So when she receives an invitation to Cortherstone, from the duke himself, she is shocked her family forces her to go. How could she go to the very house where her sister died? And does the duke have the same plans for her? Escape attempts, battle of wills, and a declaration of war are not enough to keep Emma safe from Cortherstone. As the days pass, Emma wonders if the duke really is the man everyone says he is. Some days he is kind and thoughtful, and others he is cold and distant.

When an author gives up on a story and throws it away, the characters that were created still live, and they want their ending. The Forgotten Library holds these neglected books until it chooses the right person to help finish what the author had started. Josephine Audley loves traveling into books. When a book calls her on her sixteenth birthday, she thinks it will be like every other book. But this time is different. This time isn't as easy. This time the book preys on her fears, and her darkest nightmares. This time her heart helplessly falls for a character destined for another. This time she's afraid she won't make it back out. If she dies inside a book, her blood is written on those pages. And she can't get out.

Four - Some things lost are not lost forever.Sometimes they're only misplaced.Five - Evil is not confined by time. And this evil has traveled to find me.One week ago, I didn't know time could move backwards.One week ago, I didn't know anything existed behind the glass of the mirror.One week ago, I didn't know-couldn't know-that when I finally found light, I unwillingly welcomed darkness

"Hackwith's poignant, imaginative series sends readers on an amazing journey, with profound prose that will capture hearts and minds."* To save the Library of the Unwritten in Hell, former librarian Claire and her allies may have to destroy it first. Claire, rakish Hero, angel Rami, and muse-turned-librarian Brevity have accomplished the impossible by discovering the true nature of unwritten books. But now that the secret is out, in its quest for power Hell will be coming for every wing of the Library. To protect the Unwritten Wing and stave off the insidious reach of Malphas, one of Hell’s most bloodthirsty generals, Claire and her friends will have to decide how much they’re willing to sacrifice to keep their vulnerable corner of the afterlife. Succeeding would mean rewriting the nature of the Library, but losing would mean obliteration. Their only chance at survival lies in outwitting Hell and writing a new chapter for the Library. Luckily, Claire and her friends know how the right story, told well, can start a revolution. *Library Journal (starred review)
