I actually just discovered this book yesterday! Elizabeth started following me on Twitter, and I go through my new contacts at least once a week or so to see who I’d like to follow back. When I found out that she was an author well…of course I had to find out what book she had written!

Off I went, and stumbled upon this. It sounds so amazing! As a lover of all things fantasy I am constantly on the lookout for new books :). After reading the synopsis I have decided that this book must definitely be mine!

The Light of Asteria by Elizabeth Issacs

Goodreads Summary:
If Nora Johnson hadn’t been on campus that day she would have never known her true destiny. Helping her friends move into the dorm that she wanted to call home, Nora accidentally collides with mysterious stranger, Gavin Frey. His very first touch sends flames through her heart. The world seems different-something within her has changed.

Nora tries to resume her mundane life, but she is now consumed with the one whose very presence ignited her soul, the one with eyes of emerald. Nora soon learns that an energy buried deep within has been unleashed. She now wields unimaginable power and has become Gavin’s source, his strength.

Her newfound joy is shaken when she discovers that Gavin is not who he appears to be and she has been thrust in the middle of a war of mythical proportions. Negativity has allowed all things evil to flourish, the earth is under siege. The fate of creation hinges on the power within her heart. Will she be strong enough to survive?

A gripping tale of unbounded love and ancient power, The Light of Asteria will take you on an epic adventure filled with war, treachery, and demons, as well as unimaginable delights.
