For Alexis and Alex life has been great. They have loving
parents, great friends and live a life every teenager dreams. However, they are
adopted and Alexis struggles with wanting to know who their real parents are
and not wanting to hurt her adopted parents. Then, a stunning guy moves across
the street from them. One who has a secret past and seems to know things about
Alexis. One who does mysterious things and leads her to other mysterious
persons. One who pushes her to discover her extraordinary birth family and the
truth between mythology and religion.
Alexis must pick up the broken pieces of her heart and
pull herself together because she has a mission: To awaken the sleeping gods.
When she is at the point of giving up, wearing her pretend smiles and feels
like there is nothing left of herself, her friend becomes her savior. Patryck
helps put Alexis back together again and in return Alexis sees him as something
more than a friend…
Together with her brother, Alex, her father, Edmund, and
a team of angels they make their way to Mount Latmos, to awaken the gods. But
obstacles are in their way, one of them being Cole, the traitor, the one who
shattered Alexis’ heart.
New friends and family she never thought she would meet
will come to aid Alexis.
…And a love will blossom that will redefine the saying,
“Love you forever.”
“I’m
going to be normal for once. Going to have a frickin’ latte in frickin’ Italy
because that’s what normal people do here.” Normal. I’ve convinced myself that
I am just a girl, on vacation, before college. There is me, my brother and my
adopted parents. I need to call them by
the way.
I walk up to the counter and
order a drink. “Ciao. Vorreiun caffèlatte, per favore.”
“Quattro euros,”
the cashier demands. I hand him the money and go to sit down by the window and
watch the people walk by. When my drink is called I recieve it and then go back
to people watching. I free my mind, only concentrating on the world passing by.
This feels good.
This feels normal. I’m a girl, in Italy, enjoying a summer vacation. As was
planned. A whole year has almost gone by since the craziness that is my life
became my life. And to think, last summer I spent all my time trying to find
out information on who my parents are and now this summer I know who they are
and I’m still trying to find one of them.
Stop thinking about it!
Lexi has fulfilled her destiny and now the gods have
awakened, but is that a good thing?
Now, Lexi lives in a world that is on a global collapse.
The gods are angry that they have been forsaken and are seeking revenge on
humanity. The oceans are in turmoil, tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes,
volcano eruptions and famine are causing global chaos, and the sun is being
held hostage in an astrological phenomenal, never-ending solar eclipse by the
avenging Helios.
Then, there is the problem of Zeus’ threat. Lexi must
choose between giving herself to him or watching the “abominable” angels die by
his hand. Not to mention, Hera, Zeus’ wife, is proposing her own jealous-driven
proposition to Lexi: stay away from her husband or the angels and everyone dear
to her will die. Lexi sees no way out of either predicaments and it puts a
strain on her relationship with Cole. Will she lose him either
way?
way?

Favorite Lines “I wanted to come see you, but thought it
best to let your anger wind down first. You have quite a temper on you.”
“I will wait for as long as it takes. I’ll wait forever.”
“I never thought I would have the strength to leave you,
but I’m certain now that this is the best thing for you. It would be selfish
for me to continue to be with you when you deserve so much more. I have put you
in danger just by being with you and not because of what I am, but because of
who I am. I never told you much about myself. You know I avoided telling you
many times. It’s because I didn’t want you to see the monster in me. With you,
I had redemption.”

Favorite Lines “But I cannot smile. Not a real smile.
It’s the ‘I’m-really-alright. See-my-mouth-is-turned-up’ smile. Almost fools
everyone. I feel like my life is being puppeteered.”

again,”
