Publisher's summary

In an event that shakes the foundations of the world, thousands find themselves with new powers. Initially thought to be miracles of science, prejudice and fear soon bring danger from the darkness.

Fenris Trygg lost everything he loved when the Gifting came. Cynical and bitter, he keeps himself at a distance from everyone, especially those who care about him the most. But when a charming redhead crosses his path, he may have met the one person who can tear down his walls.

Orphaned at age seventeen, Sara Gardien is vivacious and bright, while hiding a dark past. The child of Gifted parents, she shows no signs of a Gift, and fits into neither social caste. Determined to make her own way, she sets her sights on what she wants and allows nothing to stand in her way.

Two damaged souls find each other, but when a new threat strikes, can they fight past the pain to stay together and defeat a common enemy? Or will the Gifting ultimately lead to their death and destruction?

With X-Men vibes and a sprinkling of folklore, this sci-fi romance will have you asking the question—when undeniable sparks happen between two people, is it science or magic?

Swoony X-Men meets the first season of The Flash

I loved this twisty, action-packed story about a group of people who were granted power by a big event. At first, the Gifted are accepted and acclaimed. But then jealousy sets in and persecution follows. Reminds me of a Tricia Goyer WWII novel - a high compliment indeed! There’s also an X-Men meets that first fun season of The Flash on the CW vibe with distrusted heroes, people guarding their hearts, moments of fun heroism, romance, heartbreak, and deep sacrifice.

I adored Fen, a swoony, flawed guy with a broken heart of gold who wants to save everyone around him. He’s a bit of bad boy, a bit of superhero, and all heart.

Loved it!

Amber, I thoroughly enjoyed this story! I cannot wait to hear more. It was creative, action packed, romantic and kept me on the edge of my seat. I thought about being late for church to listen to the last 5 minutes. So glad you are sharing your gift with the world.

Great Listen

Unleashed has all the things. Action, found family, friendship, and office romance. Throw in some supernatural abilities and you’ve got a hit! Magnus does a great job, his warm earthy voice perfect for our coffee loving MC, Fenris.

The office meets X-men

This books is just so good!!!!!! I love the banter and the romance and the supernatural aspects of this book. It gave me all the wonderful feelings. The author has the talent for bringing me to the highest level only to throw me in the the lowest lows. She is a wizard…. It’s a must read!!!!
