Synopsis
When
Sophie moves to Boston to get away from the people who ridiculed her
for her psychic talents, she wants to start fresh. But when a demon
attacks her study group at the library, she has no choice but to
reveal her abilities to warn the others.
She
learns the attacks won't stop until she's dead. To stay alive she
joins forces with the other students and a secret society that has
battled the demons for centuries.
The
last thing she wants to do is be a pawn in the war of good and evil.
When her visions start showing events from a past life, she can't
ignore the connections it shows. She has no choice but to acknowledge
the bonds that tie her to the other students, even if some of them
refuse, to have the strength to defeat the demon that hunts them
down.
Will
she survive long enough to stop the demons from destroying everything
and everyone she loves?
Excerpt:
“Finally.
I thought you’d never wake up.”
The
voice whispered like death over Sophie’s senses. Her heart
stuttered when she turned on the bunk and looked out. Akeldama sat
in a chair just outside her cell. Perfect, pale legs peeked out from
a sleek red dress.
The
demon’s skin was so pale, Sophie wondered if the person she wore
had been dead for days. Blue veins crawled across the skin like
highways, all meeting in the center of her chest.
“That’s
a little different than the mommy-and-me act.” Sophie tried to
keep her voice from shaking. Her fear was so sharp she could almost
taste it.
Akeldama
laughed and Sophie knew she heard Death in the sound. It froze her
insides. She tried to keep a calm face. “Oh, I have a whole host
of disguises. It works to not look the same every time I kill
someone.”
Instantly
Todd’s face, his smile, shot through Sophie’s mind. Her body
tensed against the cold wall. Words, full of rage, formed but she
couldn’t force them out. Instead, she glared across the cell.
The
malevolence thickened. It reached out to Sophie and gripped her
hard. The breath disappeared from her lungs as she was dragged from
the bed. She hit the floor of the cell hard enough to knock her
teeth together. Before she managed to inhale, Akeldama’s power
tightened and hauled her to the bars.

Author Bio:
I'm
a multitasking mom of four. When not writing/doing
laundry/changing diapers, I like to catch up on episodes of
Supernatural and Castle. If you can't find me in front of the
computer, I'm most likely watching my DVR.
I've
been writing since the first grade, where I wrote a one page story
titled "If I was an Indian". My warrior husband was
going to be the best hunter, I was going to live in the best teepee
and apparently, I was having an affair with the Chief. Racy, I
know.
Of
the things I'm addicted to sweet tea, movies, and books top the
list. My favorite authors include Nora Roberts, Lauren Kate,
Kresley Cole, and Gena Showalter. Few of many I love.
Thanks
so much for reading!
Sam
