Synopsis: As members of the Phoenix, Jeric and Leni are thrust into their new lives, expected to lead Earth’s Guardians. But Leni struggles with trusting her own soul, and Jeric is more concerned about keeping Leni safe than meeting others’ demands. When Darkness swarms Lake Haven, they embark on their first mission with little preparation and no idea which soul the Dark hunts.

Born and raised in Lake Haven, Bex hopes to escape her small-town life, ideally in the arms of her soul mate. She knows he exists, and her heart aches with the need to find him. When her long-lost mama calls to announce she's knockin' on death's door, Bex reluctantly makes the trip to see the uncaring bitch (bless her heart), only to be knocked off her feet by the sexy and charming Dr. Mason Hayes. Is he really The One?

Leni’s soul felt an instant connection to Bex, but if Bex found her soul mate, she isn’t their mission. So who is, and why does Leni instinctively feel drawn to her? Can Leni even trust her intuition? And will Jeric step up and lead when the time comes orcontinue to hold them back?

If they don't learn to trust themselves and each other quickly, Darkness will claim them all…along with the rest of Earth’s souls.

A sigh from Leni rippled through our soul. It wasn't for me or my sarcasm, through. She'd picked up on Mat's snark factor, too.
"This shift won't do us any good," she said so only I could hear as we traveled to the Gate.
"Too late to back out now," I told her, then gave her a mental squeeze and added, "We'll just have to make it worth our time after."
A vision of her naked boy trembling as she straddled me played in our minds. Sex in this state made everything else work it.
"Do you ever think of anything else?" she teased.
"Only when I'm forced to." -- Leni & Jeric taken from the eARC at about 8% into the book.
