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.]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1662394</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1662394</guid><category><![CDATA[MP3_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Yarros, Rebecca]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1662394026</comments><format>MP3_CD</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798212530781/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1374578097</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Onyx Storm]]></title><description><![CDATA[After nearly eighteen months at Basgiath War College, Violet Sorrengail knows there's no more time for lessons.

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."--Publisher.]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1644745</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1644745</guid><category><![CDATA[DAISY]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Yarros, Rebecca]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1644745026</comments><format>DAISY</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=C&amp;upc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wildfire]]></title><description><![CDATA[Maple Hills students Russ Callaghan and Aurora Roberts cross paths at a party celebrating the end of the academic year, where a drinking game results in them having a passionate one-night stand. Never one to overstay her welcome (or expect much from a man), Aurora slips away before Russ even has the chance to ask for her full name. Imagine their surprise when they bump into each other on the first day of the summer camp where they are both counselors, hoping to escape their complicated home lives by spending the summer working. Russ hopes if he gets far enough away from Maple Hills, he can avoid dealing with the repercussions of his father's gambling addiction, while Aurora is tired of craving attention from everyone around her, and wants to go back to the last place she truly felt at home. Russ knows breaking the camp's strict "no staff fraternizing" rule will have him heading back to Maple Hills before the summer is over, but unfortunately for him, Aurora has never been very good at caring about the rules. Will the two learn to peacefully coexist? Or did their one night together start a fire they can't put out?]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1621433</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1621433</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Grace, Hannah]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1621433026</comments><format>BOOK_CD</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781797165981/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1395955440</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dream Girl Drama]]></title><description><![CDATA[When professional hockey player Sig Gauthier's car breaks down and his phone dies, he treks into a posh private country club to call a tow truck, where he encounters the alluring Chloe Clifford, the manic pixie dream girl who captivates him immediately with her sense of adventure and penchant for stealing champagne.

As a part-time student with two jobs, she doesn't have many options. Then the solution presents itself: the owner of the penthouse she cleans is out of town for the week. She normally wouldn't consider it, but he's literally never around (she hasn't even met him). It goes great...until one morning she finds two strangers in the kitchen. They're the parents of the penthouse owner and they seem to think they've heard all about Abi-not as their son's maid, but as his girlfriend . Declan Powell has always put his career first, working his way up to become an executive at his company, but he still has his sights set on the next level. When his parents mention that they met his girlfriend, "Abby," he all but chokes on his escargot. As wonderful as it sounds that she was just darling , he doesn't actually have a girlfriend-he made her up to get everyone off his back. When Dex finds out who Abi really is, he makes her a proposition: pretend to date him, and he'll provide everything she needs during their little arrangement. What harm would it do?

Even happier now that the mystery woman from the bar is the interior designer for his dream project on his family's ranch. He feels like he hit the jackpot. Too bad she wants absolutely nothing to do with him outside of work. Ada is convinced the pull she feels toward Wes will go away, but Wes can't stop thinking about her.
