Obsidian Tiger: the Beginning

A time of innocence, if ever there was one, is about to end and there is no way anyone will be prepared for what comes next.

Life is filled with apprehension for Josephine Rex. The older she gets the closer she comes to discovering the truth of who she is and what she is meant to become. Together with her twin sister, Josie increasingly feels trapped by forces beyond her control. The rising sophomore knows she is meant for a life of privilege, yet she struggles with the impossible expectations of being the eldest daughter of the King and a witch.

Being the daughter of the king has its rewards. Being the daughter of the Black Weretigers ancient and most hated enemies complicates things. Josie didn't choose her parents but now she is locked in a silent war that has raged for generations. How can she come to grips with what she is and lead her people when the time comes?

Josie sets out to calm her mind and reconcile with the implications of two major factions warring for her attention. The way will not be easy, for she is barely 15 and already the weight of the world is falling on her shoulders. Things take a bad turn when her father informs her that he has taken the liberty of finding her a mate. Making matters worse, Josie learns that binding or stripping her latent powers can potentially drive her mad or kill her. It takes ever ounce of mental fortitude and courage for her not to run and escape her destiny.

Filled with love, betrayal, and the perpetual agony of trying to find her way through life before she is ready, Obsidian Tiger is a must read.
