Recommendation
The world Mia Sheridan builds is one I could picture in my mind as if it were right out my back door. She’s a mistress of description, and that comes in very handy when writing the *ahem* romance scenes between Calder and Eden. OH, MAMA, the emotion and love and connection and everything. Taking place over the span of two books — Finding Eden comes immediately after Calder — this story is not complete without a journey through both. I can’t recommend Becoming Calder highly enough, especially for those of us in love with New Adult books!
Becoming Calder is a New Adult triumph. Their young relationship is handled beautifully and sensitively by Mia Sheridan. In Acadia, Calder and Eden are very young but have to fight adult battles. As we say goodbye to Acadia, Eden and Calder’s future is up in the air. I can’t wait to start Finding Eden to finish their story.
I love New Adult Books. They’re my thing. So you can believe me when I say that this book blows all other NA books out of the water. It’s so different from anything you’ve read…and it’s one of the most beautiful love stories I’ve ever read. Go directly to Amazon and 1-Click Finding Eden. You won’t be sorry!
Publisher synopsis
There is a place in modern day America with no electricity, no plumbing, and no modern conveniences. In this place, there is no room for dreams, no space for self-expression, and no tolerance for ambition.
In this place, there is a boy with the body of a God and the heart of a warrior. He is strong and faithful and serves his family honorably. But he dares to dream of more.
In this place, there is a girl with the face of an angel and a heart full of courage. To her family, she is the vision of obedient perfection. But she dares to want that which she has been told can never be hers.
Becoming Calder is the story of good versus evil, fear versus bravery, and the truth that the light of love has always found its way into even the darkest of places… From the beginning of time, to the end of the world.
THIS IS THE FIRST PART IN A TWO-PART SIGN OF LOVE SERIES INSPIRED BY AQUARIUS. THE SECOND PART, FINDING EDEN, WILL RELEASE SIMULTANEOUSLY. New Adult Contemporary Romance: Due to strong language and graphic sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.
