    Paperback (The Writer's Coffee Shop, Oct. 9, 2014)
    Ava Michaels is gifted, powerful, and-whether she likes it or not-part of a plot to take over the world. It's only been a few months since Ava Michaels discovered she has ties to an ancient people living in the shadows of the human world despite their superior gifts and abilities. A select few don't like hiding, however, and think it's time to take control. Now Ava's caught up in a conspiracy in the works before she was even born. In fact, her birth was an integral part of the plan. She's one of the Twelve, the most powerful Race ever created, and they were created for a purpose. Ava, however, doesn't like being told what to do. All she wants is to start a new life with Caleb Foster, the Protector who once put his own life at risk to save hers. Before they can even think about that, however, they need to figure out exactly what the Twelve and their power-hungry leader are up to-and find a way to stop them. Along the way, they'll have to forge alliances with former enemies, seek out powerful new friends, and infiltrate the heavily fortified enemy stronghold in an attempt to get some answers. In the end, Ava must decide if her destiny lies in her DNA or in her conscience. If she can turn her back on what she was born to do and do what is right. If she will save the ones she loves or save the world. Or if her ties to the Twelve mean she has no choice at all.
