Shadows of Green & Gold

SERIES: The Immortal Voices: Green & Gold

To save a hidden race, they’ll have to stop a hunter. But what if catching him is only the beginning?

ABOUT THE STORY:

As freshman year draws to a close, Cara finally feels like she belongs. With her new friends by her side—human and Pyx alike—a peaceful summer shouldn’t be too much to ask.

But the memories of last fall’s rescue mission still haunt her. Drawn back to the place where it all began, Cara senses trouble long before the hidden Pyx start vanishing again. When the disappearances escalate, she and her friends set a daring new plan into motion: it’s time they become the hunters.

Their trap works—but the truth it exposes shatters everything she thought she knew. Forced to team up with the very person they were chasing, Cara must confront her doubts and choose who to trust as the worlds of humans and Pyx collide once more.

Because a new threat lurks in the shadows . . . and it’s watching her.

Excerpt

   Pitchers of water and sparkling glasses lined a table along the wall, and she wandered toward it. She bent to fill a glass, but as she raised it to her lips and turned back to the room, her arm bumped the person passing by behind her.

   “Sorry,” she said automatically. Her eyes came up from the glass where the water slopped dangerously close to the rim. Butterflies exploded from her stomach to flutter in her chest.

   The grey-and-gold eyes stayed warm for the first second. Then the face around them clouded over with recognition, and the eyes turned to flat stone.

   “What—” Rhys stopped.

   They stared at each other for a second. Cara lowered the glass she was holding back to the table. She definitely didn’t need to drop it and cause a scene.

   Fortunately, she’d been right about Rhys not wanting to cause a scene here either. He’d had no hesitation about it back at the hospital, but here, he glanced around before turning back to hiss in an angry whisper. “What are you doing here?”

“I encourage all readers to give this series a look. I really believe you’ll not regret the time spent in reading this series and each book will leave you wanting more!”

This book takes you through a whirlwind of emotions! I love the character growth between Cara, Wes, and Jory. Highly recommend this series!

- Natasha

“(This) series is so much fun! It’s a well-balanced YA series that focuses on friendship, dealing with growing up and all of the changes life throws at you, and trying new things. I enjoyed this one more than the first (which is hard to believe because I really enjoyed the first one).
