Waiting on Wednesday: Exclusive + Giveaway

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases we can't wait to get our hands on. The below synopsis has been pre-released exclusively to The Big Book Binge by the author.
 
Broken (Ancients of Light, #3)
by Heather Fleener
Release Date: August 27th 2013


The Light’s Duty to Protect 
A war over the fate of mankind sparked the creation of the Ancients - Light and Dark - one divinely-created guardians, the other hell-spawned killers. The conflict raged within the Realm for millennia, neither faction triumphant in its purpose. In recent history the Darks have adopted a more surreptitious path - the boom of technology allowing the Dark One to insinuate himself into the midst of those he would most like to destroy. Tragic consequences result when the Ancients of Light pursue the Darkness into the Outer Realm. The Prophecy continues…

Darkness Claimed Her Soul 
The adversity of Kylie’s youth forged an indomitable spirit. A vibrant and strong woman determined to plot the course of her life with room for nothing beyond the next measure of success, Kylie believed in only herself, and most certainly neither destiny nor love. All those tenants were derailed with a single encounter, but the same man that tempted her to live again drew her into the middle of an aged war, the consequence being her own destruction, plummeting her into a hellish existence.

A Warrior Haunted by His Failure 
Sayer’s mission was only to foil the latest plan of the Darks in the Outer Realm and return a few Vampire to Hell. Finding a perfect mortal that tempted him beyond all reason was unforeseen complication. Just when Sayer realizes that his eternity is meant for one alone, Kylie is destroyed by the Darks, and the loss drives him to the pits of despair, revealing events of the past that would best be long forgotten.

Tragedy will Reveal Those of Divine Purpose 
Sayer’s appearance in her life was the catalyst to fulfilling a destiny that has existed since Kylie’s creation. Their fate thwarted by Darkness, both shattered by tragedy, Kylie and Sayer must return to the love that once was while finding absolution and seeking forgiveness, or perish apart. Only once all that was broken is returned to unblemished will God’s own Warriors rise. The beginning of the beginning…

*****
Ever since I finished Chosen and Forsaken by Heather Fleener, I have been anticipating the release of the 3rd book in the Ancients of Light series, Broken. This has been one of those series that has completely caught me off guard.

#1 because they are paranormal romance novels and they contain a little "steam" which can be a shocker when compared to my Twilight days, but it is all written tastefully.

#2 because I usually associated romance novels with not having a story line but Fleener pays as much attention to her character development and plot as she does to the sexual tension between the lead protagonists.

#3 because over the span of a couple weeks I have become completely and utterly addicted to this series.

This thirteen book installment is set in the Realm, where vampires and witches are constantly battling in a war between the forces of good and evil. Each book follows a different lead female and male pair.

Make sure to check out the Author's Giveaway before it ends. Enter and you have a chance to win 1 of 23 prizes including Amazon gift cards, B&N gift cards, signed copies of Chosen and Forsaken, ecopies of Broken and some other sweet swag.
