The Therens: Secrets Beneath Scar by Cyndi Brec New Release

Help me congratulate Cyndi on her new release! Here's the blurb and an excerpt:

HOPE CARRIES A CRUEL PRICE AND DEMANDS PAYMENT.

Sixteen-year-old Callie Tresham is haunted by her parents’ brutal murder—an assassination she foresaw. As she struggles to conceal the curse of her supernatural powers, she faces a new trial, surviving public school.

THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS AN ACCIDENT.

When a menacing photo ignites a quest for truth, the origin of Callie’s powers exposes the threat of a sinister conspiracy. She’ll have to use every skill in her arsenal to outsmart a relentless adversary who wants her dead.

SHE MAKES A DANGEROUS BARGAIN.

Yet, the deal grows deadlier. The threats increase, the romance grows cold, and the death toll rises. Everyone has a price or secret to exploit. Worse, she finds legends are codes revealing history’s dangerous truths.

She has two choices: conquer or die.

 

EXCERPT:

I’ve always thought memories shaped my future, which is not so much different than how music can affect my mood, especially when I moved my fingers across the guitar’s neck, strumming a softer note. The minor chords set a deep tone and sometimes cut through the pain, but lately, the melody echoed as strongly as the danger of my faulty visions.

Death didn’t always announce itself, but I should’ve felt or seen it coming. Yet, deciphering images of danger were as deceptive as piecing together sections of my broken past. Clarity was a skill polished by someone with experienced judgment, not a freaky seer with vision malfunctions.

If I’ve learned anything, the discrepancies between the past, present, and future are a never-ending circle. I’m stuck between who I am, who I want to be, and who I should be.
