Legacy

A fierce guardian. A guilt-ridden lawyer. A legacy of blood and magic. Edie Payne leads a double life. To the world, she is the chaotic, loving foster mother of four children and the owner of the picturesque Holland Manor. In secret, she is the guardian of a terrifying legacy, training in the dark to protect her Gifted children from a war that has been brewing for centuries. Edie knows how to handle daemons and shadowmen. She doesn't know how to handle Beckett Lawrence. Cold, arrogant, and devastatingly handsome, the high-powered lawyer arrives from Norway with one goal: to take custody of his niece and return to his orderly life. He is the storm that threatens to tear Edie's found family apart. As the legal battle turns into a war of wills, the hatred between them ignites a scorching attraction Edie cannot afford to feel. But the courtroom isn't the only battlefield. When the shadows lengthen and ancient enemies breach the manor's wards, Edie realizes that Beckett isn't just a threat to her heart-he is a piece of the puzzle she never saw coming. As incredible powers awaken within the children and secrets of blood and darkness are revealed, Edie must decide if she can trust the man trying to destroy her world in order to save it. In a battle between duty and desire, falling in love might be the deadliest legacy of all.
