Book Description:
Angels, Gods, High Ones… Could
anything else find its way into the prophecy caused by their father, Sylis
Shilo, the renowned realm traveler? Vincent understands there were things in
his father’s work he wasn’t privy to simply because his soul was too young, but
how could this be kept a secret from even his brothers? The more he learns, the
more he’s glad he hadn’t known.
The sentinels of Cornerstone Deep
are in for their most difficult challenge yet. The portal to the Spectrum of
the Realms must be sealed, and punishments must be carried out. Will the Gods
take all that is dear to Vincent, James, and Cole Shilo?
“Flesh cannot take away that
which our souls have united.”

Excerpt:
Stars blinked,
and Vincent scowled at the firmament. They mocked him—tiny gems as out of his
reach as the treasure he sought. With a snarl, he scanned the area around the
empty town square, whirled to face Simpson drive, and then jabbed his hand
toward the deserted street of the city’s east side.
“Orvertre!”
The summoning
command echoed through the night and then ebbed into the quiet atmosphere with
no result.
A frog croaked
from Center Creek somewhere within the park to his right. The urban green
rustled and deep shadows waved as the breeze whispered along the tall border
hedges. A cat padded from an alley between the north side commerce onto the
sidewalk and then looked his way. The dim streetlight reflected in its eyes,
two silver discs that taunted alongside the night sky.
With a growl, he
punched his frustration into the air. Blue neon flashed from his fist. The bolt
highlighted the crimson brick storefronts and plowed into the street with a
resounding blast. Asphalt bulleted the commerce, shattering glass behind the
barred windows, and pelted the granite griffin perched on top of the corner
archway of the entrance to Shilo Park.
The cat darted
back the way it came.
Vincent snarled.
Turning toward the city center, he clenched his jaw and glared around the empty
court. How many times have I tried to summon the Mother Earth beads from here
already? Every faithful follower of the gods had come to witness the absence of
Gryffin. When they left, the park was in shambles. It took three weeks to pick
up all the rubble and return the vegetation to its rightful state. He glanced
over his shoulder at the stone gargoyle. The god of conformance couldn’t have
made a more striking statement with that disappearance act—and the beads
couldn’t have been lost at a worst time. Anyone could have stashed them away,
thrilled to find such a keep.
Vincent ground
his teeth together so hard his temples ached. Humidity thickened the early
summer night and carried the sulfuric odor from the west side industries. It
coated his senses with added irritation. Where was the floral scent of Shilo
Park? He needed the sweet comfort it held.
Releasing his
breath, he whispered a vow he didn’t intend to sustain. “Elaina, you will never
touch another magical charm as long as you live.”
He glanced at
his watch and sighed an anxious breath. I need to get home.
How long before
his brothers questioned his excursions? How long could he keep the
disappearance of the relic a secret?
Furling his
cape, he dispersed his elements into a fine mist. He allowed his dark essence
to meander as he flew the length of the boulevard, recalling the crowded scene.
Pilgrimage buggies, tents, covered wagons; they were only a portion of the
massive gathering of faithful that had finally cleared the area.
Irritation
rippled his essence. With a growl, he conceded failure and headed over the
southern apricot orchards to Shilo Manor.
