Beatrice Walker thought she lived in a normal world—that is until she learned she’s a living hostel for an alien energy source, and apparently the answer to preventing extinction.
Bea has no memory of her last moments with her mother. The week they’d gone missing is a complete mystery. Suddenly moved back to her hometown with her father, Bea has rekindled her friendship with her two best friends—and seems to have caught the attention of an arrogant, yet gorgeous boy named Cash Kingston. But there’s more to Cash than his annoying attitude and good looks. Cash isn’t human, and he’s now in charge of protecting Bea from those who know what she keeps safe inside her: the energy source that once belonged to his murdered girlfriend.
Tensions mount as Bea learns her energy source must be paired with the one Cash holds to protect both their planets from an imminent threat. But what Bea doesn’t realize is there’s more to her than being human a host, that her feelings for Cash are not just a prophetic plan that will save their planets, and that the fate of everything lies in her choices.
An
excerpt from the Connection:
I closed the
distance to a sliver of space and pressed my lips to his. As the hum inside of
me intensified, I sunk my fingers into his flesh, gripping at his hard biceps.
Responding to me, he coaxed my lips open, but instead of kissing me, he
breathed me in. My senses whirled as my finger traveled up and around his neck,
pulling him in closer. Desire fluttered in my stomach while his hands gripped
my hips tighter. A small whimper of pleasure escaped from my mouth as Cash
caught my lower lip between his teeth. He lifted me up. My legs wrapped around
his waist while my thighs tightened above his hips. His hands gripped my back,
pulling me closer to his body.
Our faces
pulled apart as our eyes locked. Something between us changed, had been
changing.
I slid down
Cash’s body never breaking eye contact. As my feet landed on the ground, Cash
attempted to back away. His eyes were intense and searing. His irises changed
into a hundred colors, more than I’ve ever seen before. Then, as if all the
colors had melded into one, all I saw was purple. The color called to me. Touch
him, a voice inside me said. Touch him. Become one.
My pointer
and middle finger reached for his chest and pressed into his diamond-shaped
scar. I don’t know why I did it. But what I felt next would change my life for
eternity. Energy coursed through my veins bubbling to my fingers, melting their
tips into Cash’s flesh. I couldn’t release them, nor did I want to. I was
adjoined to him; my flesh was his with no beginning or end to either of us. And
then, as if lightning had struck me, my wrists and ankles felt like they were
on fire, and I screamed. Bloodcurdling screams.
About Dana Claire:
When author Dana Claire had several poems
published as an elementary school student, she was hooked and writing became
her passion. A shared dream of hers and her mother’s, she promised her dying
mother that she would become a published author and that dream has been
realized with The Connection.
Dana believes that a good story is made through strong character development; when readers become attached to the characters’ emotional state and are invested in their objectives. She believes that the beauty of reading is that one can live a hundred lives within the stories of books. Her own stories come to her in her dreams, and she wakes up with book ideas.
Dana’s family is very supportive of her writing and the creativity and sentiment driving it. Enjoying bicoastal living between Los Angeles and New York, Dana says she “lives the best romance in the world being married to the most amazing man she could ever ask for.” The Connection was her debut YA novel, the first volume in the Blood-Light trilogy. The Reclaimed Kingdom is her second novel.
