Becoming
A powerful urban fantasy novel about love, betrayal, family, and discovering the strength to heal.
Nearly thirty years after magic has explosively and disastrously returned to Earth, twenty-six-year-old Rachael Knight is condemned to death. She is forced to flee the cultish conservative compound in Los Angeles where she was raised for Davis, four hundred miles north. There she must learn to navigate the outside world, while also learning about the magic she was forced to hide her entire life. Rachael discovers the joys and freedoms she has always been denied and in so doing, meets tall, dark, and handsome, Drake Archer.
When a woman is murdered, Rachael not only was one of the last people to see her alive, she was also at the site of the murder, making her a top suspect. Can she clear her name and help solve the crime before anyone else is hurt?
Becoming is both a tale of magic and joy, and one of betrayal and trauma. Join Rachael on her journey of self-discovery as you are reminded that growth is never painless.
