Breath of Fate

Some souls go to heaven, some go to hell. I never thought I would be the one to take them. When seventeen-year-old Laney Dawson's grandmother dies, the supernatural world she spent her life refusing... turns out to be terrifyingly real. And now it's after her. Once she's manifested as a Lightbringer, she's commanded to serve her true purpose: taking souls to heaven, and making sure they get there safely. But that makes the inexperienced high school senior a target, for an ambitious Shadowbringer who wants her soul as a trophy. Seems the afterlife is anything but simple, and there are some creatures out there willing to bargain for souls, even after we die. Good that Laney has a loyal friend at her side to protect her; but how much is she willing to risk to secure her new role? If her soul is taken, she'd become an empty human shell, pained by a void that could never be filled. And it's a fate she may have to accept, to protect those she loves. Love and death collide in this thrilling new supernatural YA fantasy, where death is only the beginning, and a hidden world decides our eternal fate. If you love Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare and Fallen by Lauren Kate this series is for you... Torn is the first book in bestselling author Angelina J. Steffort's Breath of Fate series, a young adult paranormal romance about a girl caught between the allure of darkness and light.

As Laney struggles to keep her sanity with Cas's whispers from the afterlife, she relies on her new-found friendship with Avery, the only person who misses him almost as much as she does. Little does Laney know that her knowledge about Shadowbringers isn't even the tip of the iceberg. A whole new layer of trouble is waiting for her as she makes plans to find Cas and bring him back. But there is a new Shadowbringer in town-and if you thought Cas was bad, you haven't met Luc.

Running from demons isn't exactly as Laney expected. After saving her Shadowbringer from his fate in Hell, Laney returns to a hot mess on Earth-and she's at the center of it. With Adne seeking revenge, the Hunters out for blood, and the original Shadowbringer dangling Cas's soul over both their heads, Laney soon realizes that she needs to take matters into her own hands. Thank God, there is Gladys, who still remembers how to perform a ritual needed, and Avery and Tyler, who fight their own little battle against wicked Luc. And then there's the thing with her Shadowbringer boyfriend not remembering who he truly is. Laney thought it was difficult to go to Hell and back, but she never considered the ramifications of learning the truth. Tethered is the fourth and final book in Angelina J. Steffort's young adult paranormal romance series Breath of Fate.
