Beyond (Crossroads Saga Book 3) by Mary Ting Book Cover Reveal and Teaser!

July 26, 2012 0 Comments
Hi my loves! Welcome to Journey with Books! Today we're uncovering the book cover of Beyond, the third book of Crossroads Saga by Ms. Mary Ting.

This book will be released on 9/12/2012.



Isn't this one of the most beautiful covers ever?! 

Book Blurb:
Torn between the past she can't remember and a future she isn’t ready for, Claudia feels at a loss. With unanswered questions, she is certain there is more to her past than just being a venator. Finding the missing pieces in her life won’t be easy because duty calls. When mysterious dark shadows get released, an apocalypse sets in motion. The venators and the alkins must work together once again. Knowing Claudia would be the key to destroying the demons that were released, a familiar stranger appears to protect her. Drawn to the beautiful angel, Claudia finds she must unravel the mysteries of her past in order to help save the world. 

Who is the angel assisting her and why does she feel a strong connection to him? 

Time is running out. Will she discover all the secrets before it’s too late? 

Teaser:

Michael brought Claudia back to Paradisus where they stood on top of the hillside.


“We’re here,” he said, unable to uncurl his wings as she was safely tucked inside.


Claudia looked up, unable to unlock her eyes from his as if she was hypnotized. “Ummm…I
should go,” she finally managed to say. Then she tugged his wings away, afraid if she didn’t, he would never let her go and she wouldn’t want him to.


When he opened up, she took several steps away from him. 


“Thank you. You can leave now.”


“Are you meeting anyone?”


“No,” she shook her head, lowering her eyes away from his, afraid he would know she was lying.


“Then, I’ll stay here.”


“What?” Claudia’s eyes grew wide. “I’m perfectly fine. You can leave now.”


Michael sat on the pebbled ground underneath a tree, leaning against it. He folded his arms around the back of his neck to rest and grin. “It’s a beautiful day. I think I’ll stay here.”


“Umm…” Claudia lost her words for a second. He looked so alluring she had to shake the wicked thoughts out of her mind. 


“But you can’t?”


“Says who?”


“Says…me?” She couldn’t believe Michael was seriously going to stay. He was teasing her and she knew it.


“Why not? This isn’t your property,” he smirked.
“I know it’s not, but I didn’t invite you to stay and I don’t want you here.” Claudia didn’t want to be rude, but she felt that she had no choice. She didn’t want Michael to follow her through the waterfall.


“Hmmm…you kind of hurt my feelings there.” He arched his brows with a frown.


There he goes again, looking so darn sexy even frowning. Ahhh!!! “Are you kidding? The deal was for you to bring me here and leave.”


“No, the deal was for me to bring you here. There was nothing about me not staying.”


“Ahhh! Fine!” Feeling frustrated, she turned. Looking beyond, she noted even more how beautiful this place was. To the right of the hill was where the venators were the last time they were here. To the left of the mountain was where she should go, back to the waterfall, to where Callum was
waiting for her, but she couldn’t get her legs to move. She wanted to stay here with him. 


Unable to decide, she turned to Michael, but to her surprise, he was gone.

Print ISBN:     9781937593780

E-Book ISBN: 9781937593797

Genre: YA Paranormal Romance

Release Date: 1/12/2012

Book Blurb:



As the alkins head back to Crossroads, Claudia 
leads her normal life; but not for long. Having a 
special soul, Claudia attracts danger, and she soon 
finds out who Gamma asked to watch over her. 


The Twelve, known as Divine Elders on Earth, are very much involved when they find out that Aliah, one of the God’s first angels, escaped from the Abyss when the gates were opened by Aden. Needing Claudia’s soul to escape the only place Aliah can reside–a place between Heaven and Earth–he sends his demons in search of all Claudia Emersons on Earth. Taking her soul will enable him to be released from Between and cross over to Crossroads, which would give him immense power. 


As more secrets are revealed Claudia learns about the venators—nephilim, demon hunters.  


Now two opposing forces must work together in order to save Claudia and humanity from the most dangerous angel ever created. But along the way, trust becomes a big issue. 


Will love be enough to keep Claudia and Michael together? 
Who will make the ultimate sacrifice? 
Who will betray them all?




My Thoughts:


Between is the second installment of Crossroads Saga by Miss Mary Ting.

If you love the first book then you'll love the second one even more because everything has been upgraded! More Romance, More Action, More Angst!

I'm actually amazed at how Ms. Mary Ting wrote this book. The flow of the story is even better than the last one. It's even more exciting and a lot sexier. In here, we see how Claudia and Michael struggles because of their forbidden love. Knowing that they will be separated someday takes a toll on them and let's add up Austin, the sexy new Guardian Angel of Claudia who is crazy for her, and then there's Trinity, Michael's ex-girlfriend who wants him back and let's not forget the Fallens and Demons who wants Claudia's soul! Yup, this book is full craziness but the good kind of craziness that it won't let you stop reading it until you get to the last period and even then you'd want more!

Claudia and Michaels's love in much more deeper in here. As I said more sexier encounters and more profound love can be felt while reading their interactions. It just makes me root for them more. The second installment would not disappoint the Claudia/Michael believers out there.

This is one epic tale a real book lover wouldn't even dare to miss. It has everything in it, ROMANCE that would make you believe in the power of love, ACTION that could make your heart beat fast and ANGST that would make you want to pull your hair out and the biggest plus are the gorgeous beings with wings with whom you can't help but fall in love with.

Mary Ting, is one amazing author who has the ability to write with so much heart that every word could be felt which captivates her readers!
