Heart, hand, and sword - that's what I promised Jules. I was nineteen years old. What did I know?
Sure, I'd noticed Jules was slightly unusual. Like she always knew where I was and how I felt. Yeah, it was odd, but it was also kind of romantic. One day, I'd even caught her fighting telepathically with Nick, her trainer. Not that I was surprised, because she was different from other girls - and who wouldn't find something to fight about with that guy? Frankly, the only one who needed training was him, starting with manners and ending with butting out. But Jules made it clear they were a package deal and that was that.
Then a creature from Nick's past attacks Jules. She won't rouse from sleep, her coma a reaction to a magic spell. It gets worse. She pulls me into her dreams - old memories that reveal her secrets. I fear Jules might be alone in them forever unless we find a way to remove the magic dagger wrapped around her wrist.
There's only one thing I can do.
Get in the car with Nick and pray we get help in time...

BORN IN SEATTLE LONG BEFORE Seattle was cool, Indie Author Amy Tupper moved with her parents to Paris, France for three years in the mid ’80s, where she attended the American School of Paris. While there, she had many adventures, like the time she became separated from her friends after a Bryan Adams concert and spent a couple of interesting hours hanging out with a hooker while her father came to pick her up.
HAVING SURVIVED FRANCE mostly unscathed and highly impressed, Amy returned to the U.S. to complete her studies at an enormous high school in Northern Virginia. It was there, hiding in Creative Writing class, that she wrote her first book. With that done, Amy attended and graduated from Randolph-Macon Woman’s College with a degree in Communications.
AMY NOW LIVES IN MORRISVILLE, NC working as a mid-career telecommunications professional with her husband, a nice man who asks for dinner, and two tween daughters who over accessorize. When not throwing a meal together last minute, writing, or knitting while watching TV, Amy attends as many alternative rock concerts as her babysitters will allow.
