A vampire and a werewolf who never fit in. A witch whose spells don't always work as planned. And a mysterious new guy who's hiding something. Together they will discover who they're meant to be...

Hidden from the human world, Shadow Falls is a secret camp for teens with supernatural powers. But for four very different teens, it's much more than just a camp-it's where their destinies will unfold.

Independent and strong-willed Della Tsang didn't believe in vampires...until she became one. Chase Tallman is the newest member of Shadow Falls, but what made him into the sexy, mysterious vampire he is today? And what led him to Della Tsang? For Miranda Kane, magic has always been something she's struggled with-until she finally has a chance to prove herself a witch to be reckoned with. And for Fredericka Lakota, the one guy who challenges her the most will lead her to the life she's always wanted.

C. C. Hunter's New York Times bestselling Shadow Falls series captured hearts all over the world. Now available in print for the first time, these enchanting novellas will reveal a side of the camp that you've never seen before...and live in your heart forever.

I've been thinking about reading this series

 for awhile so when I got a chance to read this 

collection of novellas from the series, I jumped 

at it as I thought it would be a good chance to get 

a quick feel for the series. I'm always looking for a 

good YA series that I can recommend for 

my daughter to keep in her classroom library.

While I'm primarily a  vampire lover, you get 

werewolves, fae, witches and vampires in 

this series. I like that you get a peek behind the 

curtain to see what's going on at the camp. 

An excellent addition to a series that over 75% 

of the readers have rated 5 stars and fascinating 

enough to send me to my TBR shelf to dig out 

my copies so I can indulge in the rest  of the series 

and pass on my copies to my daughter's classroom.
