Dark One: Book One of The Khiara Banning Series
When Khiara Banning was born, her untainted soul was chosen to be the bringer of the final battle between good and evil, but due to her parent’s foolishness she was cursed - cursed to be truly alone. No Guardian, and no Soul Mate. Cael, a fallen angel, heard about this and when he saw her, he felt that he needed to protect her.
Cael begged to be her guardian and because God is fair, it was allowed, but if any mistakes were to be made, Cael would no longer hold his title.
Years later, the curse takes a terrifying new turn that not even God could have predicted. The only person who knows how to fix it is the very person who cursed her in the first place- the Goddess, Morrigan, and she alone knows something that will change Khiara’s fate forever. Can the perseverance and power of Cael be great enough to overcome the poisonous evils in the final battle? Will Khiara be able to endure the onslaught?
Her survival is crucial, as the world depends on it.
