About this ebook

Cyan, after years of planning, finally makes her unannounced visit to Terk and his team. Not specifying her arrival date and time leaves her to face unexpected barriers. Locks and unfamiliar woods stand in her way, and she curses her lack of foresight. As she navigates the dense forest, she encounters Steele, the man who helped her save several lives eight years ago. Shocked and intrigued, she struggles to maintain her distance, her heart racing with unresolved emotions.

Steele, disoriented and lost, wanders through the woods, trapped in a surreal dreamscape. His memory is a blur, and he senses an unseen threat closing in. Confusion and fear grip him as he battles an invisible enemy, unaware of Cyan’s presence and the connection that binds them.

When Steele is ambushed, Cyan comes to his rescue. Now, both are targets, desperate to reach the safety of Terk’s place—a goal that proves far more elusive than they imagined.

Terk is back with a new series that is complex and at times a little hard to understand what’s going on. Steele and Cyan are being called to the Beacon. A fortress compound but along the way some seriously crazy stuff is happening. “I don’t know what to tell you, but something’s …” He shrugged. “Something’s off.” “Yeah, it’s not just off,” Rick noted, “it’s bizarre.” A great start to a new series that looks to be a winner.

A new series from the pen (or computer) of Dale Mayer. Terk has developed a new layer of protection for his family in the castle. In the meantime, Steele and Cyan are called (by energy) to meet with Terk. Their journey was interrupted and challenging. A page turning at its best. I am looking forward to more of the series and the development of The Beacon. Bravo!!. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is the first book in a new series and I have to admit that I have never read anything quite like it, but I do look forward to seeing how the stories unfold. Terk, along with all his operatives, operatives each with their own psychic power, has set up his base at a remote castle in the Scottish Highlands. Ever conscious of security and the need to welcome healers and otherers with their unique psychic skills, Terk has erected a beacon, a beacon that transmits a message to like minded people

About the author

Hey there. I’m a Canadian USA Today best-selling author, and I love writing for everyone—whether you’re young, old, or somewhere in between. My books? Well, they’re a mixed bag. Some are steamy, some are sweet, and a few might have you sleeping with the lights on. Others are perfect for snuggling up with.

I’ve never been one to color inside the lines or stick to a single path. I embrace the wild stories that pop into my head, even if they break the rules and dance across genres. A few years ago, I switched to dictating my stories because my fingers were starting to feel the impact of my steady 10,000 words a day. Dictating is linear, so it silences my internal editor. You can’t stop to ensure something is perfect or to see what needs changing—you must continue onward. This approach has allowed me to let my muse take the lead and to feel the story pour from my heart. My mind steps in during the editing process, but, until then, it’s all about letting the characters direct the story. That’s why my stories have that existential feel of a Dale Mayer book.

And you know what? That’s totally okay with me.

One thing’s for sure: every book I write promises to be a great read, every single time.
