Book Blurb ~
As Averie grows up her world is normal, safe, that is until she turns eighteen and Silas, a mysterious stranger, arrives claiming to be from another world and demanding she return with him to save both of their worlds.
The more she learns about him and herself the more truth she finds in his stories as a power sparks to life inside her. Struggling between maintaining her normal life and coming to terms with her newfound destiny, Averie fights to stay in control of herself and her new abilities.
With the help of Silas and her adopted brother Thane, Averie strives to gain control of her abilities to take back the Realms from the Betrayer Marcus and another unexpected enemy. With great power, comes great responsibility, and loss.
Book available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo and other retailers in print, Kindle and Audiobook.
This is a full-length coming-of-age, OMG I'm a ... (Can't tell you but it took us all by surprise), action-packed, prophecy-fulfilling (we might still be working on that), alternate realm, good vs evil, changing destiny, YA fantasy
And this is just the beginning of her journey
On Averie's 16 birthday things began to change - but like most teens, she put everything she has into ignoring the little issues -
The pesky dreams that lean slightly toward nightmares
The strange weather patterns (I loved this little tidbit)
The feeling like she is a touch detached
The man with the silver eyes
As her 18th birthday approached it became harder to deny these incidents
Harder - but not impossible
Until Silas crashed her party and popped her bubble of denial
I looked forward to cuddling up each evening with these characters and traveling along with them as Averie discovered a whole new reality where she wasn't the odd duckling.
Turns out she might be the prophecized one.
What girl can say no to an opportunity such as that?
Now with Silas, the warrior and bearer of bad news,
and Thane, her "brother from another mother", watching her back and guiding her steps she begins her quest to find out who and or what she is and if she can rejoin the splintered realms
Sera, her BFF, is at her side for support
And Lucas...
Well I will let you decide when it comes to him
Her journey is far from easy but she is ready to kick booty and take no prisoners (okay she is working on it give a gal a break) as the past is uncovered and new hurdles develop Averia discovers not everyone is as they seem.
Friends can betray.
Enemies can assist.
And nothing is truly black and white
Great world building
A stellar cast of characters
A solid storyline that keeps the reader engaged
There were some areas, minor, that needed editing but nothing that detracted from the story
Definitely will be returning
