Into Darkness Synopsis:

In New Vienna, capital of the oppressive global government formed after the Flash, three things are certain: the sun is poisonous, speaking out is dangerous, and being different will get you killed.

And Lumina Bohn is extraordinarily different.

Living in terror of discovery, Lu knows nothing of her past?but she knows she must pretend to be human to survive. When an incident at work triggers her astonishing powers, she becomes the target of an international manhunt. Only one person can save her: Magnus, the enigmatic stranger haunting her dreams.

Magnus rescues the outcasts called Aberrants from capture and torture. As Lu begins exploring her powers among her people, her feelings for Magnus intensify. He's determined to stay emotionally distant, yet their smoldering passion soon becomes impossible to resist.

But when a shocking revelation threatens the lives of every remaining Aberrant, Lu and Magnus must risk everything, confronting their enemies in an explosive final stand to save their kind from the darkest fate of all: extinction.

Excerpt :

She sighed and closed her eyes, resigned to a long, sleepless night of tossing the sheets.

And then.

She was standing in an enormous field of waist-high grain, the breeze rippling waves over its golden surface. The sun shone bright overhead. A lone hawk soared high, high up in the clear cerulean sky. The scene was beautiful, peaceful, and utterly silent.

Little dragon.

Lu turned. There behind her stood a handsome young man. His long, dark hair was braided in two plaits that hung halfway down his chest, his brown eyes shone with welcome. He was tall and his bearing was proud, and she recognized him at once.

Grandfather!

Edward Fastwater, he corrected with a grin. Otherwise known as Running Bear.

But you’re so . . . young!

He laughed, without noise, his head thrown back, white teeth glinting in the sunlight. The soul doesn’t age the way the body does, little dragon.

Lu looked around, marveling at the endless, restless field of grain. Black hills jutted into the horizon. In the far distance, a lazy column of smoke twined up from the chimney of a lone house. Where are we?

He moved closer, his palms open, skimming the heads of the grain. Near where I grew up. I visit here often.

She turned her face to the sun, watching the hawk soar on an updraft of wind. It’s beautiful.

For a moment, his face darkened. His warm eyes grew serious. The world was a very beautiful place, once. It can be again, but only with great sacrifice.

Lu looked at him sharply, arrested by the word. Sacrifice?

He regarded her, still with that somberness, the wind stirring his braids around his shoulders. All of nature is checks and balances, little dragon. When the scale swings too far one way, it’s inevitable that it will turn and swing the other. For every day, there’s a night. For every winter, a spring. For every gift . . . a price.

A rush of cold wind tossed Lu’s hair into her eyes. She felt a change in the air, a sense of pressure, a gathering and a girding up, as if the sky and field and the earth itself tensed in expectation. Then in the sky above the black hills appeared two spots of brilliant, glinting white, moving fast as falling stars.

What is that?

Young Grandfather turned, scanning the horizon. His face cleared. Ah. Your sister is on a Dreamwalk, too.

I don’t understand. What’s happening? How is this possible?

Her confusion was met with a gentle smile. All you seek can be found in this way. Focus your mind. Open your spirit. And look. Remember, there’s nothing that can elude you here. You knew this as a child. You must relearn it as a grown woman.

Lu watched the spots of white grow closer, and closer still. But they weren’t spots at all; they had wings and tails and long, elegant necks . . .

They were dragons.
