Did you just see a flash of lightning across the sky on a clear sunny day? It’s not from Mother Nature. It is most likely from Mason Grand, swoon-worthy demigod, one of Zeus’s descendants.
Skylar Rome is supposed to be having the best summer ever before she heads off to college. Little did she know, her whole life was about to change while visiting her cousin. Nearly drowning at the beach due to unknown forces, one of the Grand brothers she’d just met, Mason, saves her life. Cool, collected, mysterious, and dangerously good-looking, Skylar is drawn to him from the start. Though she knows he is the type of guy good girls stayed away from, it seems he is always saving her life, and the attraction was inevitable.
Upon meeting the brothers, strange things begin to happen. When she accidentally kills one of the brothers, it throws her life into turmoil, as they search to find the answers. Implausibly, she gets caught up in a world of the descendants of ancient gods, all who have super powers. Not only is her discovery difficult to accept, evil beings are after her. Running out of time and running for her life, she must unravel a mystery. What do they want from her? Forced into a battle set into motion long before she was born, will she find the answers, or will she die trying?
Teaser:
“Mason, Mason, Mason,”
Skylar panicked.
“I know. Skylar, hold on
tight. I’m going to brake.”
“But…but there are cars
behind us.”
“We have no choice. Don’t
worry. I got this.” Pushing down on the brake pedal forcefully, the car
hydroplaned to the right. “Hold on,” Mason yelled. Skylar gripped the first
thing she could place her hand on tightly. The water from the road jetted up
into the air like a water show, but the car kept gliding sideways, until
finally it spun a full circle and stopped. With no time to waste, Mason turned
the car toward the right and accelerated, hoping to dodge what was coming
toward them.
Out of nowhere, a long
piece of ice, taking the form of a spear-like shape, darted through the trucks’
tires and punctured some of them. More ice spears came soaring out of the rain,
but this time, ten or more sphere like ice balls followed, denting the sides of
the trucks, and one went through a windshield. With flat tires, the trucks now
glided as if on ice, maneuvering from side to side.
“Did you do that?”
Skylar asked excitedly.
“No…must be Poseidon’s
kids. Where the hell are they?” Mason spread his right arm in front of Skylar,
as if to protect her. “Bend down, Sky.”
One of the trucks hit
another and swirled, hitting the other adjacent to it. The crash caused the
trucks to flip and tumble, heading straight for Mason’s car. With a look of
shock, Skylar held her breath. With no time to move, think, or get out of the
car, she closed her eyes and prepared for the crash.
Just seconds before the
impact, Mason’s car flew up into the air, over the trucks. Somehow, magically,
the water created a liquid bridge, guiding the car safely over, and then it thumped
hard on the ground on the other side. Without looking back, Mason sped away as
the sound of screeching brakes and metal impacting on metal blasted behind
them.
