Evertrue (Everneath #3)

by Brodi Ashton

Coming January 21, 2014

Balzer + Bray

Summary:

Now that Nikki has rescued Jack, all she wants is to be with him and graduate high school. But Cole tricked Nikki into feeding off him, and she’s begun the process of turning into an Everliving herself... which means she must feed on a Forfeit soon — or die.

Terrified for her survival, Nikki and Jack begin a desperate attempt to reverse the process using any means possible. Even Cole, who they expected to fight them at every turn, has become an unlikely ally — but how long can it last? Nikki needs to feed on Cole to survive, Cole needs Nikki to gain the throne in the Everneath, Jack needs Nikki because she is everything to him — and together, they must travel back to the Underworld to undo Nikki’s fate and make her mortal once more. But Cole isn’t the only one with plans for Nikki: the Queen has not forgotten Nikki’s treachery, and she wants her destroyed for good. Will Nikki be forced to spend eternity in the Underworld, or does she have what it takes to bring down the Everneath once and for all?

In this stunning conclusion to the Everneath trilogy, Brodi Ashton evokes the resiliency of the human spirit and the indomitable power of true love.

Why I want it:

I am astounded by Nikki and Jack's love story. It's not insta-love, but rather it's the story of how two best friends fell in love. Circumstances forced them apart, but they found their way back together. Then the same force behind those circumstances separated them again, and they had to fight to be reunited once more. I think their close friendship is exacly what created this amazing, truly epic love, and that bond is exactly what's keeping them together over any distance, any time, any dimension. Nikki and Jack are one of my favorite ships, period, and I really can't wait to see the conclusion of their story.

Why I think you should want it:

Seriously, this is an epic love. Epic. I don't use that word casually or lightly. If you like romance, you'll enjoy Everneath. If you like mythology and twists on the traditional myths, you'll like Everneath. If you enjoy adventure, sexy bad boys, impossible odds, a maze with ridiculous obstacles that makes the third task in the Triwizard Tournament look like a jaunt through the park, you'll like Everneath.
