**Description Contains Book 1 Spoilers**
Two months have passed since Ember Lyons nearly
died killing the powerful Root Demon threatening the Los Angeles Gateway.
Physically healed, images of the day still haunt her and she can no longer
access the power she once wielded. She can't talk about it with anyone at The
Institute--not even her handsome, demon-hunting boyfriend, Taren. Besides there
are bigger things to worry about: Gateways around the world are weakening,
Keepers' Marks are fading, escaped lesser demons are populating Los Angeles,
and it looks like the Root Demon wasn't alone.
When the Institute sends Ember and a team to Europe, she hopes to find answers and security on the journey, but another attempt on her life reminds her she's never really safe.
Then she's thrust together with the mysterious Alexander. Ember can't be sure if this charismatic man is her most formidable enemy or greatest ally. Either way, she needs him, because he's the only one who can bring her to... the Chasm.

From Book One:
“Did she hurt you?" Taren asked. "Your
head hit the tile pretty hard.” That explained the spinning, and the pain that
was starting to seep through the cracks of my shock.
I reached up to touch the back of my head.
“Ow! Yeah, I guess she got me pretty good. What was
that about, anyway? What's her problem with me?”
Before he could answer, one of the nurses
approached. “We'll get you checked out now, dear.”
“I was just going to get her some ice,” Taren said,
his hand on the small of my back, steering me away from the nurse.
“Don't be silly,” the nurse said. “She could have a
concussion. We need to take her to the E.R.”
While she went to confer with an orderly, I stifled
a laugh. I had been wanting to get out of there. Maybe if my
mother knew I was just as likely to lose my life inside the mental hospital as
out, she'd spring me that much sooner.
“Wait.” Taren leaned close, his breath in my ear. My
pulse went back to racing. “Do you have any…birthmarks?”
His question was so bizarre that I was heedless of
the pain and snapped my head to face him.
“What?”
His eyes were only inches away, boring into mine. He
grabbed my wrist and pushed up the sleeve of my hoodie, searching. I tried to
pull away, but his grip was too strong.
“Do you?” he asked again, checking the other arm.
“N-no,” I stammered.
Intensity didn't usually unnerve me, but at that
moment, his definitely did.
“Taren, enough!” the nurse said, hurrying back to
us. “What on earth are you doing?”
She pried his hands from my arm, causing Taren to
come back to himself.
“Nothing, sorry.” He dropped his gaze. “Sorry, I
hope you feel better.”
He turned abruptly and strode away.
About the Author:
Christina Garner began writing stories at the age of
six. Her first–about a young girl who busted up a nefarious ring of furniture
thieves–was a huge hit with her mother. At eighteen, her aspirations as an
actor had her loading up her Buick and setting off for Hollywood. Since then,
she has written and directed 10 short films, including Rewind and Reminder,
both of which received acclaim on the festival circuit. In 2006, she began
writing screenplays. A year later, she even got paid for one. In May of 2011,
her debut novel, Gateway, became an Amazon Bestseller. Chasm, Book 2 in The
Gateway Trilogy, did the same.
When she’s not writing novels, Christina spends her
time working in the movie business, traveling, watching Buffy the Vampire
Slayer reruns, and playing with her dog, Griffin.
