Enslavement Excerpt: 

 

The full moon’s silver rays seeped through the narrow slits of the barred window that sat high in the barrack’s stone walls. With a dirt encrusted fingernail, sixteen-year-old Azika traced the slim rods of light falling on her arm like shadowy prison bars, devoid of warmth. It mirrored the cold, hollow grief gripping her gut as she tried to push the nightmare from her mind, but the haunting screams of the dying and smell of burning flesh repeated in her mind until her stomach rolled.

Despair clung to her like a filthy coat, sending a shiver down her spine. The rusty bunk squeaked under her shifting weight. She pulled her musky wool blanket up to her chin for warmth, but not all the trembles were from the chilly predawn air. The dream was always there, waiting every time she closed her eyes, but this time it felt so real. The images dancing behind her eyelids were as vivid as the reality around her. The noise, the blood, the loved ones lost...

Azika shook her head, desperate to knock the dream from her mind before tears found a way through her shield.

 

 

Back Blurb:

 

Sixteen-year-old Azika is a slave in the Kongul Mining Camp for as long as she can remember. Cursed with beauty, she is forced to hide under dirt and filth to keep the guards at bay, but there is one who knows what lies beneath the grim and will stop at nothing to have her. Struggling to hold tight to her courage, Azika finds herself sentenced to the dangerous exploration tunnels.

Befriending a fellow crew member, who remembers life outside this prison, Azika dares to believe they can escape and finally unravel the mysteries surrounding her life. Even with Bear’s help, the odds are stacked against them. For how does one escape a mountain and the guards surrounding it?

Indelible by Lani Woodland

My thoughts:

Wow. If you love ghost stories with a mystery that could kill, then you will love Indelible. Plus, the romance is awesome.

 Indelible is a stellar sequel to Intrinsical! It’s packed with mystery and near death experiences. Lol. No pun intended. I really enjoyed the twist and turns and the characters. Yara will blow you away in this book. It is fun to see her grow into her powers. I really liked her Grandma Vovo.  It was fun to finally get to really experience her character and fall in love with her personality. Brent, of course, is still a heart throb and oh so endearing. Chel doesn’t disappoint, either. Her corky personality and her mad researching skills were very entertaining.  There were many times I laughed out loud, during the book, and other times that I nearly cried—such a great story.

A big thumps up to Lani Woodland for an amazing story filled with tension and romance! Can’t wait to see what the third installment will bring!

Book description per Goodreads:

            Sixteen-year-old Yara Silva has always known that ghosts walk alongside the living. Her grandma, like the other females in her family, is a Waker, someone who can see and communicate with ghosts. Yara grew up watching her grandmother taunted and scorned for this unusual ability and doesn t want that to be her future. She has been dreading the day when she too would see ghosts, and is relieved that the usually dominant Waker gene seems to have skipped her, letting her live a normal teenage life. However, all that changes for Yara on her first day at her elite boarding school when she discovers the gene was only lying dormant. She witnesses a dark mist attack Brent, a handsome fellow student, and rushes to his rescue. Her act of heroism draws the mist s attention, and the dark spirit begins stalking her. Yara finds herself entrenched in a sixty-year-old curse that haunts the school, threatening not only her life, but the lives of her closest friends as well. Yara soon realizes that the past she was trying to put behind her isn't going to go quietly.
