DARK SUMMER by Lizzy Ford Promo Event
Dark Summer (Book I, Witchling Trilogy) by Lizzy Ford
Young Adult Paranormal * Release date: August 16
A girl with a broken past and a dark secret. A boy with a twisted future and no second chances. When they meet, it just might cost them their souls.
Sixteen-year-old Summer doesn’t expect the new boarding school to be any different than the rest: a temporary stay where everyone will turn against her after a few weeks. Until she meets the rest of the students at this special school and realizes she’s not the only one with magic in her blood. Accustomed to the concrete jungle of LA, she gets lost one night in the forests of the Rocky Mountains and meets Decker, the boy who will become the Master of Night and Fire on his eighteenth birthday. Their connection is instant and dangerous, for both will be forced to choose between Light and Dark, life and death, love – and their souls.
One choice. One soul. One price.
An excerpt:
“You
want to dance here?” she asked, taking it. “There’s no music.”
Decker
swept her into his arms. “We don’t need music.”
They
didn’t. Her touch made him shudder, and their bodies synced as they did every
time they danced. The music originated from their entwined souls. The blue
flames of his magick traveled over her at each point where their bodies
touched. Like a switch turning off, the chaos in his mind disappeared. His body
relaxed, and he sensed her body yield as well.
“You’re
not talking about dancing,” she said.
“No,
I’m not,” he replied, heart quickening. He was lost in her dark gaze and soft
scent, both girly and earthy. “I’m talking about this, whatever this is. I
wasn’t sure you felt it.”
“I
do. I just … I’m afraid of what it means.”
“You’ll
fear it more when I tell you what I am.”
She
tensed but didn’t look away or try to move away. Pressed together, their bodies
kept the innate rhythm.
“What?”
she asked at last.
Decker
drew a breath. Fear trickled through him at the thought of her rejection. He
couldn’t live with himself if she walked away. He couldn’t live with himself if
he tricked her into being with him, and she found out in two weeks what that
really meant. She’d hate him.
“Decker,
what?”
“When
Beck and I turn eighteen, he becomes the Master of Light, and I become the
Master of …”
She
stumbled and stopped in place, staring up at him. Her breathing grew fast and
erratic, the pulse in her wrist beating like a machine gun against his hand.
“Fire
and Night,” she finished in a voice almost too quiet to hear.
He
nodded, throat tightening.
Her
gaze went to the blue fire traveling up and down her arms. Decker looked at it
as well, unable to stop the creep of his magick into her body. It acted as if
they were one body, not two, and wouldn’t stay inside him. She said nothing.
Decker shifted away and released her, expecting the rejection to follow. The
effect she had on him faded without disappearing completely.
“I’m
sorry, Summer,” he whispered. “I understand.”
He
turned to walk away. The chaos and fury returned to his head. He walked a few
steps and was about to run for the darkness of the forest when her cool hand
touched his arm. Decker stopped without turning.
