Violet

18-year-old Adelynne Asteri is in for an adventure that holds mystery and answers to questions that she may not be ready for yet. Will she be able and willing to put her past behind her and accept the life that is in her future? Or will she let the pains of yesterday hold her back?

Susan Myers, Suzi, was born with a red birthmark that paints one side of her face and body like a scarlet brand. To her father Rodrigo, she is a curse, something monstrous he never deserved. To the world, she is invisible, kept hidden behind locked doors while her beautiful sister, Elizabeth, is paraded like a prize. To clear his debt to Antonio Costello, Rodrigo arranges a marriage between Elizabeth and Antonio’s son, Maxwell Costello. But when Max mistakes Suzi with Elizabeth, her entire world changes. Even after learning she is not the daughter he was promised, Max insists on marrying her. No bargaining. No pity. Just a quiet, steady certainty that leaves Suzi shaken. She doesn’t understand it. Why would Max choose her, marked and hidden as she is? Max sees what others don’t, and Suzi is about to find out what happens when a girl the world calls unworthy is finally seen by someone who refuses to look away.

Sequel to Under the Zodiac Sky Adelynne and Belen are preparing for the fight of their lives. With twists and turns that will throw a few wrenches in their plans, heartbreak and hard choices that will need to be made, will they be able to accomplish their goal without having to sacrifice Adelynne's good will?

"I'm an ordinary waiter, but I can see people's fate, including Shifters. Like all children, I was tested for magic when I was only a few days old. Since my specific bloodline is unknown and my magic is unidentifiable, I was marked with a delicate swirling pattern around my upper right arm. I do have magic, just as the tests showed, but it has never lined up with any known Magic species. I can't breathe fire like a dragon Shifter, or hex people who piss me off like Witches. I can't make potions like an Alchemist or seduce people like a Succubus. Now I don't mean to be unappreciative of the power I do have, it's interesting and all, but it just really doesn't pack much of a punch and most of the time it is just pretty much useless. My special magical skill is the ability to see threads of fate. Most of life is annoying enough for me, and what never occurred to me is that my mate is a rude, pompous nuisance. He's an Alpha and my friend's twin brother. --------------------------------------- “What are you doing? This is my home, you can't just let yourself in!” I try and keep my voice firm but when he turns and fixes me with his golden eyes I shrink back. The look he gives me is imperious and I automatically drop my eyes to the floor as is my habit. Then I force myself to look back up again. He doesn't notice me looking up because he's already looked away from me. He's being rude, I refuse to show that he's scaring me, even though he most definitely is. He glances around and after realising that the only place to sit is the little table with its two chairs he points to it. “Sit.” he orders. I glare at him. Who is he to order me around like this? How can someone this obnoxious possibly be my soul mate? Maybe I'm still asleep. I pinch my arm and my eyes water a little from the sting of pain."

"I gave him three years of silent devotion behind a mask I never wanted to wear. I made a wager for our bond—he paid me off like a mistress. ""Chloe's back,"" Zane said coldly. ""It's over."" I laughed, poured wine on his face, and walked away from the only love I'd ever known. ""What now?"" my best friend asked. I smiled. ""The real me returns."" But fate wasn't finished yet. That same night, Caesar Conrad—the Alpha every wolf feared—opened his car door and whispered, ""Get in."" Our gazes collided. The bond awakened. No games. No pretending. Just raw, unstoppable power. ""Don't regret this,"" he warned, lips brushing mine. But I didn't. Because the mate I'd been chasing never saw me. And the one who did? He's ready to burn the world for me."
