    Summary

    Ever since Cecily Herondale's brother eloped with a common woman, she has become the main guarantor for the continuance of the Herondale Estate, and her parents quickly wed her far above their station to a husband from the upper echelons of nobility. But it's always the servants that let what ought to be tightly-kept secrets loose. The murmurs do not escape her ears, nor the pitying glances—apparently her husband has only agreed to marry her to produce an heir to the Herondale Estate and then... dispose of her discretely, allowing him to make a more advantageous match and deftly claim the Herondale property as his own.

    So Cecily forges a crossroads where there should only be a single dusty path and sets out on her own, accompanied by a masked figure who refuses to reveal his face but agrees to help her find her brother. As they travel together, what seems to be budding respect and trust is restrained by the unspeakable secrets between them. Pursued by her husband's soldiers, growing dangerously close with a stranger, and carving out a space for herself in a man's world, Cecily must reckon with who she is expected to be, who she pretends to be, and who she truly is.

    Summary

    Magnus was fighting to get his newly awakened powers back under control when an unexpected guest arrived at his door. Alec Lightwood, the beyond gorgeous man he met at the Institute's party last weekend, came to ask Magnus out on a date! What was Magnus going to do? And what was his magic going to do? It was bound to be a first date to remember!

    From chapter six:
    Alec pulled Magnus back into the kiss and wrapped his arms around him. There was no urgency or fire within their contact, only soft and languid presses of their lips and breathy moans as they melted into each other. Alec was solid, muscled, and firm beneath Magnus, an intriguing contrast to the tender flesh of his lips and slick touch of his tongue as Magnus deepened the kiss. Alec's fingers were tangled in his hair, tugging on the strands with just the right amount of force, sending little waves of pleasure-pain along his spine. Even with all of the contact, the sweet intimacy, Magnus' magic stayed at a low simmer inside of him. Maybe his magic really was under control.

    Summary

    When Alec Lightwood moves from New York to Alicante, a small town with a population of less than 6,000 in Idris County, he thinks that he’ll be facing nothing but dull days and conservative people. However, he’s pleasantly surprised to meet Magnus Bane, the owner of a very progressive bookstore. It doesn’t take them more than a conversation to feel that they click.

    Despite all of this unexpected and new-found happiness, Alec has the constant feeling that someone—or something—is watching him from the shadows.

    At first, it is simple details; it’s strange noises, knocks and scratches, and bad smells. But then it’s nightmares, and they become more and more real. Soon enough, he starts seeing a humanoid shadow getting closer and closer to him as the days go by, and he doesn’t know how to stop it.

    How are you supposed to tell people that a demonic being with an insatiable craving for human suffering has latched onto your soul?

    Little does he know that Magnus will be the final piece of that puzzle.

    Summary

    "Take a risk with me, Mr Carstairs."
    "I have enough risk in my life with Will. Why would I take this one?"
    "Because I can assure you that it's worth it."

    One thing that Jade Littlethorn has in common with William Herondale is the fact that they are both drawn in by the idea of risk. One thing that Jade Littlethorn shares with Jem Carstairs is that sometimes they can see that the risk will only have little reward. One big difference is that she knows which risks to take and which ones she thinks isn't worth it.

    Being courted by a dying man was a risk she wanted to take. Leaving her a widow is a risk that Jem is completely against.

    It's all a matter of compromise.

    Summary

    “A were-cat is never lost. We are where something important is to take place, because we’re supposed to be.”

    Were-cats are good luck by shadowhunters' standards, so when a black, jewelry covered cat appears at the Institute, Alec pays him his respects. He needs it, considering the messes Clary and Jace keep dragging him in.

    Alec certainly doesn't expect the were-cat to take a liking to him, and even less to start flirting with him...

    Summary

    "I dare you to get matching tattoos with a stranger."

    It starts with truth or dare (or maybe when Magnus catches a slightly tipsy Alec before he falls).
    It’s the story of two people who love animals and hope their cats will get along too, because they’re slowly falling in love. The course of surprising dates and thoughtful gestures : two strangers, lovers who haven’t yet met.

    The stories are true...but the TMI Gang doesn’t remember their lives as Shadowhunters. They think they are just the stories that Magnus writes to amuse his children. Only Church the Cat (still alive, still supernatural) remembers everything and he slips them into Magnus’ mind.
