Book Description:
Kate had survived. She had lived through pain and torment and now she was on the other side, where all the happiness was supposed to be. But with Alec’s vengeful punishment for escaping him, she can’t touch anyone without hurting them.
Alec still wants to create a Level Five and he’s dangerously close. That power under his control would mean unraveling the world as it stands. The world Kate has not yet started to enjoy. She won’t be able to rest until her body, her mind is fixed, and Alec won’t get his beloved power without her help.
The two warring sides of Rogues and Shadows will have to meet. Kate will have to confront Alec and his cruel ambition once again. But every moment with the Shadows is detrimental to those she loves, especially Kylan. So she must find a way to outsmart the person who taught her everything she knows, the most feared Shadow in the world.
Kate is strong. She survived once. But even the strongest people can break with the right pressure, and Alec is ready to tear her life apart.
Excerpt 1:
Alec lifted a hand to my face but lowered it again. “But then you came
back to me. You fell for me again. I saw it. If you say you’re done with me,
then why can’t you just do the honorable thing and stop loving me?”
Alec looked down at the floor and he never looked so sheepish and
small.
A trick. It had to be a trick.
But he was so small and broken and careening in his own mind. I knew
what that felt like, all too well.
“I want to.” I leaned back on the shelves again. “You’re despicable and
psychotic. You hurt the people I care about. You tortured me, manipulated me—”
“And yet that’s not good enough for you to kill me. All you can do is
leave, and I’m sitting here hoping I can somehow get you back.” Alec raised his
arms like he didn’t know where to put them anymore. “Why?”
“I don’t know.”
“That’s not an answer. Why?” Alec moved closer to my face.
“Because you won’t let me.”
“Ha.” Alec grinned before his eyes turned dark again. “I wish I had
that much control over your decisions. Try again.”
I shoved him away. “I don’t know, Alec.”
“Yes, you do,” he came right back. “Think, Mara.”
“Because you’re home to me!”
His mouth fell open and the pain created lines around his eyes. I just
stared at him for a moment. I saw all the same years of complications that I
felt in mine. We weren’t just similar. He and I were mirror images of each
other.
“No matter what you do, no matter where I go. When I think back on my
life, you are all I can see for centuries,” I said.
“I get it.” Alec backed off. I caught his arm.
“You don’t. You’re a terrible person. You’re the
nightmare that just won’t go away.” I looked at the floor. “But you’re also a
huge part of my life, whether I hate you or not.”
Angie Day found her love of writing while in college where she studied psychology and eventually went on to a master’s degree. She noticed the need for romantic and fantastic adult stories that were still wholesome and clean. So, she took matters into her own hands.
The Legends and Shadows Saga is her debut series. When she’s not devouring the next book, she is spending time outdoors with her husband.
