Only One Can Survive The Reckoning
Erin Radkey has always known the day would come when she would have to personally confront the Triad leader of the power-hungry Emporium. But she never thought it would be with a snake in her head that feeds on her energy. Or that she’d be in the company of an uncertain ally who might turn on her at any moment.
The stakes are high as new intel uncovers a startling Emporium plot that will catapult the entire world into war. Erin is determined to save not only the mortals but also her friends—even if it means sacrificing herself and her newfound love for Ritter Langton.
Ritter is just as determined to save Erin and prevent what would usher in the most bloody century the world has ever known, but even he might not recognize the person she becomes.
Every day the enemy grows stronger. There will be no second chance.
Praise for The Reckoning:
I just loved the whole Saga! Well-written, completely addictive, keeps you on the edge, wanting to know what comes next! I really think the author should consider a movie or a TV series for the whole four books! For not being a SF fan, I just can say that this was AWESOME!
The fourth instalment in the Unbounded series definitely lives up to the action packed books preceding it. I love the strength of Erin's character, and the novel made for compelling reading.
The Unbounded world is a fascinating place to visit! I would recommend this series to anyone, women, men, young adults. Not overly complicated yet the author weaves an amazing tail. I can hardly wait to see what is next for the Unbounded!

I knew what he was doing, and I hated it. But he was the leader, and I couldn’t challenge his decision in front of the others. “Can I talk to you for a minute alone?” I didn’t keep the ice from my voice. Everyone else was suddenly very busy, their eyes elsewhere—except for Jeane, who stared at us with a seductive smile on her face, as if watching us somehow gave her a thrill.
“Sure.” His tone was as solid as my ice.
We went into the hall, and I started to put space between us and the room, but Ritter stopped me. “Better not to get too far from Jeane.”
I whirled on him, keeping my voice low but forceful. “That’s what this is about, isn’t it? Her and that snake in my head.”
His brow furrowed, and he shook his head slowly. “This is about protecting the most vital part of our plan. Without you, Erin, finding that plutonium is going to be a hell of a lot harder. Yes, if that thing weren’t eating away inside you, I’d want you with us, but it is there and we need to work around it. I certainly can’t be dragging Jeane around the factory, can I? And you going without her right now is a risk.”
My shoulders slumped as all the indignation left me. He was right. I hated it, but he was right. If I endangered myself before we knew where to focus my ability, I might not have enough energy to complete the mission.
His expression didn’t show pity, for which I was grateful. “Cort will fill in for you, and you babysit Jeane for him. Choke her again if you need to. That should cheer you up.”
I grinned despite myself.
He stepped closer to me, ignoring a couple that had emerged from one of the nearby rooms. “I’ll be back soon.” It was a promise that slid over my skin like his bare hand, reminding me of our future together.
“Be careful,” I said.
He answered seriously. “I always am—now.” Because there had been a time in the recent past when he’d cared for little but revenge. Now he had me, and that made the difference between a life of recklessness and what might actually be considered a future.
He went back inside the room for his rifle, and I contented myself by kicking the wall for several long seconds.

Teyla Rachel Branton grew up avidly reading science fiction and fantasy and watching Star Trek reruns with her large family. They lived on a little farm where she loved to visit the solitary cow and collect (and juggle) the eggs, usually making it back to the house with most of them intact. On that same farm she once owned thirty-three gerbils and eighteen cats, not a good mix, as it turns out.
Teyla always had her nose in a book and daydreamed about someday creating her own worlds. She is now married, mostly grown up, and has seven kids, including a two-year-old, so life at her house can be very interesting (and loud), but writing keeps her sane. She thrives on the energy and daily amusement offered by her children, the semi-ordered chaos giving her a constant source of writing material. Grabbing any snatch of free time from her hectic life, Teyla writes novels, often with a child on her lap. She warns her children that if they don’t behave, they just might find themselves in her next book!
She’s been known to wear pajamas all day when working on a deadline, and is often distracted enough to burn dinner. (Okay, pretty much 90% of the time.) A sign on her office door reads: DANGER. WRITER AT WORK. ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK. She loves writing fiction and traveling, and she hopes to write and travel a lot more. She also loves shooting guns, martial arts, and belly dancing. She has worked in the publishing business for over twenty years.
