Back blurb:
Her Destiny is to rise above her fall.
You cannot know what light is, if you have
not experienced darkness.
Ava and her people have been exiled to the planet Poseidon for reasons she
can’t fathom.
Upon meeting a boy from a different sector, her life turns into beautiful
chaos. She begins to feel things she isn’t allowed to, this motivating her to
find out the truth about why her kind are so different, and why the Council are
so interested in her.
Once her mind is freed, with it comes a
terrible power that could either save her kind, or destroy them all.
But Eva is not the perfect heroine. She
will become what she hates to save the ones she loves, and the cost of such a
burden is deadly at best.

“What’s so damn funny?” I asked her, almost panicking that someone
would notice we had disregarded our curfew yet again.
We slowed down as we rose to a low crouch, the tunnel opening up
to a small entrance. Sam held out her hands, her fingers laced together. I
gingerly slid a foot into them as she pushed me up toward the small tunnel
entrance at the base of a huge, silverwood tree. We had accidentally found the
entrance while playing hide and seek when we were kids. It had become our
secret hideaway since then. We visited our hideaway almost every afternoon to
get away from the severity that school held for me.
I couldn’t help but wonder if I would still have been treated as
an outsider, had my grandfather not been our founder. I thought they all held a
grudge against me for our existence. Experiments―that’s all we were to the
Council. As I pulled Sam through from the other side, a faint light from behind
her caused a long shadow to hide her expression, but by the easy set of her
shoulders, I could tell that she was still smiling.
“What is it with you? I asked her, somewhat irritated.
She stroked her chin. “I can hear Sonja right now,” she said. “You
just do whatever you want, don’t you?” she mimicked, her finger waving in front
of my face, her head bouncing from side to side.
“She’ll be furious,” I said. “We’ll get detention for this, or
worse. We’ll be imprisoned for the weekend.” I rolled my eyes.
“Oh, no! I don’t want to have to stay indoors and stare at her
pudgy face the whole weekend, when I could be staring into François’ hazel eyes
instead,” Sam said with a smirk on her face, her eyes sparkling.
“I knew it! You kept it from me, you cow!” I shouted, punching her
on the arm full force, making her take a step back.
“Let’s go,” Sam whined, rubbing her arm. “Stop procrastinating. I
don’t want to go back any more than you do,” she added irritably, heading for
the path between the overgrown bushes.
