Ignite Excerpts
Prologue
Kira watched as he languidly stood
up, flexing his muscles as though he had just awakened from a long dream. He
stretched his arms over his head and cracked the bones in his neck before
finally settling his gaze on her. She hardly recognized him, the boy she had
fallen in love with. Where minutes before there had been light and emotion in
his eyes, there was only a black hole, a seemingly endless abyss. Kira had
never seen him look at her that way, like less than food, like vermin, even
since the first time they had met.
"Aren’t you going to run?"
He asked with sinister humor coloring his words. The smirk on his face may as
well have been a knife cutting through her heart. The darkness had always
called him, but Kira had always thought that being with her would be enough to
keep him from crossing over. She saw now that he had surrendered to his nature
and for the first time she felt real fear when he looked at her.
Kira stepped backwards on shaky
feet, trying to digest the question. She didn’t have an answer. How could she
turn her back on him and run away? The man she loved was trying to kill her.
There were no options. Could she forget it all—all the nights they had shared
kissing and swapping secrets—and fight to kill? Or, would she run and admit that
there was no hope that he would return to her?
Kira said his name and reached out
her hand, searching one last time for the man she had lost.
"Yes, honey." The word hit
her like a slap in the face as it rolled off of his tongue drenched in sarcasm.
Kira looked up at the sun, still
hidden behind the shadow of the moon, and sprinted into the tree line behind
her. She couldn’t give up on him now. But, when the eclipse was over, maybe she
would finally find the strength to fight.
First Chapter Excerpt
Finally, she looked at the guy Luke
had called Tristan. He seemed different to her somehow, with jet-black hair
that hung over his eyes a little, and barely visible dimples that played on his
cheeks. His eyes were also an icy blue, but they seemed deeper to her, like
steep ravines she could fall into. He stayed out of the conversation, she
noticed, as if lost in his own thoughts—ones that seemed more troublesome than
the cutting remarks being doled out by his friends. He had a rebel without a
cause look that made him perilous for a girl’s heart.
Suddenly, he turned to Kira and his
eyes seemed to brighten a shade when they landed on hers. He stared, and Kira,
who was never one to back down, returned his look with interest.
"Who are you?" He asked in
a barely audible voice filled with surprise, one just loud enough to attract
the attention of his friends and Luke. Kira melted at the sound. He was
dangerous she knew, but something about him made her feel safe and afraid at
the same time.
"Kira," was all she could
respond with. They both looked at each other, trying to unlock the other’s
secrets.
His friends came to circle her now
and she felt cornered. Fear sparked in her heart, like a quick flash of
lightning. She didn’t quite understand it, but she also couldn’t shake it.
"Well, what have we here?"
Diana leaned in to really look at her and Kira thought she could read shock on
the girl’s face, despite the confidence in her voice. Tristan laid a hand on
Diana’s arm, almost like a warning, Kira thought.
"Diana, back off," Luke
said and tried to come to Kira’s rescue, but it was Mr. Bell who saved her by
running into the classroom very late and very out of breath.
Mid-Book Excerpt:
"Kira, come on," she heard
the command in his deep voice, but couldn't respond. "Kira, wake up."
A hand slapped her in the face, once, twice, a third time and then her eyes
shot open and she tried to breathe, but her throat was stuck. Someone flipped
her to her side as she began coughing, and finally she spit up what seemed like
a gallon of water. Kira laid down again and closed her eyes, wanting to sleep.
"Kira!" She felt one more
smack on her face. "You have to stay awake." She opened her eyes and
saw the blurry outline of a boy with dark hair and pale skin.
"Tristan?"
"Hello," she saw the
corner of his mouth curve upwards despite her uneasy vision.
"What happened?"
"You were being stupid."
She started to remember the wave and wipeout, and then her anger brimmed back
to the surface.
"Only because you were being an
ass," she grumbled and he laughed.
"Come on, try to sit up."
Tristan curved an arm around her back to help lift her up. She noticed, at that
moment, that they both wore only bathing suits and she was basically sitting on
his lap. Kira tried to discreetly look at his chest, which was quite chiseled,
and then she noticed the nice bulge of a bicep in his arm. Kira let her eyes
wander a few moments longer until Tristan picked her up far enough for the pain
in her head to finally hit. She groaned, put a hand to her head and curled into
his body a little more.
"Ow."
"Yeah, your board got you
pretty bad."
"I know." Kira was
starting to get annoyed by his habit of stating the obvious. She pulled her
hand back for a moment. "Crap! I’m bleeding." He stared at her hand,
which was covered in running red liquid, until she put it back to her head.
Kira noticed he was staring again, but this time at her wound. She felt him
lean in closer, inspecting it she hoped. After a minute, she couldn’t take it.
"Tristan, tell it to me
straight. How bad is it?" She felt him jerk as if she had interrupted him
mid-thought.
"Oh. It’s nothing. You’ll be
fine. Might need a few stitches." He sat her up on her own and moved back
a foot.
"Thanks…for helping me, I
mean." She looked at Tristan, saw a few different emotions pass over his
face until he finally settled on the half-smile she had started to like.
Tristan grabbed a shirt from the unguarded towel next to him, looked at it,
looked at Kira, and shrugged. He put it to her head, told her to hold it there,
and helped her stand up.
"Get away from her."
Luke’s voice boomed from behind her. He came barging in and pushed Kira to the
side.
"Chill out, Luke. I didn’t do
anything."
"I don’t care. Leave."
Kira had never heard such anger in Luke’s voice.
"And if I don’t want to,"
Tristan asked. Kira knew he was saying it more to test Luke and less because he
really needed to stay.
"Then," Luke paused,
clenched his fists, looked around, and punched Tristan in the face. For a
moment Kira thought she saw a flashing light, but she quickly realized it must
have been the sun, which had previously been silhouetted behind the two boys.
Tristan fell over and rolled once on the ground.
"Luke! Stop it. He just saved
my life."
"Come on, Kira," Luke
tugged her hand. She glanced back at Tristan, who just nodded to her, and
followed Luke. "We have to take you to the hospital." She didn’t
mention the punch, wanting to wait for a good time. Instead she went with her
friends back to the car, listened to them talk about trivial things to distract
her, allowed Luke to carry her into the hospital, and tried to process the
thoughts churning in her head.
Review:
Ignite
Kira Dawson has moved to South Carolina, everything is new
to her there, friends, school, and experiences.
Kira quickly befriends Luke Bowrey who becomes her closest friend and
warns her against Tristan and his brood of trouble, but is unwilling to say
why. Although Kira tries to heed Luke’s
warning, she can’t stop herself from wanting to know more about the mysterious
Tristan. What Kira discovers is she is
part of the Conduit of Sunlight, a protector to humans against vampires and
Tristan is one of the enemy. Kira feels
deep in her heart that there is something special about Tristan, will Kira put
her trust in someone who could end up being the death or her or will she be his
salvation?
Simmer
Kira continues her relationship with Tristan, while
realizing that her friendship of Luke is slightly fractured when his feelings
for her are revealed. Feeling like she
is having losing her best friend, Kira focuses on her training and begins to
realize her gift as a conduit is unparalled and that Luke seems to be her
anchor. Kira finds herself embroiled in
a vampire attack and following a lead in
finding her mother, who others believe is dead.
Blaze
Knowing what she has to do, Kira makes a choice that ends up
betraying one and following another.
Wanting to find the answers about who she is and what really happened to
her mother. Kira finds that everything
she was hoping for may not be possible and that treachery is running rampant
and in order to survive she may end up hurting those that mean the most to her.
Exciting series. Kira
is a bit unpredictable and often makes choices on impulse sometimes getting
unexpected results. Tristan is the
broody vampire who looks at Kira with hopes of a future, even though she will
age and he will not. Luke the trusty
friend who secretly believes Kira is the one for him, he is a true gentleman
though as he waits on the sidelines hoping to get a chance to win Kira
over. This has been an excellent series
thus far, I found myself frequently unable to put the stories down as Kira
begins to discover more about herself and what she is. Cannot wait until the final installment.
