Only $0.99!
Blurb:
Kasey Reese ran from a life of responsibility to study
abroad in Deia, Spain. She hoped for an adventure, but what unfolded in Spain
was beyond the imaginable. In that remote little village she met the love of
her life, Dion - a twenty-year-old immortal saint.
Kasey and Dion return to America only to realize their love is challenged by
their opposite virtues and Kasey’s dysfunctional family.
Unique and action-packed, in this book Kasey learns that Pandora is her
immortal grandmother. Determined to find her and to uncover many truths, Kasey
sets out with Dion on a deadly journey. But answers come with a great cost - a
three thousand year old prophecy, a feud of the gods and death.
Excerpt:
“I’m calling 911,” Teal said
frazzled by the whole thing.
I held on to his wrist tighter,
“Hold on not yet.”
“What do you mean not yet, are
you crazy!” Teal screamed at me frantic.
Dion didn’t hesitate. He swiftly
scooped Nolan into his arms and disappeared before our eyes.
“Where the hell are they? What
the hell just happened?” Teal looked around confused.
“Come on let’s go.” I sat up,
grabbed my things, and headed for the car. I wept all the way. I couldn’t get
it under control.
“No,” Teal pulled his hand away.
I hadn’t even noticed that I was still holding on to it.
“Kasey, what is going on?”
“I don’t know,” I yelled back.
“Where’s is Dion and Nolan? How
could they have just disappeared?” He started to follow me to my car.
“Dion took Nolan back to his
house.” I knew I had a lot of explaining to do.
“Exactly how,” he stopped
walking.
“I will explain in the car, now let’s get the
hell out of here.”
He gathered the seriousness in
my tone and hurried to catch up. As soon as we made it to the car my phone
vibrated. It was Dion letting me know that he arrived at the house and Nolan
was with Max. Feeling relieved but completely terrified I sobbed.
“Who was that?” Teal asked. His eyes wide, his
face covered with an expression of madness. I started the car with shaky hands
and began our forty-five minute trip to the Kleon ranch. I kept my breathing
shallow and slow. The smell of blood from our clothes made me sick.
“It was Dion, he’s at the house.
Max is taking care of Nolan.”
“Kasey,” Teal narrowed his eyes, “how did Dion
get to Saint Cloud in a few minutes?”
I exhaled and shot quick glances
at Teal. “Dion isn’t exactly human.”
He lost all color in his face
and his eyes went from narrow to wide.
“What do you mean he’s not human?”
“Dion and his brothers are immortals…”
“Jesus, Kasey. I’m going to flip out on you if
you freakin tell me your boyfriend is a vampire!” He was crazed.
“Don’t be ridiculous Teal, vampires don’t
exist…I don’t think. Dion and his brothers are immortal saints.”
Review:
This book has a unique blend of Christianity and Greek
Mythology but it blends so well together. I was so excited to read more of
Kasey and Dion since I loved them in the first book so much. But this time they
are off to America
but not everything goes as planned with different virtues and families get
involved.
What I loved most about this is Dion’s family. They are so
close and had me laughing so much while reading this book. My other favorite is
we get to meet some of the Greek Gods while Kasey and Dion search for Pandora
who is Kasey’s grandmother. How crazy cool would that be to find out you are
related to a Greek God? But things are not always what it seems when you’re
dealing with prophecies and Greek Gods. Some of the twists had me shocked while
others had me crying. But this all just made me want to go out and buy the next
book so I could see how it all ends.
