Prologue
Briellyn

Her face is barely recognizable. It’s morphed into something much darker, more demonic. I don’t know this face. The wind beneath her sweeps her long dark locks straight up into the air yet I feel nothing.

 

I’m panting, clearly afraid of the situation. My heart beats so fast and hard that I can feel it in my ears. I don’t know what to make of it though. Two men kneel before her. They mean something to me yet I can’t see their faces. Her long, dark claws dig into their shoulders on either side of her, keeping them subdued.

 
“Leave them alone,” I yell out to her, staring into the eyes of this creature that strikes a sense of fear and loss within me.

 

The darkness inside her has consumed her entirely and there’s no humanity left within her.

 
“You get to choose who lives. Or if they both have to die. You can only choose one though, if you see it fit.” Her voice sounds serpent like and has a faint echo.

 

The room around is so dark that it’s difficult to see much of anything.

 
“Why should I have to choose? Please just let them go.” I cry out, fear and worry dripping from each difficult word.

 
“One may live if we make a trade.” Her tone is delighted by her offer.

 
“Will you take me in their place?” I huff audibly. I’m willing to make the sacrifice for them both.

The Great Balance Description:

Brielle’s business needs a boost and she is wary of her current candidates. But when she meets Eric Windsor, he makes her an offer she can’t refuse with only one condition: she venture on a journey with him to help find something for him.

 

As details of the mission are revealed to her after she’s already agreed, she begins to wonder if she did it for the right reasons by following her heart or just because of a handsome face. Her emotions conflict with her mind and sense of reality while her faith is put to the ultimate test when she realizes things about herself that she never knew was possible.

 

This visionary tale of romance, mystery, and adventure, will keep you on the edge until the end of the journey.
