Undying Light by Aurora Wildey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Kaela Morrow is a young woman with a bit of an overprotective father, but she is determined to live her life on her own terms by living alone, spending time with her best friend and studying, all while working part time, but all that changes one night when Kaela is attacked, but thankfully for her, there is someone nearby who comes to her rescue. Terran Montgomery is just finishing work when he hears a scream, he has no idea what he is about to run into, but he cannot just stand by and let something bad happen to someone, so he takes matters into his own hands and rescues Kaela, however, he does not escaped unharmed and Kaela is worried that her saviour might be in danger of losing his life, so despite knowing that she shouldn’t, she uses her inner light to heal him.

The next morning, Terran and Kaela realise that they both have something to hide and that the other is now in full knowledge of both of their situations, so albeit scared and uncomfortable they decide to keep the secrets they have discovered close to their chests and hope that their paths do not cross again, but if she needs him, he will do everything he can to keep her safe. While Kaela tries to come to terms with everything that happens, she has to again call on Terran for help, however, while this is going on, they cross paths with Seth Lazarus, a man who has seen a lot and been alive for a long time, he is an immortal and one of the few of his kind left, however, as soon as he senses Kaela, he realises that she is another of his kind, but that she is a new born and that is a rare thing which needs to be celebrated. He introduces himself to her and makes her acquaintance, but it soon becomes clear that she has no knowledge of her special status, so he decides to keep an eye on her, especially when he hears what has happened to her recently, but he is in no position as of yet to do this.

As time passes, Kaela is hoping that all the drama is blowing over, but when she is attacked again, Seth decides it is his time to step in and offer her a safe haven, with a job and place to lay low included, Kaela again reluctantly agrees, but still wants to maintain contact with Terran, this is not what either Seth or Terran would prefer, but they agree it is probably the best path to take. Will Terran and Seth be able to keep Kaela safe when trust is not something which comes to any of them easily, or will the danger which surrounds them be too much to overcome? This is a tale of a girl caught between too protectors with a paranormal twist, where secrets weave themselves into a tangled web which leads you through the story all the way until the end until you know whether Kaela is safe and whom her choice is.
