I love Torin St. James...
I need his strength…
But someone from his past wants me dead.
Raine Cooper is certain of two things: her love for Torin St. James and her destiny to be a powerful seeress. But when she starts having premonitions, they are unclear and disturbing. Worse, they involve Torin. With her mother gone, her father dying, and her best friend in Hel, she is not sure who to talk to.
But when the visions become more personal and she foresees her future with Torin threatened by someone from his past, Raine becomes desperate for answers. Just her luck two new students arrive at her school and they seem to have answers. When with them, her powers are enhanced and her visions become clear. There is only one problem: Torin forbids Raine to see the two girls.
Can their love survive without trust?
Praise for the Seeress
…suspenseful, dramatic and exciting… Raine is surrounded by the most wonderful little group of people, all willing to support her. Even though they are not all related by blood, the love and sense of family is something beautiful… YA Book Addict
After reading Grimnirs I thought this series couldn’t get any better. Boy, I was wrong. Seeress put the bar really high for the next books in the series… Ruty @ReadingDreaming
“Seeress” is the third book of the Runes Series and it’s just as good as its predecessors. The book with its Norse Mythology background and great characters (Raine, Torin, Echo, Cora, Andris, Ingrid….) just sucks you… Stacey M. Cook Amazon reviewer
I swooned, cried, laughed, fretted and cheered. I was guessing with each turn of events. Totally brilliant.… Maureen “I am a 40 something year old female that still loves young adult fiction”
EXCERPT
“You’re back early,” I called out and glanced over my shoulder.
Torin walked away from the mirror portal in the living room. Leather jacket, jeans hugging narrow hips, and windblown hair wrapped in pure deliciousness couldn’t begin to describe him. He sauntered to where I stood, his sexy smile melting my insides.
“I had a feeling you needed me,” he said, the British lilt stroking my senses. He came to stand behind me and ran his knuckles up and down my arms, his movements slow and sensual. I shivered and leaned against him, welcoming his heat. “Your arms are freezing.”
“I went outside to talk to Blaine.”
“Blaine visited you?” He cross-crossed his arms around my waist and pulled me closer, curving his body into mine. I closed my eyes and inhaled. He smelled amazing. But when he rubbed his cheek against the side of my head, I tilted my head, so our faces could touch. His skin was hot.
“Freckles?”
“Hmm…”
“You’re purring.”
I was. “No, I’m not.”
“Am I distracting you again?” he whispered.
He always did. “No. Did you ask me something?”
*****
Cora and Echo were making out by her car when we pulled up. The two never failed to make me smile. Psycho Maliina had used her Norn powers to completely mimic Cora and fooled us for weeks. We didn’t know Cora had been admitted to a psyche ward during those weeks because Maliina had marked her with some jerked up runes and she could see souls. Like any sane person, Cora had thought she was seeing ghosts and going crazy. Meeting Echo had changed her perception of things.
“Come on,” Torin said, wanting us to leave the couple alone.
I dug my heels in. “I want to talk to Cora.”
Torin sighed. “I don’t want to deal with him this early in the morning.”
I thought they’d made up, but I supposed a few months of working together couldn’t erase centuries of bad blood. Grimnirs like Echo reaped for Hel and had a long history of stealing souls bound for Valhalla.
“You two need to make up. Cora is still my best friend.”
“I am your best friend,” he said firmly, hand slipping around my waist.
I gave him a look over my shoulder and teased, “I don’t know. She’s my best girlfriend, but Eirik… now he is best friend material.” My voice cracked. “You’re just a glorified Valkyrie… my boyfriend.”
Blue flames leaped in his eyes. He leaned down and whispered in my ear, “Boyfriend, lover, guinea pig for naughty fantasies, and—”
“Shut up.” Just like that, he’d deliberately distracted me from my worries about Eirik. He had an uncanny way of reading me.
“I’m not complaining, you understand,” he added. “Just want to make sure you recognize my awesomeness.”
