Book synopsis

"If you love the girls in Amanda Hocking's and Suzanne Collins' novels, it's time you discovered bestselling YA series author Kailin Gow!" - Steve Windwalker, #1 Amazon bestselling author and Kindle Nation Magazine founder. The dark night, veiled in a cool mist, collapsed around me, closing in as I ran. The forest grew dense while the mist danced through the leaves and flailing branches. For a brief moment I lost sight of my prey. I pressed through the tightly packed shrubs and saw him, running at a speed that was astonishing, but not quite past my own capabilities. He darted around a huge tree, leaped over a stream with ease and clambered up a boulder with a quick glance back at me. "I don t want to fight you, Lux," he said, his voice clear and well-controlled, completely unaffected by the chase. "Not here. Not ever." I jumped to grasp his ankle, but he climbed on, out of reach. "If I must, I ll keep running just to prevent a confrontation with you." Climbing over the boulder, I saw him, running along the edge of the cliff, undisturbed by the sharp drop just inches from his every footfall. The distance between us grew. I had to pound harder, faster, ignoring the possible peril of just one small slip. I had to catch him. Beyond anything else, I had to. "You can t keep running," I called out as I closed the space that kept us apart. "Eventually you ll get tired and you ll have to stop." "You're wrong," he shouted back. "You may get tired, but I won't. I never will." While I concentrated on the chase, my heart held back, longing for another way to resolve our differences. I still loved him. "It's stronger now," he said. "So much stronger. I barely feel human anymore. I could run on and on, tirelessly, endlessly." "But you won't," I argued. Just yards behind him, I could smell him. The scent of his skin had changed. Gone was the sweet masculinity that had always appealed to my senses. His odor was now bitter and pungent. "I'll keep running as long as I have to. You re chasing me to fight and that would force me to fight back. That's something I won't allow, Lux. I won't fight you. I don't want to hurt you. I'd rather die." --Excerpt from Heaven and Hell (Beautiful Beings #2)
