About the Book:  I’m dying, I thought. This was unexpected and not at all how I envisioned my death. I was supposed to die gardening in a flowerbed as a hundred-year-old woman, not as a seventeen-year-old trapped in a lake beneath inches of ice.

Llona Reese is used to living on the run. After a Vyken killed her parents, she knew they would eventually come for her too. She can’t take any chances. But when she starts to make friends for the first time in her life, she gets careless and lets her guard down. Big mistake.

As an Aura, Llona can manipulate light and harness its energy. But if she wants to survive, Llona will have to defy the Auran Council and learn to use her power as a weapon against the Vyken whose sole desire is to take her light. Now she’s caught in something bigger than she can understand, with a power she can’t wield, and no one she can trust, except, just maybe, a mysterious stranger.

About the Author:  I was born and raised in Idaho, a place secretly known for its supernatural creatures. When I'm not in my writing lair, I'm partying with my husband and four small children. My love for storytelling began as a child when the moon first possessed the night. For when the lights went out, my imagination painted a whole new world. And what a scary world it was… Oh, and my debut YA novel Fractured Light will be out February 2012.

Kay's Kritique:  Fractured Light was another stay up until 3 a.m. to finish.  I tried to put it down a couple of times, but thought "Oh I'll just read another chapter . . . " and then I was done and it was 3 a.m.  Rachel has written a great YA Fantasy with spunky Llona who just wants to live a "normal" teenage life, but can't because she is anything but normal.  She struggles to figure out who she really is and learn how to control the light and use it to save herself before it's too late.  Written for Young Adults but Adults will enjoy it too -- I did.
