Queen, book 3 and conclusion of the Blackcoat Rebellion series by Aimee Carter

PAWN…CAPTIVE…QUEEN? 
http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/queen-aimee-carter/1121650747?ean=9781460393901Kitty Doe is a Blackcoat rebel and a former captive with a deadly connection to the most powerful and dangerous man in the country, Prime Minister Daxton Hart. Forced to masquerade as Daxton's niece, Lila Hart, Kitty has helped the Blackcoats take back the prison known as Elsewhere. But Daxton has no intention of ceding his position of privilege—or letting Kitty expose his own masquerade. Not in these United States, where each person's rank means the difference between luxury and poverty, freedom and fear…and ultimately, between life and death.
To defeat the corrupt government, Kitty must expose Daxton's secret. Securing evidence will put others in jeopardy, including the boy she's loved forever and an ally she barely trusts. For months, Kitty's survival has hinged on playing a part. Now she must discover who she truly wants to be, and whether the new world she and the rebels are striving to create has a place in it for her after all.

Experience the epic love story of OBSIDIAN as told by its hero, Daemon Black…
http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/oblivion-jennifer-l-armentrout/1122360988?ean=9781633754799I knew the moment Katy Swartz moved in next door, there was going to be trouble. Lots of it.  And trouble’s the last thing I need, since I’m not exactly from around here. My people arrived on Earth from Lux, a planet thirteen billion light years away. Plus, if there’s one thing I know, it’s that humans can’t be trusted. We scare them. We can do things they only dream about, and honestly, we make them look weak as hell. ‘Cuz they are.
But Kat is getting to me in ways no one else has, and I can't stop myself from wanting her—or wanting to use my powers to protect her. She makes me weak, and I’m the strongest of our kind, tasked with protecting us all. So this one simple girl…she can mean the end for us. Because the Luxen have an even bigger enemy—the Arum, and I need to stay on my game.  Falling for Katy—a human—won't just place her in danger. It could get us all killed, and that’s one thing I’ll never let happen...   Note: Already in Barnes & Noble stores
