About this ebook

From USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Hefner

The next generation of Etherya’s Earth begins…

Calinda, daughter of Darkrip and Arderin, has never quite fit in the immortal world. Raised alongside humans, she returned to the realm as the subject of a cryptic prophecy. Feared by some and shunned by others, Callie struggles to understand her place in the kingdom. When a handsome suitor begins to court her, she is taken by his ardent gestures, even if she has doubts.

Stoic Vampyre soldier Brecken grew up far from royal castles and wealthy aristocrats and understands he and Callie are worlds apart. Silently, he guards her and her suitor, falling for her more each time he hears her silken laugh and observes her kindness toward his little sister. He might not deserve her, but he vows to keep her safe.

When Callie’s suitor betrays her by aligning with their enemy, Brecken is there to pick up the pieces. As the final battle with Bakari draws near, Brecken continues to protect Callie, knowing a future between them is uncertain. But Callie is determined to defy the prophecy and prove to her heroic soldier that destinies are never set in stone…

Ratings and reviews

This is a duo review. Both audiobook and ebook. This book was narrated by Wen Ross. And was done superbly. Now don't be upset that Devon Wilcox didn't do this installment. It works for one simple fact.........it's not the original generation. Cryptic Prophecy takes place many many years after The Impassioned Choice. With a new generation to boot and it hits the ground running. Darkrip and Aderin's precious Callie is all grown up now and this is her story and her prophesy. She sadly finds herself engaged to Zadicus. I think he's a cad because it seemed as though he used her insecurity of being unlovable to use her. I just don't like him. BUT on the other side of the coin we have Braken her bodyguard whom just drips with sex. Wink wink. I'm not going to spoil much of the plot, just know it has lots of twists and turns and of course sexy, sexy scenes (my favorite.) DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS!!!!! I've listened to and read #6.5 and #7 is gonna be AWESOME!

Book six of this excellent series tells the story of Brecken and Calinda and their whirlwind escapades as this series spins along with all the heat and passion it can convey. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A thrilling steamy and passionate edition in this series filled with magic and supportive, loving family ties, leading up to a start of new ways in the interactions between the immortals and humans in the future. Riveting. I received an advance review copy and leave this review voluntary Thank you
