Breaking The Nexus By Lindsay Avalon

BLURB

Throughout history, myths and legends of extraordinary creatures have been told and retold. Fantastic tales of demons and banshees, gryphons and dragons, and of course, magic. Stories that every child grows to learn are nothing more than fantasy…or are they?

Beyond the world you see lies a hidden realm, the Mythrian Realm, inhabited by all of the creatures you’ve been told are mere fiction. Only one thing lies between humans and the truth: the Nexus. A magical barrier erected millennia ago to separate the two realms, it has stood the test of time. Until now.

For Mythrian Sha Phoenix, magic is nothing new. But when she stumbles upon a portal on the verge of collapse, her fate will forever change. Pulled through the portal into the Human Realm, she lands in the middle of Detective Connor Flynn’s brutal murder scene. Soon it is obvious someone is using blood magic to try to bring down the Nexus. Together, Connor and Sha must work to unravel the secrets before the barrier falls and the realms collide.

The Nexus is breaking and all hell is about to unleash…literally.



Jenn's Review

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. I can't say it enough. Breaking the Nexus is a fantastic book, I love the idea of two realms. The Mythrian Realm runs parallel to ours and its there to protect us, the humans. What happens when cracks appear in the Nexus, all HELL will break loose.

This is an amazing story of Connor, the cop and Sha from the other Realm working together to save us. I cant wait to find out who Alec is and what is happening next.

Sheri's Review

This was hands down an awesome book. I was sucked in from page 1 and it didn't let me go and definitely didn't disappoint me!

Loved the relationship between Ian and Connor and Luca and Sha. You could see the bond between the partners and it really came through how much they cared.  I loved that you could feel the connection they had, they are more then partners they are like siblings.  They look out for each other, and they have each other's back.  They will even bend the rules for each other. 

Connor is a Cop here in our realm, Sha is a warrior from the other realm.  Together they are one hell of a team. Connor and Sha together was scorching!! Loved, loved them. The tension and heat radiated off the pages and left me in love and heat with them!

When the Nexus starts failing, and Hell starts breaking out here in our realm, we see the the true connection between Connor and Sha and what they will risk for each other.

What a beautiful told story, with a plot so different then anything I have read before, it kept me coming back for more.

Can't wait to see what happens in book 2!!!

Author Bio:



I am a wife, a programmer, and now an author. I have an adorable mini Schnauzer and more books than I have room for. I love reading romance because no matter what may be happening in my life, I can always count on my books to end happily ever after. The day I met my husband was the day I truly began believing in happily ever after. After hearing me complain a few too many times that I had "nothing" to read despite the hundreds of paperbacks scattered around the house, my husband began suggesting I write my own stories. When I finally took his advice I discovered that although I enjoy my day job as a software engineer, my true calling is to be an author.

My sister drilled into me an appreciation for fantasy and mythology, something I try to bring to my books. My debut novel, "Breaking the Nexus", started as a book written for NaNoWriMo and has grown to so much more. It was the conduit that introduced me to a fantastic group of independent authors who have changed my life in unimaginable ways.

When I'm not writing, I've found a passion for blogging and interviewing fellow authors. I also love reading (of course!), baking, crochet, sewing sock monkeys, playing video games, and all sorts of random crafts. I have an incurable love of rubber duckies and stuffed animals, and I believe nobody should have to grow up if they don't want.
