    He was my best friend. Now he’s determined to ruin me. 
    Not if I ruin him first. 
    I thought my career as a violinist was lost forever. 
    When I’m awarded a scholarship to Manderley Academy, 
    I have one last chance to make my mark. 
    Too bad my new beginning comes with strings attached. 
    Three cruel, depraved, and beautiful strings: 
    Titus – a monster on the cello, a demon between the sheets. 
    Ivan – the silent, terrifying violinist with the haunted gaze. 
    Dorien – the dark-eyed devil who once held me close, 
    And now wants to see me burn. 
    Rich. Arrogant. Cruel. 
    They won’t have the poor little charity case ruining their fun. 
    They’ve heard me play. 
    They know I’m a serious contender for the prestigious Manderley Prize. 
    These broken muses aren’t used to losing. 
    But I have one thing they don’t. 
    I have nothing left to lose. 
    Except…my life. 
    Manderley Academy is a dark college reverse harem bully romance retelling of Cinderella – with a gothic twist. Proceed with caution – this tale of three spoiled rich boys with unsettling secrets and the girl who refuses to put up with their crap contains dark themes, a creepy house, a smoldering second-chance romance, college angst, cruel bullies and swoon-worthy sex.

    Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
     
    In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
     
    The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
     
    Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
     
    In this volume our classic authors invite us in to share hospitality at a house most of us are ever keen to veer away from. But the invitation has been issued and it would be rude to disappoint, despite the rising fear that begins to take its chilling grip on us.

    Janzen Robinson is no longer a man torn between two worlds, having decided to come off the bench and dive head first into Cleveland's magical underworld. With his new partner and perpetually exhausted friend Grove, he's just starting to get a handle on all the supernatural happenings when disaster shows up at their doorstep. 
     
     
     
    Gale stands accused of disrupting the Balance, and Janzen finds himself abruptly tasked with finding out who's behind the accusation. It's a charge as serious as it is vague, at least to Janzen, but that doesn't stop the two governing bodies of the In-Between from showing up in his hometown and unleashing a Blind Judge to exact justice. 
     
     
     
    The House of Unet and the Tribe of Masarou don't share Janzen's sense of humor, nor do they have anything in the way of patience or lenience when it comes to dealing with infractions of their laws. 
     
     
     
    Now with a wanted fugitive hiding in their makeshift headquarters and the entire magic community painting a target on his back, Janzen and Grove must step outside their normal alliances for help while attempting to stay ahead of the brutal enforcers hot on their trail in their attempt to get to the bottom of who it was that framed Gale . . .
