already wondering how she”ll get through. It”s not just that it”s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it”s designed to stretch the riders” capacity for pain beyond endurance. It”s the new vice commandant, who”s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is-unless she betrays the man she loves. Although Violet”s body might be weaker and frailer than everyone else”s, she still has her wits–and a will of iron. And leadership is forgetting the most important lesson Basgiath has taught her: Dragon riders make their own rules. But a determination to survive won”t be enough this year. Because Violet knows the real secret hidden for centuries at Basgiath War College–and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.” —

Be careful what you wish for… Lt. Grayson Masters is focused on graduating the Apache helicopter course, and the last thing he needs is his gorgeous new roommate Samantha Fitzgerald distracting him.

Having just been expelled from college, Sam has no business digging for Grayson”s secrets while she”s hiding her own, but that doesn”t stop her from trying to tear down his walls. Each barrier she busts through drops one of her own, though, and she”s not prepared for the truth: another woman laid claim to Grayson”s heart long ago. Falling in love is something neither Grayson nor Sam can afford, and when that line is crossed and secrets are exposed, they”ll learn that sometimes it”s the answered prayers that will put you through hell.

Armentrout Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from #1 New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Yarros Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away…because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter—like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant. She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise. Yet, with every day that passes, the war outside grows more deadly, the kingdom”s protective wards are failing, and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret. Friends, enemies, lovers. Everyone at Basgiath War College has an agenda—because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die. The Empyrean series is best enjoyed in order.
