Teaser 1
Mason let out a soft chuckle. “Did you just call me Mace? It sounds hot coming out of your mouth. I’ll seal the deal with my love shock.” Positioning his thumb near mine, small illuminating sparks flew out from it. They looked like small, glowing branches, yet moved like long spider legs. Slowly, he moved it closer. It sizzled and crackled first, then it wrapped around my thumb. It was the coolest sight. Where our thumbs were touching glowed. The longer the light touched me, the warmer it got in that area. Then it continued to weave from my hand down to my arm, making my arm shimmer.
Watching in awe, I gave him the biggest smile I could. Suddenly, my body jerked and I dropped my hand. “Ouch.”
Mason captured it and rubbed the area. “Shit! I’m so sorry. Sometimes I can’t control it around you.”
I formed my lips into a wicked, sexy grin. “Sometimes, I don’t want you to.”
Teaser 2
“Everett, stand behind us,” I ordered. I didn’t mean to sound forceful and demanding, but his life was at stake. The vultures could seriously hurt him with their bolts. As Nick and I fought back with our lights standing side by side, Everett managed to stay behind us.
I could tell from the way they maneuvered and worked as a team that this group of vultures was smarter. Not only that, their lights moved like whips. Whack! Whack! Shit! One lashed across my shirt and burnt through it. Then I wondered if I could move my light like them. Before I could try, the five vultures joined their bolts into one, and it was coming straight for us.
“Shit!” Nick yelled, combining his light with mine. “Theirs is so much bigger and brighter. Can we take them?” Our light hit theirs, creating a massive spark of light, blinding our visions. The impact caused individual lights to shoot out.
“Hell, yes.”
Feeling like more distance was between Sky and me, I became desperate. I didn’t care if I burnt down this forest. I was going to get to Sky…now. What I was about to do next would drain me, but it was the only thing I could think of.
Teaser 3
“Would you please stop pacing?” Amanda asked me. Her tone clearly indicated she was annoyed.
I couldn’t help my nervousness. We were meeting up with my dad again. The Grand brothers were waiting outside for his arrival while Amanda and I were waiting inside one of the private rooms in Mason’s restaurant. Not wanting to aggravate Amanda, I stopped. “Sorry, it’s just a bad habit.”
“I don’t think that’s your only habit.”
I crossed my arms. I’d had enough. I wasn’t going to take any crap from Amanda. “Excuse me?”
“Look at your hands.”
I did, and what I saw was unbelievable. Sparks were flickering faintly. I was astounded, glancing from one finger to the next. “I don’t understand why it’s doing this.”
Amanda kept her distance but stood in front of me. After pulling out a chair for me, she tapped the seat. “Sit. Take deep breaths. You need to calm down. Since this is all new for you, you’re unable to control it. Just relax, make a fist, and think happy thoughts.”
When I did what Amanda suggested, I could feel myself calming down. The lights from my fingers became less apparent…until the door swung open. I jumped out of the seat. I could feel the energy within me intensifying. Embarrassed because the electricity was out of control, I stuck both of my hands in my pockets. Crap! My front pockets were glowing, so I quickly placed them behind my back instead. I was surprised to see….

LOVE LOVE LOVE these books! I thought I loved Mary Ting’s From Gods. You will see my review for that book below as well. From Gods left us with with a crazy cliffhanger, I was so glad that I had From Deities on hand so I didn’t have to wait to read what happens. Love the characters. These books are amazing. I Love Greek Mythology and love to read stories with different takes on the old myths. The possibilities really are endless. Mary Ting does an amazing job. I was captivated right until the very end of this book. Well Done!

From Gods (bk 1) Descendant Prophecies
Blurb
Did you just see a flash of lightning across the sky on a clear sunny day? It’s not from Mother Nature. It is most likely from Mason Grand, swoon-worthy demigod, one of Zeus’s descendants.
Skylar Rome is supposed to be having the best summer ever before she heads off to college. Little did she know, her whole life was about to change while visiting her cousin. Nearly drowning at the beach due to unknown forces, one of the Grand brothers she’d just met, Mason, saves her life. Cool, collected, mysterious, and dangerously good-looking, Skylar is drawn to him from the start. Though she knows he is the type of guy good girls stayed away from, it seems he is always saving her life, and the attraction was inevitable.
Upon meeting the brothers, strange things begin to happen. When she accidentally kills one of the brothers, it throws her life into turmoil, as they search to find the answers. Implausibly, she gets caught up in a world of the descendants of ancient gods, all who have super powers. Not only is her discovery difficult to accept, evil beings are after her. Running out of time and running for her life, she must unravel a mystery. What do they want from her? Forced into a battle set into motion long before she was born, will she find the answers, or will she die trying?

From Gods was AMAZING! This book hooked me right away and I devoured it in one sitting. Mary Ting did an excellent job keeping me captivated right until the end.
Skylar spends every summer with her cousin, Kayla. It’s the summer before going to college and she expects to have an epic summer. Right from the start weird things begin to happen. Skylar soon realizes that her epic summer may end up being anything but. She meets Mason and his brothers who seem a little too good looking. Not to mention they are rich but too young to really have that much money. Even though, she is still mesmerized by Mason.
Pretty soon she’s thrown into a world that she never believed could exist and her life is in danger. She must find out why all these strange things keep happening before it’s too late. Mason seems to know a little too much about what is happening.
I love Greek Mythology and the different versions authors can come up with. Mary Ting doesn’t disappoint. I can’t wait to read her next installment in this series. Super job!
