Romance Paranormal

Talos is a magic wielder. He and his comrades in the Overworld Police Agency are fighting to keep an evil wizard in Rohm prison. Vegre has great powers and has been locked away for years. When the OPA gets word of an escape, Talos, Alexy, and Sela are sent to prevent it. Vegre manges to escape leaving Alexy frozen by magic. Only with the aid of the Sacred Tree's magic is he able to escape the spell. He follows the wizard into the human world to see if he can save Sela, pulling magic from the Tree.

Mila has an amazing power to heal. She is a talented artist that paints eggs in a tribute to her ancestors. Her grandmother taught her the ancient Ukranian art as well as many ways of using the eggs to heal. Her abilities come with the downside of epileptic seizures. She is lunching with her friend, Candy, when a seizure strikes. Only when she awakens, will she discover that they aren't what they seem.

When Tal comes to her seeking help in finding Sela and Vegre, Mila will learn that much of what she knew of her family is false. Mila and her family escaped from the Overworld when the other clans sought to kill them. Her Baba tried to teach her what she needed to restore their family honor. Her mother sought to protect her.

As Tal and Mila work together to thwart the wizard's evil plans, each will find their world is not what they thought. Beliefs will be re-examined. They will have to work together to solve the problems they face including the final attempt to save the Sacred Tree.

This is an intense read which captivates the reader and draws them into a world of complex magic. You will not want to put this one down as you follow Tal and Mila on their journey to save the world.
