Convergence: The Empatheia Saga - Paperback

by Tessa Cox (Author)

-SOPHIE-

"You don't have to love the things you can do, but you do have to honor them..."

When Zach said those words to me, I fought hard against their truth. I fought against my abilities, the looming shadow of my biological father, and the destruction he wrought, vowing that I would never be like him. As usual, though, Zach understood my feelings in a way that had little to do with his supernatural ability to read emotion and more to do with our connection, and with his help, I no longer fear the power that lives inside me. We certainly have our own flaws, but together, all our jagged pieces just make sense. I am his moment of clarity amid the barrage of emotion that consumes him, and I will never jeopardize our relationship again by letting my fear control me, and if that means that it's finally time to confront my father, then I'll be ready.

My past was my past, but Zach is my future.

-ZACH-

"You are my calm in the storm..."

I never imagined that I could be someone's calm. I never pictured a future where the guy who couldn't stay out of trouble now spends every day concerned about the well-being and happiness of another, but that's my new reality, and I embrace it freely. In fact, I consider it my privilege to be the one person Sophie needs above all others when she feels overwhelmed by her past, her present, or the incredible power she possesses. I'll always challenge her to see the potential for good in that power, but I'll never let it define her. To me, she is so much more, and after nearly losing her, I never want to feel that pain again. I'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe and put an end to it all, and since I've never been one to shy away from a fight, they better be ready.

Because Sophie and I deserve our happy ending.
