An excellent introduction to The Chosen series. made me want to keep reading and the author provided the first chapter of the next novel so that readers do just that, so buckle up for a supernatural adventure destined to be spread over many years and to culminate with half-brother against half-brother to dominate the world, or so two factions believe and are determined to ensure their child is the triumphant one. And stuck in the middle is their mother, and the man who appears to be The Chosen her protector. A rollicking read. no reviews | add a review
Belongs to SeriesThe Chosen (1)
Everything Emma Thompson owns fits in a suitcase she moves from one roach infested motel to another. She and Jake, her five year old son who can see the future, are running from the men intent on taking him. Emma will do anything to protect him even when it means accepting the help of a stranger named Will. Jake insists she needs Will, but Emma's never needed help before. And even though she's learned to trust her son, it doesn't mean she trusts Will. Mercenary Will Davenport lives in the moment. Hauling Emma to South Dakota should have been an easy job, but his employer neglected to tell him about Emma's freaky son and the gunmen hot on her trail. Instinct tells him this job is trouble, but nothing can prepare him for Jake's proclamation that Will is The Chosen One, who must protect Emma from the men hunting her power. A power she doesn't know she has. Will protects Emma and Jake on a cross-country chase from the men pursuing them, while struggling with memories from his past, his apprehension of Jake, and his growing attraction to Emma. Will's overwhelming urge to protect Emma surprises him, especially since it has nothing to do with his paycheck and possibly everything to do with the tattoo Jake branded on his arm. Rich and powerful men are desperate to capture Emma, and Will must discover why before it's too late. No library descriptions found. |

The question is – what is Jake, and what is Emma? Emma doesn’t know why the men want Jake and she doesn’t know that Will’s intentions are not what they seem. And I won’t tell anything more, lest I give something away. The other books in the series are Hunted, Sacrifice and Redemption – and they are all a roller coaster ride of twists and turns. ( )
