From Book 1: Book 1 of the Core Series

Ava is the kind of girl who knows what's real and what isn't. Nothing in life is fair. Nothing is given freely. Nothing is painless. Every foster kid can attest to those truths, and Ava lives them every day. But when she meets a family of dragon shifters and is chosen to join them as a rider, her very notion of reality is shaken. She doesn't believe she can let her guard down. She doesn't think she can let them in--especially not the reckless, kind-eyed Cale. To say yes to him means he would be hers--her dragon and her companion--for life. But what if Ava has no life left to give?

Alone.

Cameron has always been alone. There's no place for him in his nest, no room for him among his brothers' friends, and no way he's going back to the blue academy that ruined his life. But what happens to that solitude when Cameron meets another loner--one who actually sees him for who he is?

SOLE is a love story, a glimpse into a quiet world. It's a fantastical prequel spin-off to Core (Book 1). Find secret, hidden information about the dragon world that you won't find in the novels. For more on the CORE Series, visit Teshelle Combs' website, teshellecombs.com

The second full-length novel in the CORE SERIES. Please read Core and Sole first.

***

Ava’s starting a new life. Somehow, there is someone who loves her—not with a passion that surges and then fizzles, but with a love that grows steady and real.

Yet something’s wrong. Everything’s wrong.

The new life she’s discovered comes with conditions. Hard ones. Painful ones…and she can’t free herself, no matter how strong she becomes.

Cale would do anything for his Ava. He would fly for her, die for her…but he just can’t accept what she’s becoming. Not when she keeps disappearing. Not when her secrets are bigger than the truth.

As the world spins out of control, a storm brews between dragon and rider. The chaos that ensues might be the only thing that sets the balance straight.

The Core Series continues with book 4, a crucial novella that delves into the hidden world of the grey court judges.

***

Ima has spent centuries imprisoned in a life of luxury and refinement. All she's ever wanted was to be with Papu, for her own sake. But when her love threatens to leave the grey court, Ima is forced to get rid of the one who stands between her and the way out...the Accuser.

Follow Ima down the haunted hallways of the floating grey dragon court. This story intertwines with VANE (book 3) and explores the mysteries of the series.

When I first picked up book one, Core, it was more so out of obligation. I was talking about it to a friend, saying they should read it. That friend asked me specific questions about the book, in which I couldn't answer, as I had not yet read it! From the moment I completed reading the first chapter, I was completely hooked on not only The Core Series, but on Combs writing in general. I literally cried for real at the end of the first novel, not knowing what I'd do with myself until the following one came out! How could I possibly go on awaiting the fates of Ava and Cale??????? I'm happy to report that over 2 years later, I'm still here! Anxiously awaiting whatever this brilliant author pens next!!!!!!!!

Here a some things I have thought or said or screamed while reading this series: "Wait, what?!" "Nooo!" "YES!" "Go! Go! Go!" "Awww!" "I need to talk to Teshelle about this. How could she do this to me?" "That's so cool!" "I hate him so much" "But whyyyyy?" "I wish I was Ava." "Now hold on..." "I wish I had a dragon." "I can't believe this!" "Awww! I knew it!" "Is this the end?! This can't be the end. I need more!"
For those who have read The Core Series, I know you have had similar responses and for those who will read it, buckle up! ;)

Dragons? I cannot believe I read all 3 of these books! (I'm just not that into dragons) but, Ava and Cale will pull you in like long lost family! You'll root for this couple, cry for this couple and even find yourself getting mad at them! These books are brilliantly written, whether you're into Dragons or not, you're gonna love the characters that Ms Combs has created. Treat yourself and read all 3!

Simply AWESOME!!!
All three need to be placed on your list of books to read immediately. You feel like you are a part of the story and each one leaves you waiting for the next. Teshelle Combs is one to watch out for. Applause, applause and cannot wait for the next one.

Really solid fantasy series with a premise you don't see too often; shape-shifting dragons living among us in modern times! If you're a dragon junkie or just in the mood for some not-so-high fantasy, the Core series is where it's at.
