Beautiful Chaos
Ethan Wate thought he was getting used to the strange, impossible events happening in Gatlin, his small Southern town. But now that Ethan and
Lena have returned home, strange and impossible have taken on new meanings. Swarms of locusts, record-breaking heat, and
devastating storms ravage Gatlin as Ethan and Lena struggle to
understand the impact of Lena's Claiming. Even Lena's family of powerful Supernaturals is affected – and their abilities begin to dangerously
misfire. As time passes, one question becomes clear: What – or who –
will need to be sacrificed to save Gatlin?
For Ethan, the chaos
is a frightening but welcome distraction. He's being haunted in his
dreams again, but this time it isn't by Lena – and whatever is haunting
him is following him out of his dreams and into his everyday life. Even
worse, Ethan is gradually losing pieces of himself – forgetting names,
phone numbers, even memories. He doesn't know why, and most days he's
too afraid to ask.
Sometimes there isn't just one answer or one
choice. Sometimes there's no going back. And this time there won't be a
happy ending.
