Renegade Blog Tour

The conclusion to the Heven and Hell series.
 
I’ve been beautiful. I’ve been ugly. I’ve died. I’ve been brought back. I’ve had abilities awakened within me. My strength has been tested. My beliefs have been tested.
Yet I stand.
What’s next when you’ve pretty much experienced it all?
The end.
Sam and I are picking up the pieces. We’re trying to come to terms with all we’ve lost. And as much as I would like to hide my head, ignore the reality I live every day, there is no forgetting.
Riley is in hellI’m still not sure of his agenda. My mother’s past haunts me. And Kimber…Kimber is being herself. Cole sneaks glances at Gemma and she returns them when she thinks I don’t see.
But I do.
When Beelzebub escapes he brings his war to places I never thought he would. Earth. Maine. Home. Now everyone and everything is at risk. This has become bigger than my circle of friends. This has become bigger than me. I have to finish this. I have to find a way to stop him, to finish this war.
I just pray we will all be left standing in the end.

Renegade Excerpt

Chapter One
Sam
It begins like usual, the slightest disturbance to my sleep, making me toss and turn until I’m in that place between rest and wakefulness—not fully coherent, but enough so I could have groggy thoughts.
There is pain, not the kind of pain that would make you squirm, just enough to make you feel uncomfortable. It kind of squirms around in my limbs, like adrenaline, but not as insistent, making my body twitch.
My eyes pop open, and I shoot up off the couch, not bothering to grab a T-shirt or the shorts that lay nearby. I won’t need them. I move silently like a cat—like a houndto the door and slide the lock over and let myself out. It’s cold out. The air doesn’t shock me back into myself. I don’t even shiver.
Then I’m racing through the yard, over the grass, and past the barn. I hear the horses in their stalls, alerted at my presence, but I ignore them and keep running. My bones come unhinged and realign. My spine stretches, begins to reshape, and my body hunches. Black, thick fur sprouts, replacing the smooth skin of my human arm and then finally the switch in my brain flips.
I am no longer human.
I am hellhound.
But I’m still me.
Only this me can give in to the frustration and sadness that seems to well up inside my human skin until I’m so full and there’s nowhere else for it to go. And so it sloshes there. It soaks in until I feel like I’ll drown.
I hate it.
That’s when the hound takes over. I can’t really deny it. It’s like a summons, a calling, a command. Usually I can tell it no, or push back, but when you’re full of sloshing emotion there’s nowhere to push it back to.
So I give in.
I run.
I lose all thought.
It’s just me, the night, and nothing else. It’s a kind of freedom I’ve never felt before.
And then I wake up.
 

My Review:

Cambria , Cambria, Cambria just when I thought The Heven and Hell Series couldn't get any better, you go and add Renegade to the mix with a finale that left me speechless.

I promise not to give any details away in this review. Strictly my thoughts =) And so here goes nothing. 

Completely not expected the ways things went down. I admit that I teared up on more than one occasion; I am a girl after all (LOL) So full of vivid details (as always) and emotion, it's kinda hard not to get swept up in this final installment. One minute I'm shaking my head no because I don't want to believe what I'm reading and the next I'm giving myself a high five and nodding in agreement over the way a scene went down.

I always believed in the saying "Go big or go home", and you, my dear Cambria, pulled out all of the stops to make a lasting impression for this fan of The Heven and Hell Series.  

My wish for you is that you continue creating beautiful stories full of amazing characters and lands so vivid that I wish to retire there one day. 

And so there is my thought only review for Renegade. I hope you enjoyed it =)
