There are times when you pick up a book having no idea what to expect. For me, one of those books was Soulmated by Shalia Patel. This book, while set in America, deal with two outside cultures–Irish and Indian. Involving two main characters that stretch American YA readers is one thing, but it also employed some fantasy world tactics that give the story enough of a twist to be very compelling. I loved reading about an Indian girl being a love interest…we definitely need more of that in our classrooms.Today is the cover release for the next book in the series. This series is under the radar, but totally worth a read and it is the type of book that teens are drawn to. Here is a bit of a synopsis of Fighting Fate:Empath Liam Whelan is determined to protect Laxshmi “Lucky”; Kapadia, the girl he loves, at allcosts– even if it means breaking her heart to keep her alive. Stopping the joining cold means Liam’s life is in danger from the Soul Seekers and the ruthless Minister Gagliardi who now has designs on Lucky. Liam has no choice but to find the strength to fight his desires, fight the joining, and fight fate.After the unthinkable happened, Lucky’s “hallucinations” have been working double-time.Heartbroken and plagued by doubts, she meets a man who gives her a mind-blowing explanation for her predicament. Her apparent savior provides her with an escape from her hell: run away with him or return to her drab existence and watch Liam move on with her heart in his hands. All Lucky ever craved was to be in control of her own fate, but when her only choices fight against her heart, can she find the strength to battle for what she wants?Here is a link to enter to win an ARC of the book!: ENTER HEREShaila’s question to you is: Would you risk death to join (I mean metaphysically, of course!) with your soul mate? -- source link
