Description:
Hunted
by Chaos. Protected by Death. Guided by Fire.
Terran
is now the key to a world she never knew existed.
Normal
was what Terran did best – house, job, dog, friends – rinse and
repeat. She never knew demigods existed, or that you could journey to
other realms, manipulate nature with your mind, or that the dead
weren’t really gone at all, but instead existed in the Underworld.
No, she lived the mundane life of any twenty-seven-year-old Alaskan
girl…until she met Aiden, the complicated and gorgeous new local
art gallery owner.
As
their fiery relationship evolves into something more, Terran finds
herself surrounded by a world of nightmares and gods, when the
mysterious Aiden proves to be more than a simple man. Soon, Terran
finds that she is not so simple herself. As an ancient evil threatens
to escape and unleash all Hell, Terran must dive into a magical world
she never knew existed to save them all…even if that means giving
up her life to do it.
Excerpts
#1:
"Aren't
these Aiden’s pieces?" Micah had caught up to me and seemed as
perplexed as I did.
"Yeah,
I guess so.”
“Who
would have thought he'd donate his work?" Micah commented and
then lost interest, walking away as she saw someone she recognized.
I
stayed, staring in shock.
"Don't
look so surprised. Your friend Jon's charity is truly for a good
cause."
I
shouldn't have lingered. By now I should have known to avoid anything
having to do with Aiden. Many of the contributing artists were here
to help promote their pieces so I should have known. But somehow he
always caught me off guard.
"Actually,
I'm surprised you have a heart at all." My disdain oozed off my
words as I gave him the biggest scowl I could muster.
However
ugly I thought his attitude, I couldn't say the same about his
appearance. Aiden cleaned up nicely in his all-black tuxedo. His hair
had been gelled down, but you could still see the natural wave of it.
His tux looked as if it had been custom-made, which made me curious.
How many black-tie events did he go to in order to have purchased a
custom tux?
But,
who cared? With my shoulders back, chest raised, and chin up I turned
my head, grabbed my dress on the sides and walked away. Screw him.
I
got about three steps away before I heard him.
"You
look beautiful," he said to my back. It stopped me, my heart
thumping loud in my chest. An immeasurable amount of time had passed
since someone besides my friends had told me I was beautiful. I could
feel him staring at me, but I didn't move. I only stood there,
frozen.
"Terran,"
His voice was soft with yearning. It was then that I gained enough
courage to walk away. I had already made up my mind about him. He was
too complicated and I was tired of the ups and downs of his mood.
This man would break my spirit, at least what little of it I fought
to keep.
