Not only have I been threatening him with bodily injuries patiently anticipating the sequel to Exiled, but the cover as well....for obvious reasons ;-)

Here's a little bit about what to expect in Shift

**CONTAINS SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT READ EXILED**

Devastated by the loss of his mother, Chase is trying to balance the life he’s been left with, a family he’s still getting to know, and power he never thought he’d have. He doesn’t understand why the Goddess has named him the Protector and granted him two gifts: the Mark, a tattoo that now covers his back, and the ring. But between getting interrogated by the Circle and psychic attacks from Riley, the Mark is the least of his concern. There’s a demon inside Rayna that’s fighting to be released, and it’s not her inner witch. It’s something else–a monster threatening to tear her apart.

As Chase struggles to control his magic, his enemies are closing in. Everyone has staked a claim on his ring, and destroying it may be his only chance to stop Riley. But Chase must decide if stopping him is worth risking the lives of everyone he cares about, or if protecting the ring will be enough to save his world.

Isn't this cover GORGEOUS! Seriously, when I got this in my e-mail at work I started SQUEE-ING....which in turn made everyone else in orientation look at me funny, but it was SO worth it!
