Dessa Ambrose – the normal girl-next-door who yearns for her life to attain meaning – meets the strangely alluring Christopher Calder, who holds the secrets of the past and the keys to all the doors Dessa wishes to open. As she spends more time with Chris, Dessa begins to realize that he isn’t human – or at least not a normal one. His mysterious powers leave Dessa questioning the very foundation of the world she grew up in, and when Chris finally opens the door to Dessa’s future, she finds herself reluctant to walk through it.

As a newly Awakened Keeper – a God in the form of a human with the power to control one of the elements of nature—Dessa learns of her affinity for Light, but as she and her friends try to remember everything from their dark pasts, the evil they knew then has followed them to the present. But unfortunately for them, none of them can remember who that evil might be.

With that evil destroying the bonds that hold them so close to one another, wreaking destruction upon the world, and attempting to claim Dessa’s life at every available turn, Dessa realizes that her true destiny can no longer be avoided.

When it all comes down to it, Dessa must either forfeit herself, her power, and her will to live, or she must give up the lives of the entire world – of those she sought to protect. Can she make the ultimate sacrifice? Or is she just as spineless as the enemy believes her to be?

COVER IS NOT FINAL!!

"I could only hope my friends would win. I couldn't think about what would happen if they lost. If we lost, it was over. Fighting with the Hunters was a death sentence. Either they died, or we did. The loser's punishment in a game like this . . . was death."

Twelve years after the conclusion of Poison, the adventure continues when Balthazar and his brothers initiate a plan to bring about the destruction of Dessa and her friends by resurrecting the Lord of Hell, Orion. Having been locked into the stars as punishment for causing the death of the ancient world, Orion is lying in wait for his sons to make good on their promise and bring him back to life.

The lives of the Keepers are threatened constantly, and Dessa realizes that once again, she is the key to everything. Dessa's past life as a Keeper comes back to haunt her when her memories begin to fully return after millennia of remaining buried in the darkness, and the harsh realizations she encounters just might be enough to break her. With nowhere else to turn, Dessa finds herself running into the arms of the very man she had vowed to destroy: Balthazar.

Can Dessa rise to the challenge and expel her enemies for eternity? Or will she fall to her own darkness as she struggles to define the person she truly wants to be? With allegiances tested, the bonds of love broken, and the tenuous line between ally and foe becoming completely nonexistant, the Keepers are in for the toughest fight of their lives.

“Let’s get one thing straight,” he said to me, holding my face in his hands. “When push comes to shove and only one of us has the chance to live, remember this.” His thumb gently touched my cheek before he released me. “I will always choose you. I’d let myself die; I’d even let the others die. But not you. I will always choose to protect you.”

Now fourteen, Kenna Calder continues to search for her abducted best friend Blake, hoping that somehow they can work together to find the Moonstone Medallion and give back hope to her family. But finding the Medallion isn't Kenna's only problem. A voice in her head that sounds eerily like her deceased mother begins to instruct Kenna how to become what her mother used to be: the Keeper of Light and Darkness.

Relieved to still have a piece of her mother with her, Kenna and her cousin Robyn secretly meet up with their estranged grandfather to help break Blake out of Korinthos Manor. Elsewhere, Chris falls into a comatose state after Dessa's death and remains an emotionless shell begging for solace. And strangely enough, the one man who succeeds in getting him out of this rut is none other than his nemesis and competitor for Dessa's affections: Balthazar.

In the finale of the Keeper of Light Trilogy, faith and love are pit against deceit and hatred, bringing back the darkest secrets of the past in a war that will either save the earth . . . or destroy it.(less)
