Semester 9 (Urban Academy #10)

With finals over, and the winter season upon us, we can all enjoy the holidays. Most of the students from the Urban Academy have headed home for a much-deserved break, but my mates and I have decided to stay and create a special Yule season together.

Jo, my boss at the Midnight was a huge fan of the winter holidays and not only would I be able to work all the hours I wanted, but with Onyx and Raven committed to spending this time at Asher’s family home —something both of them declared they’d pay a billion dollars to get out of —the bar would be shorthanded.

All was merry and bright at first, but of course in the urban jungle where paranormal crime abounds, nothing is ever as easy as it seems. Erik, the vampire who helped us take out my evil uncle Dean wants to find out who killed his lady Diane decades ago, and he’s enlisted our help. He saw her briefly, during our finally battle with my uncle, but she was gone before he had a chance to speak to her.

It would be easier if Onyx and the others were here. Maybe they’ll come back early? But either way, we are to help. It’s only fair. And how boring would it be just to sit around and drink eggnog with shifters and vampires and the fae?

Urban Academy Semester 9 is the tenth story in the Urban Academy series by bestselling author Mazzy J. March. The first books follow the story of Valentina’s new life in the city at the Urban Academy where she learns that the world is much broader and more varied than she ever dreamed and sometimes a human girl’s fate may twine with that of another kind of being. Or three. In Semester 9, Valentina and the others are ready to relax and enjoy the holidays but nothing is ever as easy as that for the students at the Urban Academy and their friends.
