Beyond A Darkened Sky
What if the life you live were a facade, your dreams a reflection of your true identity, and what if those worlds collided?
The balance between good and evil has just been shattered, opening a path for a dark lord’s demons and shadows to consume the energy found in humanity. To New York psychiatrist Dr. Sara Forrester, these nightmares become more than figments of a troubled mind when a powerful entity known as the Soltari calls Sara to duty as their only hope to retrieve three ancient keys hidden thousands of years earlier. But to find the keys she must unlock the gateway to each of them by way of three secret medallions. As part of Sara’s existence in this life, the alliance that governs the equilibrium between good and evil has blocked her memory from the many past lives she’s lived and the power she holds in order for her to establish a relatively ordinary life on earth.
The last great warrior hasn’t forgotten the love he’s vowed to protect across time and space. He’s come to earth under the guise of a physician and colleague on an oath to the Soltari not to remind Sara of their past lives together when the mission is engaged. In guarding every facet of the quest, the Alliance couldn’t risk a love that transcends time to interfere with the task to rescue billions of lives and put a halt to earth remaining as an intended place of human development. There is no room for distraction where life-threatening decisions need to be made. If Sara fails the mission, not only will the quest to save lives be lost but so too will the eternal bond of two souls linked for centuries. $2.99 on Kindle.
