True Storm (True Born Trilogy #3)
About True Storm:
Lucy’s
twin sister, Margot, may be safely back with her—but all is not well in
Plague-ravaged Dominion City. The Watchers have come out of hiding, spreading
chaos and death throughout the city, and suddenly Lucy finds herself under pressure
to choose her future: does it lie with her handsome new friend, Alastair; her
guardian, the enigmatic True Born leader Nolan Storm; or the man who makes her
heart trip, her savage True Born bodyguard Jared Price?
But while Lucy ponders her path, fate has other plans. Betrayal is a cruel lesson, and the Fox sisters can hardly believe who is behind the plot against them. To survive this deadly game of politics, Lucy is forced to agree to a marriage of convenience. But is the DNA of her will stronger than the forces opposing her? And can she turn the tide against the oncoming storm?
As they say in Dominion, rogue genes can never have a happy ending...

Your fate is in your blood…
Welcome to Dominion City.
After the great Plague descended, the world population was decimated…and their genetics damaged beyond repair.
The Lasters wait hopelessly for their genes to self-destruct. The Splicers pay for expensive treatments that might prolong their life. The plague-resistant True Borns are as mysterious as they are feared…
And then there’s Lucy Fox and her identical twin sister, Margot. After endless tests, no one wants to reveal what they are.
When Margot disappears, a desperate Lucy has no choice but to put her faith in the True Borns, led by the charismatic leader, Nolan Storm, and the beautiful but deadly Jared, who tempts her as much as he infuriates her. As Lucy and the True Borns set out to rescue her sister, they stumble upon a vast conspiracy stretching from Dominion’s street preachers to shady Russian tycoons. But why target the Fox sisters?

About True North:
Abandoned
by her family in Plague-ridden Dominion City, eighteen-year-old Lucy Fox has no
choice but to rely upon the kindness of the True Borns, a renegade group of
genetically enhanced humans, to save her twin sister, Margot. But Nolan Storm,
their mysterious leader, has his own agenda. When Storm backtracks on his
promise to rescue Margot, Lucy takes her fate into her own hands and sets off
for Russia with her True Born bodyguard and maybe-something-more, the lethal
yet beautiful Jared Price. In Russia, there's been whispered rumors of Plague
Cure.
While Lucy fights her magnetic attraction to Jared, anxious that his loyalty to Storm will hurt her chances of finding her sister, they quickly discover that not all is as it appears…and discovering the secrets contained in the Fox sisters' blood before they wind up dead is just the beginning.
As they say in Dominion, sometimes it’s not you…it’s your DNA.

About L.E. Sterling:
Excerpt from True Storm:
:
Another laugh, this one not at all pleasant. “God, Lu, do you think I’m
actually in control here? You,” he says, his lips coming so close to mine I can
almost feel them on my flesh. He brushes them lightly, and the already swollen
flesh lights up again. “You,” he says again, his voice dropping into a purr as
with one hand, he strokes my hair, “you’re like a drug. I can’t get enough of
you, can’t break away no matter how hard I try.”
I push at his chest and force him to let me down. “You make it sound
terrible,” I grumble.
His voice and eyes are ragged, wild, as he tells me with conviction, “It is
terrible.”
“Jared,” I warn.
Blond curls fall over his handsome face as he takes my cheeks lightly in
his hands. I reach up and curl my own fingers over his, remembering what those
hands can do. How could such brilliant, clever hands be capable of such
violence? Like his hands, this man has the ability to make me feel as though
I’m flying through the air one minute, bruised and sinking the next.
I try to look away, sick of the hurt, but he won’t let me. Staring intently
into my eyes, he whispers my name like a prayer. “Don’t you get it? It’s
ripping my guts out because I have never felt this way before. I need to be
near you like I need oxygen. And I know full well I can’t have you.”
