Opening Page:

Jayden tightened her grip on the dagger's hilt and focused on the apple instead of Geoffrey's head. Her sweat slicked the weapon's handle. Sunshine spilled through the tree branches and caused leaves to cast moving shadows on her target, which only played tricks on her eyes. The tattered edge of Geoffrey's tunic fluttered in the summer breeze, breaking her concentration. This was madness. What is she missed? The dagger tip quivered as a shiver raced through her body.

Destiny can pick someone else.

Evil is slipping through the cracks of its prison, and all Soleden trembles in its wake. Yet some would harness that evil to their own ends, and first among them is Idla, the sorceress queen bent on distorting the world.

Only one can stand in her way: Jayden. Upon realizing her mark as the prophesied Deliverer, Jayden conceals herself from her enemies and her Feravolk countrymen. But after the harm the Feravolk caused to her family, she’s loath to rescue the not-so-innocent.

Hiding her mark was never easy, but now that Jayden knows both Queen Idla and the Feravolk are after her, hiding her gift of the Blood Moon will be impossible.

Opening Page:

Logan stood on the top of a wooded hill facing the direction of the palace, the wolves with him. He'd come here again because of the pull in his chest, like a string attached to something but always out of reach, or a dream he was supposed to remember hours after waking. It had to be telling him where to find the remaining three Deliverers. Specifically his son.

Destiny can be cruel...

Darkness retreated from the light of the scarlet moon, but has since grown even stronger. The Mistress of Shadows has found a new pawn-one that may be the key to unlocking the door to her underground prison. Now evil threatens to escape its shackles and destroy the land.

In the aftermath of loss and betrayal, Jayden's fight with the enemy still isn't over. But while she isn't sure she can stop the Mistress alone, leaving her friends might be the only way to keep them from being consumed by the darkness.

With lives hanging in the balance-and no time for error-can Jayden make the right choice?

Opening Page:

The metallic, sulfurous scent of ash and lava permeated the air. From the top of the hill, Logan watched the sun crest the horizon, red and hungry. Like the fire had been, like the lava had been, like the ground had been for blood. 

Cracked, broken, and barren, the black chasm from which the dragon had lifted the Mistress's limp form marred the ground. 

"The forest smells wounded."

by S. D. Grimm

Destiny made a mistake.

Everyone told Jayden she was the prophesied Deliverer sent to rescue Soleden. But when the time came to defeat her nemesis, she failed. Now the Mistress’s power spreads through the land, strangling all of creation to make way for a world she’s creating herself.

With every moment, the Mistress gains more strength, and Jayden realizes she was never meant to defeat her alone. She's one of four Deliverers, after all. But if they are caught, the Mistress will use them to gain the Creator’s power. And one of the Deliverers has gone missing and might already be in the camp of the enemy.

Can Jayden reunite the Deliverers before it's too late? Or will she fail the world another time?
