Romance Paranormal
Raina Richmond is a good girl. She's smart, gets excellent
grades in school, and never breaks the rules. Her parents
love her but they work a lot in a lab that Raina knows
little about. They do insist that she take a special vitamin
every morning, though, and sometimes Raina wonders why they
are so insistent about that. She even wonders what would
happen if she decided not to take it one morning. But she
would never disobey her parents.
There are some new things going on in Raina's life lately,
though, that are causing her to question whether everything
she has ever believed about herself and her life are true.
It all seems to start with the day she meets the new boy in
school, Brent Alexander. He seems to be quite drawn to her,
which is something new to Raina. She doesn't date because
she never sees that guys are interested in her. But Brent
attaches himself to her and is relentless in his pursuit.
When Raina realizes that she is also attracted to him, they
start to get to know each other better. But Raina feels very
connected to Brent almost immediately and she doesn't
understand that. She is full of questions but she may not be
ready for the answers that she gets as they will change her
life in ways that she never thought possible.
It is hard to say a lot about ETERNAL MIXTURE without
giving away the rather unique plotline. Shevaun DeLucia has
created a special place in the ordinary world that takes the
reader beyond the realm of normalcy. She has an excellent
grasp of teenagers/young adults and how they think. The
reader is taken by the hand and led into a magical forest of
danger and love that lasts forever. I found myself drawn
into this world and wishing that it could be real.
More than once I hated having to stop reading it to take
care of the mundane things in my world. ETERNAL MIXTURES is
a book that will capture you from the beginning and hold you
in its very firm grasp until the final page. Raina and Brent
are characters that you don't want to leave and hope to hear
more from in the future.
Ms. Delucia is a remarkable new writer that I will be
keeping an eye on. She has left me thirsty for her next
book.
SUMMARY
If you had the chance to start your life over, would you
take it? If you were told you would live for eternity, would
you embrace it? If a stranger told you he was your soul
mate, would you believe it? Raina Richmond has played it safe her entire life. She has
never broken the rules. That is, until Brent Alexander
walked straight into her life, causing havoc. Turning her
world upside down. Brent is the new kid in town. He is every girl’s fantasy:
adorable, charming, chiseled, and the typical boy Raina
usually steers clear of. But there is just something about
him she can’t seem to resist. Safe is no longer an option
for her. For him, she breaks all the rules. What she doesn’t realize is that he holds the key to her
past, present, and future. Once he reveals the reasons
behind their irrevocable connection, she will unlock the
answers to all of her questions, and her life as she knows
it will never be the same again.
