The world is dangerous – but love will kill
you.
Little did Serena Jackson know that one
simple, flirty remark to an anonymous guy online would lead to her world being
changed forever.
She doesn’t know him, but inexplicably, is
drawn. She knows it is wrong but she agrees to meet.
His real name is Kai. He is beautiful. And
immediately Serena feels herself blindly falling for him even though she senses
a lie. She knows he is hiding something and it terrifies her.
What she doesn’t realise is that her entire
life has been built on secrets and lies. The people she loved left her in the
dark for a reason.
She trusted them. She trusts Kai. But as he
pulls her straight into the heart of the danger the lies and deadly secrets are
revealed. They overwhelm her, and the person she once was no longer exists as
she is thrown into a ruthless world of elemental forces. The price of truth is
her life—and now the world wants her dead.

About the Author
Mia Hoddell lives in the UK with her family
and two cats. She spends most of her time writing or reading and loves anything
paranormal. Mia always had a love of writing but never reading. She was more
interested in sports and hated sitting still - despite getting three poems
published before the age of sixteen. Finally though, she found some novels that
captured her interest and developed a love of reading which is now one of her
favourite hobbies.
Mia began with poems before moving on to
short stories. Although she enjoyed this, Mia found she had too much to tell
with too little space, so later on she created her first series 'The Wanderer
Trilogy' and from there other ideas have emerged. With a total of nine books
planned at this moment, she is busy working on her second series 'Elemental
Killers' before moving onto the next idea on her ever growing list.

***Excerpt***
Happy with the amount of photos I had
collected I started to head back out of the forest, still flicking through my
shots. As well as close ups, I had taken a few landscapes and as I was almost
at the edge of the forest I noticed something in one of the photographs that
made me stop.
In the left hand corner was a figure that
looked mostly human, but was blurred as if they were moving on the
spot.
A cold shudder shot through me.
Looking over my shoulder I became slightly
panicked and felt as if someone was following
me.
My eyes flicked and searched the shadows.
Even though there was no sign that anything had ever been behind me, the forest
looked different now - dark and threatening.
Instinctively I broke away and ran, still
clutching the camera that was displaying the freaky image. Surrounded by trees
I didn’t stop until I was free of the forest and back in the open light and
sight of my house.
Throwing open my door, I slumped against
the inside of it, regaining my breath from the short sprint. Once I had
recovered I looked down at the photo once more, just to make sure that I hadn’t
been seeing things. The old saying “the camera never lies,” came into my mind
and for the first time I wished it not to be true. Sure enough though, as I
looked down at the screen, the figure was still there and this time I noticed a
red and orange glow around where its feet should have been. The image almost
looked like the person was on fire but I thought I would have surely noticed if
there had been a burning man in front of me.

Years ago, demons were forced out of the earth’s realm by a band of supernatural fighters, banished from the place and its people in the aftermath of a horrific war. It should’ve ended there – would’ve – if not for the final demon’s claw snagging on the open portal. What felt like victory became only a reprieve, the winning warriors understanding that the tear would spread, and the demons eventually would escape exile. It was only a matter of time, and a need for future defense – a question of genetics and essences, magic and power. 
This much anticipated sequel to the New York Times Bestseller Impossible – a fantasy full of suspense, mystery, and romance – will appeal to fans of Beautiful Creatures, Raven Boys,and Wicked Lovely.
