Ally knows nothing about the prophecy or her future as an immortal. Ally is stunned by her attraction to James. Ally's safety is threatened, so James and Adele move Ally to Scotland until the danger is past. Ally is hurt, upset, and angry with Adele and James for keeping secrets from her. She tries to cope with all of these changes and wants alittle distance to figure things out. Ally also has dreams which seem to be based in reality. When Kat is kidnapped Ally wants to go to her rescue but wants a plan of attack before setting out. Can Kat be rescued? What do Ally's dreams mean? Will Ally accept being an immortal? Will Ally forgive James and Adele? Your answers await you in Immortal Prophecy.What I found fascinating about this book is that the immortal can be killed or severely damaged. The powers these immortal have are really incredible to behold:creating fireballs, read minds, control minds, and so much more. I loved watching Ally's internal struggle from the beginning to the end of the book! She really was a breathe taking character to watch grow. She is real, believable, and has insecurities just like everyone else. I wasn't too sure about James from the beginning then I watched his devotion and care for Ally truly a mind blowing experience. Vincent is really the guy you love to hate from the get go. I really want to see where this story is going. I'll be watching out for the next installment.
