Emerald in Between - Lillis, Kiersten

. .

Résumé :
Is a glimpse of the future a gift...or more dangerous than ignorance? Home is supposed to be a haven. But for Talullah Bridgestone, the opportunity to safely grieve her losses is short-lived. A prophetic vision suggests the unthinkable: the sorceress Renevelda will return. And Talullah's home will burn. Convinced her emerald's power can direct the future, Talullah consults her great-great grandmother's cryptic journal on a quest to find it. The clues lead her to the Between, a mystical realm where Potential futures become reality, if only for a while. Previewing the future could have dire consequences for an untrained Seer. But, the Between's Guardian will only give up the emerald if Talullah succeeds at an impossible task. And time is running out. More than just the paths of the Potential pull Talullah in opposite directions. Caught between her loyal best friend and a charming boy who should be her enemy, her heart beats with the threat of betrayal. Of feelings unrequited. Of choosing wrong and losing everything. Talullah's home, heart, and the Between itself hang in the balance. Will she earn her third gem and steer the world onto a new, safe path...or will her choices be a catalyst for ruin?...

Biographie:
Kiersten Lillis writes fast-paced, no spice, mythology-inspired fantasy for teens and young adults. A pinch of mystery and something ghost-shaped always seem to work their way into her stories, whether or not she plans for them. Before publishing books, Kiersten edited wedding and event videos, spending hours crying alone at her computer while trying to bribe the author muse. When not writing, she can be found improvising silly songs and bedtime stories for her kids, singing off-key to Taylor Swift, and sipping sweet tea while hiding from the Colorado sunshine....
