’Fated’ by Katherine McClelland

With the death of her mother, 17-year-old Camden Hall’s simple life is shattered to pieces. Moving from her beloved Pennsylvania to the small town of Dillingham, Alaska, she knows that she will have to act her age in order to fit in to her new school. However, acting normal is not an easy thing for Camden, especially when she starts to learn that she is anything but normal. Her life becomes more extraordinary when she meets the powerful rivals, Alec Maitland and Rowan McKinney. Fate, destiny, magic and power rule Alec and Rowan’s blood, but the blood between the two has always been bad. Camden’s arrival has driven their conflict from bad to worse. But as the balance between light and darkness begins to shift, they will all need to face the new threat together. In order to restore the magical realms, both men will have to rest their rivalry to capture Camden’s hardened heart.
