Zodiac Academy is a nine-book dark romantasy series following twin sisters Darcy and Tory Vega, who discover they are the lost heirs to the throne of Solaria — a world of Fae, elemental magic, and strict Order hierarchies — and are immediately sent to Zodiac Academy, where the four most powerful students in the kingdom have every incentive to destroy them before they can claim what’s theirs. What begins as a bully romance academy story grows into a full-scale war epic spanning political conspiracy, ancient prophecy, and a lineage of kings manipulated into violence by the man sitting on their throne. The series became one of the defining BookTok romance reads of its era, building a devoted readership through its dual heroines, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers arcs, and a willingness to put its characters through sustained, genuinely high-stakes misery.
Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti are sisters who began co-writing and self-publishing in 2015. Zodiac Academy launched in July 2019 and went on to make both authors #1 Wall Street Journal and Amazon bestsellers, with the series selling over seven million copies.
