Title: Gemini

Author: Dylan Quinn

Hosted by: Lady Amber’s PR

Blurb:

Twin Souls. One Sacrifice.

Northwestern University senior Zoe Adams has spent her fifth incarnation on the run. Abused and abandoned by those she once trusted, Zoe turns her back on a duty her soul accepted lifetimes ago to focus on a music career in this one. Until her Gemini's untimely arrival forces Zoe to choose between a love she can't remember and a life she's always dreamed of.

Cade Adams has waited twenty-one years to reclaim his beloved soul mate, but his elation is short lived. As Zoe struggles to let go of her human life, demons from Cade and Zoe's past threaten the Gemini, and they find themselves living on borrowed time.

The Tree of Souls is empty, and only the Eternal Sacrifice can refill it. Is forgotten love worth dying for, or is five incarnations more than one soul can take? With more than just the fate of their reunion at stake, love becomes an Eternal Sacrifice Zoe and Cade may not escape.

Since sneak reading her first big girl romance at the age of eleven, Dylan's been addicted to Happily Ever Afters. Playing pretend with swoon-worthy book boyfriends and their strong leading ladies often keeps Dylan sleep deprived, though she seldom complains about dreaming in dialogue.

With juxtaposed interests, Dylan writes it all ~ Character driven romance in NA, YA and adult, from sticky sweet to taboo heat ~ Urban Fantasy to Contemporary Romance and Romantic Suspense. Nothing's off limits.

When she's not writing guilty pleasures, Dylan plays stage mom to her daydreamer offspring in the Midwest. This Music fangirl goes nowhere without her beats and playlists. She has an affinity for Moscato and chocolate-covered strawberries. Dreams of singing on the Voice with Adam and Christina, and fantasizes about getting trapped in Mystic Falls with Damon Salvatore.

Cade

While I held Zoe, every nerve woke from its slumber. My heartbeat increased and a hum of energy surged through me. Just being near her was intoxicating.

I craved to kiss her lips, but I wouldn't. Not until she sought me to.

Until her body spoke to me.

"So what can you tell me?" She asked. "What's the plan?"

"The plan is you get to know me. The way all relationships develop." I released her just enough to look into her eyes. "We spend time together, and your heart will answer the rest. And when you so choose, I’m yours—heart and soul."

Although in time, she would understand that I already was.

"What's the catch? Other than giving up my life here? I need all the information if I'm going to make a decision this important."

"There’s a reason you can’t be privy to all the secrets of this life. This must be a decision based on your soul. No logic can go into choosing love."

Her eyes narrowed, and her irritation returned.

"Well in case you've missed the past millennium, people today don't just fall in love overnight. Life's not a Disney movie."

She pulled away, and I let her go.

Zoe was right. Unions in modern times were complicated. Raz said there were many variables humans took into account when choosing a mate, and Zoe, although the same soul, had different experiences during each incarnation. I couldn’t force her to love me or to choose our life together, as much as I wanted to.

Each of her lives was a lesson for me as well—in relinquishing control. All I could do was trust in her heart and our love. Trust her soul would return to me.

"Humanity is about choice. I would never force you to love me. And I would never choose my happiness over yours, but yes. I am hoping your heart will choose me."

Her breathing slowed, and her lips parted slightly, just enough to send my heart racing.

My Gemini mark began to pulsate. To burn.

I needed to kiss her.

She needed to kiss me.

After thousands of years loving Zoe, I could read her body as if it were my own.

Searching for what Raz called her tells, I first regarded her eyes. They were always the most expressive. They danced between mine and my mouth. Her breaths became shallow. A pink flush spread across her cheeks as she inched toward me, shifting nervously between her feet.

Should I try? Part of me was unsure, but my body betrayed my wits.

I’d waited twenty-one years for this moment.

I could wait no longer.

I moved toward her, inhaling her sweet scent, and rid the space between us.

Her eyes grew wider, and her lips parted. Waiting. I could hear her heart pulsing rapidly.

Her body gave her answer.

"My greatest desire is for you to find happiness." I stepped closer, picked up a long strand of her dark locks and tucked it behind her ear. Running my fingers along her jaw, I whispered across her cheek.

"You have no memory of a life before this."

I gently grasped her chin, stroked her bottom lip with my thumb, and edged toward her.

"But I've seen our life together."

I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her closer, our lips now fractions apart.

Her eyes never left mine, and her body trembled in my arms.

"And I will always. Choose us."

Her breath breezed across my cheek as I pressed my lips to hers. Soft. Gentle. Trembling beneath mine. The tingling sensation I’d missed so much returned, running rampant throughout my body.

I pulled back, not more than a centimeter, to gauge her response.

Her eyes remained closed, lips parted. Waiting for my return.

I brushed a kiss gently, then deeper into her.

She allowed me to explore her soft lips. They parted further still, and I edged my way in, exploring her sweet mouth.

An intense force rushed through my veins, to my chest and arms. Her life force burned within every muscle. My body that longed for her was now alive from her touch.

Zoe fell into my embrace, letting go of all the tension she'd been holding. She enfolded her arms around my neck, pressed her chest against mine, and gently tugged at my hair. Her hands ran down my cheeks, then to my shoulders and waist.

She pressed her kiss deeper into mine, soft at first, then fervently, as if this was our last.

One block at a time, her wall was crumbling—the pain replaced with a longing for our love. Soon, her memories would resurface, and I would have my Chayah back. Our souls Converged as one.

Zoe broke our kiss, pulled back and gulped a breath of air. She opened her eyes, her body still quaking in my arms. A minute passed. Her gaze drifted up, and a single tear slid down her cheek.

"It's you," she whispered.

I placed my hands on her face, held her cheeks gently, and gazed into her emerald eyes.

“It's me."
