Heart of Radiance | Eternal Bonds: Book 3

Author's Note

Okay, so few things before we get started.

Firstly, welcome to Heart of Radiance, the sequel to Soul of Shadows. If you have not read Blood of Darkness or Soul of Shadows, please go and read those books first and come back to this one, since things will make a lot more sense. They should be read in the following order:

Blood of Darkness
Soul of Shadows
Heart of Radiance

Also even though the summary blurb focuses on Starlene Drake and Gabriel Drake, I'll be switching to the other characters occasionally as well in order to explore different sides of the story.

Secondly, just like Blood of Darkness and Soul of Shadows, this story does contain some Romanian words, and for the most part they are translated within the story itself, but just in case:

Frate - brother

Soră - sister

Surioară - little sister

Mamă - mother

Tată - father

Iubirea mea - my love

cumnată - sister in law

This list may grow as the story goes on.

To any readers out there who happen to speak Romanian and find my translations are wrong, please feel free to direct message me and let me know.

Thirdly, a warning that there may be some scenes containing blood and graphic imagery. If that's the case, I'll give you guys a heads up at the beginning of the chapter and just before it starts, so that you can skip it if you want to.

Fourth, just like Blood of Darkness and Soul of Shadows, this story does derive inspiration from Hades and Persephone, so be on the look out for mythical references.

Lastly, please remember to comment and vote. Any comments and votes are appreciated.
