Two worlds divided.
Two hearts betrayed.
One secret that could destroy them both.
Gabriella is a Sylvanian soldier with the power to command shadows.
Richard is a Valortorian commander from a land where no one has powers- and where evols like hers are seen as threats.
For five years, they risked everything to be together in secret.
Until one day, he vanished.
Now, a year later, Richard is back in Sylvan with a mission he won't explain and a story he refuses to tell.
Gabriella doesn't know if she wants to kill him or kiss him- but she knows one thing: she'll never forgive him for leaving her.
What she doesn't know is that Richard was taken- imprisoned, tortured, and silenced by his own people.
He stayed away to protect her.
But the war between their worlds is growing colder.
And the truth is more dangerous than either of them can imagine.

Shadow of the Sun (Timeless #1)
COMPLETE. Gabriella's past is a mystery, but that never stopped her from achieving her goals. As a Supernatural Specialist, and far more intelligent than anyone her age, she was always ignored by her peers. Because of her isolation, she put her life and soul into her job. Being a Supernatural Specialist hasn't given her the divine intervention she always longed for, until one day a shipment arrives from Italy containing three dead bodies with an uncanny ability to regenerate. Gabriella is frightened and intrigued, but not as scared as she becomes when a dark creature attacks her. As the bodies come back to life, the plot takes an unexpected twist that you won't see coming. The supernatural world only begins to unfold before her as angels appear, her dreams start to haunt her, and the very past she has forgotten comes back with startling clarity. Romance blooms, escape plans are made, an assassin is out to kill her, and death is only around the corner. But what is more terrifying than all of this is the fact she is the Illuminator, the one who will save them all.Complete
Heart
Her name was Gabriella Quintanilla. She was a senior in high school during this time. She had the looks, all the boys, the popularity, the clothes, and even the grades. And in no way was she ignorant of any of these things--quite the opposite. She knew that she was above average in most categories of life, and had no problem reminding people repeatedly of that fact. I'm not going to lie---I didn't like her. Not at all. To be completely honest, I threatened to kill her with my bare hands. And the scary thing is, I meant it. I wanted her to die. I imagined dark fantasies of the light fading from her eyes right before my own, her pleading for me to spare her life. And in my fantasies, I wouldn't listen and I didn't care. She had tortured me for five years and I was utterly and simply sick of it all. Sick of her. My animosity towards Gabriella was no secret among my peers. Not many people liked her, so it's not like I stood alone on the concept. However I was the only one who voiced a threat. THE threat. The threat that got me on a suspect list in some cop's notepad. They want to know if I killed her. If they knew the whole story, would they blame me if I did? ©Copyright Timara M. Lewis 2013Complete
Shadows of Enemckey
Nineteen-year-old Gabriella thought her biggest battles were grief and loneliness. But after a brutal attack in the woods and a rescue she doesn't fully understand, she wakes to find herself in the hands of strangers who insist she isn't human at all-she's something far rarer. Something dangerous. The Guardians, a secret organization hidden in plain sight, claim they're protecting her. Yet their facility feels more like a prison than a refuge, with cameras in the corners, guards at every exit, and half-truths wrapped in promises of safety. Among them is Dominic, the vampire assigned to watch her. He's steady, protective, and far too good at keeping secrets. Gabriella knows she can't trust him-or the Guardians-but she also can't ignore the pull she feels toward him. Every conversation is a battle of wills, every glance a temptation she can't afford. Because somewhere inside her, a power she doesn't understand is awakening... one the Guardians are desperate to control.
