Synopsis

Everything has changed—people, my life—no one and nothing is as it seems. With each new threat, the idea of normal slips farther beyond my reach.

A relationship with Blain is everything Trinity has ever wished for—even before she realized she wanted it, but after the near fatal attack with Melia, something changes. The connection that binds them shifts, and a dark force threatens to wedge the two apart. Trinity’s only hope for the life she craves is stopping Melia and her immortal Rogues.

But fate always has an ulterior plan.

As Trinity’s eighteenth birthday draws near, more abilities manifest. But controlling them is a problem. During an emergency Watcher meeting, some question if Trinity is strong enough to carry out the task she is fated to uphold.

Secrets are revealed, and lives are lost. Melia has plans to awaken an ancient god whose wrath—if released—is sure to create more devastation than Pandora. As new threats surface, fear spreads. Fighting to keep the people Trinity cares for safe may be more than she can handle.

In the end, light may not be enough to outshine the darkness.

Teaser: Excerpt

Waking up every morning to Blain and his skillful, mind-blowing kisses definitely made starting the day easier. Those lips of his had a way of making me forget the outside world. His clean cotton and fresh-out-of-the-shower scent clung to him like static, and I couldn't get enough. The feeling of comfort and safety while wrapped in his arms enveloped me, and the terrible images that startled me awake earlier faded away.
     Melia being a Rogue and nearly killing me was frightening. But seeing the black orb attack Blain was a whole new level of terrifying. He seemed okay, though. God, I hoped he was okay.
     Blain inched back, definitely far enough to see redness spread across my face, and grinned. His stare, the desire and need held there, made my pulse race. "God, you're beautiful," he said, stroking a thumb across my cheek.
     His tender touch burned through me. The familiar buzz danced along my skin, and the colors from our power–white and gold– followed the sweet caress.
     "This is my favorite part, the pink across your cheeks and knowing I put it there."
     I smiled. "Mine is definitely your lips."
     In turn, they kicked up in a sinful smile. The single butterfly in my stomach multiplied into a swarm. The clear blue in his eyes darkened, and he brought his mouth over mine.
     Blain's kiss started nice and slow. His hand slid down my side, finding the edge of my shirt, along with a bundle of feelings I shouldn't be exploring just yet.
     My heart thudded in a staccato-style rhythm. More heat rushed over my skin like a furnace.
     I didn't want to stop. Didn't want to think about what Melia's next move may be. Silently, I wished that her army of Rogues, and all the other obstacles in our way, would disappear.
     We'd almost lost each other during the near-fatal fight with Melia. Death gave a person a sense of perspective, and living in the moment, with Blain, was the only place I wanted to be.
     "Stop worrying," Blain said against my lips, then pulled away. "Right now is about me making up for being a jerk, and for not doing more of this sooner."
     I wanted to let it go. So bad, but the spinning wheel of thoughts in my brain refused to slow down. "What if Melia sends her Rogues after us? We should probably get a few workouts in, so I'm better prepared." A spike of terror tugged at my insides.
     "You're right, we need to get you better prepared. But first I need to do a full body inspection. Make sure all your parts are workable," he said, pressing his lower half into me.
     Before I could reply, he skimmed his tongue across my lower lip, dissolving whatever smartass comment was about to come out.
     I granted him access, and the worry of Melia's attack faded. A clear image of Blain filtered in–the sexy, lone-dimpled grin he'd given me over a dozen times. Private moments between us were few. Losing myself with Blain… his touch, his lips, his everything, turned my bones to mush.
     If only the bliss could've lasted longer.
     The somber memory of yesterday, Blain's life nearly lost, all still too real. The awareness created an empty pit in my stomach. Within seconds, the daydreamed effects of us together and safe shattered.
     My body stiffened. Thank goodness Morpheus barged in before Blain caught on that something was wrong.
     "Knock, knock."
     Blain's wandering hand on my stomach froze, and his lips stopped moving. Resting his forehead against mine, a growling sound deep in his throat emerged. "I should've let you take him out," he said, frustrated.
     I smiled. Regardless of what was going on, knowing the effect I had over Blain kinda rocked. Strike that, it totally kicked ass.
     Blain sighed. "Please tell me the reason you're in my room is because you've found Melia and destroyed her. I'd really like to get back to spending time with my girlfriend."

Hope's Decree: The Fated [1]

**ONLY .99 for a limited time**

When everything else is lost, there is always hope.

While most teens want an epic senior year, Trinity Whitebone hoped for a normal one. Being seventeen was hard enough. Having the emotions of everyone around you in your head made life more than a little difficult.

Until Blain Heros enrolled.

He screamed hot-god in jeans with just his walk. His intense stare warmed her skin like a thousand suns. Unfortunately, his interest in her seemed to run from blazing to freezing in the span of moments and left her nothing but confused. She could deal with things not being normal, but when life goes from strange to dangerous…

Trinity is the direct descendant of Pandora and fated to rectify the terrors released into the world by her curious ancestor. With powers she didn’t know existed and abilities she never wanted, Trinity tries to walk away from everything her life had become. She thought she could turn her back on her fate, until a band of rogue immortals discover who she is and will do whatever it takes to control her powers. Trinity is left with one decision…Embrace fate or die trying.
