Arcana Rising

In the second book of the Arcana Chronicles Evie has now fully come into her powers as the tarot Empress. And Jackson was there to see it all. In the aftermath of killing Arthur, the tarot Alchemist, Evie realizes that a war is brewing between the other teens that, following the apocalypse, have been given powers and its kill or be killed. Things get even more complicated when Evie meets Death, the mysterious, sexy Endless Knight. Somehow the Empress and Death share a romantic history - one that Evie can't remember, but Death can't forget. She is drawn to the Endless Knight, but is in love with Jack. Determined to discover why she's been granted these powers, Evie struggles to accept her place in a prophecy that will either save the world, or completely destroy it.

In the aftermath of a cataclysmic event, sixteen-year-old Evie, from a well-to-do Louisiana family, learns that her terrible visions are actually prophecies and that there are others like herself--embodiments of Tarot cards destined to engage in an epic battle.

I spent my whole life believing magick was a curse—and believing I didn’t have enough of it to worry about, anyway. Turns out I was wrong on both counts. I’m so much more than a magick-blessed Academy student. I’m an Arcana Witch bound to a sacred order whose duty is to protect magick—and one another—at all costs. Thankfully, I’m not alone. My Arcana magick brought four fiercely loyal, impossibly sexy Arcana mages into my life. But it also brought trouble. Corrupt Academy officials. Mysterious attacks on students. And the terrifying Dark Arcana—five insanely powerful ancient beings desperate to reclaim the magick they believe is their birthright… and destroy the rest of us. Our best shot at defeating them is to track down the hidden Arcana artifacts that bind and balance all magick. But to do that, we’ll have to embark on a dangerous otherworldly journey—one that will change us in ways even the Tarot can’t predict.

Forced to leave the comfort of Death's world to save Jack from The Lovers, Evie meets her allies on a frozen wasteland to launch an attack that requires Jack and Death to work together. By the best-selling author of the Immortals After Dark series.
