Book two of the Light Series
The saying goes that all men are created equal... but Nicole Abbot knows better. Lacking the supernatural gifts of the Sentients she has known all her life, Nicole has lived with her nose pressed to the glass, withering beneath the guilt of her own inadequacies and the disapproving glare of her father. It's easy to believe that the universe has forgotten all about her, but things are not always as they seem. With the arrival of Christian Wright, a handsome but complex Combatant with a troubled history, Nicole is forced to question everything she has ever believed about herself, proving that sometimes, our most flawed perceptions are those reflected in a mirror.
Excerpt
I forced a closed-mouthed smile and left the safety of the kitchen, Laura on my heels. The first face I saw was Theo’s, and he was wearing the happiest expression he’d worn in months. Something had changed. I wondered briefly if Abram had managed to help him with his destructive tendencies.
When he noticed me approaching, Theo smiled in greeting and nudged Elaine, who was deep in conversation. She smacked at his arm, clueless to his intentions, and he shrugged in defeat as I settled into a fairly hidden hovering spot behind Gil. Everyone else was gathered around the new Combatant, and I couldn’t see him properly.
“Nick!” Wendell called, dislodging himself from the crowd. An unfamiliar head turned in response, and my immediate reaction was to cease breathing. The man I could only marginally recognize as Christian—golden-blond hair, turquoise eyes, the strongest jaw line I had ever seen—was staring right at me. It may have only lasted a few seconds, but for the love of God, I swear to you on my life that time stopped.
Hadn’t people been chattering away just a moment earlier? Where had the sound gone? Was I suffering from a freak onset of deafness? Panic! This was bad. This was a nightmare. What kind of expression was I wearing? Was I smiling? Was I gawking like a fish? I couldn’t feel my face but for the intense burning in my cheeks. And why was my throat so dry? Oh, Christ—this was the worst case scenario, wasn’t it? He was the most beautiful man I’d ever laid eyes on, and even in my bewilderment, even as Wendell dragged me—legs trembling—over to meet him, I knew without question that I was completely, royally screwed.
