Happy Book Birthday! #HC_Harris #Tainted

3/5/2017

 
It's new release time! HC Harris has an amazing story about a young woman in college who is not only dealing with quizzes and assignments but is a Light Soul and has to fight evil! Can you just imagine the late nights? 
Picture
Whoever said college was easy? Certainly not Faye Johnson! With shadow creatures stalking and hunting her from the depths of the darkness, Faye soon realizes that being a Light Soul and destroying the evil that lurks in the shadows, won’t make her freshman year any easier.

With the help of her wisecracking best friend Jack, Faye discovers that her ordinary life is about to change drastically. She has an ancient power that the darkness desperately desires. But being untrained, she can’t protect herself for long. That’s when Gabe, a dangerously gorgeous ex-Dark Soul enters her life - seemingly out of thin air.

Jack and Faye’s friendship is put to the test when she starts training with Gabe. Jack warns her that Gabe is dangerous, but she can’t seem to resist her electrifying feelings for him. Events become deadly when the Dark Souls attack and Faye discovers Gabe’s horrifying secret.

Can she count on Jack to be there for her? Can she trust Gabe with her life? Will she be strong enough to protect herself from the darkness that is desperate to kill her?
​
…And you thought college was easy.

EXCERPT:
Suddenly, he lifted me, boosting me above him and twirling me around in the winter night as the song came to a close. As if I weighed no more than a feather, he slowly lowered me until I was just inches above his face. I let my arms drape around his neck. He looked up at me with burning, passionate eyes. Those walls he so normally hid behind were nowhere to be found. I parted my lips and slowly closed my eyes, ready for his kiss.

A branch snapped in the forest surrounding us. Gabe and I immediately twisted our heads in the direction of the sound.

“Stay here,” he ordered as he gently placed me down and cautiously made his way to the edge of the tree line.

“What is it?” I whisper-shouted after him. “Do you see anything?”

Gabe crouched down low and peered into the forest, his Dark Soul eyes seeing into the depths of the shadows better than my normal human eyes.

“No. I don’t see anything,” he answered. “But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing out there.” I heard a cool chill behind his words, which unsettled me.

“Maybe it was an animal?” I offered.

“Maybe.” His voice trailed off. “Either way, we need to get back inside.”

“FAYE!” I heard someone scream. I spun around just in time to see Jack frantically running across the street, his arms flailing.
​
“RUN!”
