It's hard to be good when it's so much fun to be bad
After sliding the card out of
the envelope, she stared at it for so long Lexa finally said, “Well?”
Sandra glanced at her friend
before frowning again at the card. Finally she handed it to Lexa and stared at
the flowers.
Seeing you last night was as refreshing as the clean smell after a
rainstorm.
—Set
Lexi’s lip curled up. “What does
this mean?”
“I’m not sure.” Sandra spoke
tentatively. “He obviously has a thing for weather.”
“And you,” Lexa said.
“Maybe.”
Lexa rolled her eyes. “What do
you mean, maybe? He became a stalker at the party last night, and now he’s sent
you your very first flowers.”
Sandra shook her head. “There’s
something…I don’t know.”
A thought somewhere deep in her gray matter teased
her, but kept getting overridden by images of Set’s beautiful face lowering
toward hers in the dark of the hedge cave. She mentally scolded herself to
focus, but then she remembered the feel of his power pulsing from him and
making her skin thrum when he came within a few inches of her, and her
concentration scattered.
She shook her head not wanting
to relive those memories. “I don’t know. I don’t really think it’s me he
wants.”
Lexa smelled an oversized rose unfurled in full bloom
in the middle of a bouquet that somehow looked like a summer storm stuffed into
a vase—all whites and lavenders, purples and deep blues. “It sure looks like
he’s focused on you, Sand.”
SUPER BAD The unexpected conclusion to the
Super Villain Academy series.
The world is in chaos. Violence and thievery reign. And with
the supers still balanced, it’s only getting worse. Without good versus evil,
the supers care less and less. In order to restore purpose, the world needs its
super heroes and its super villains, but the one who balanced them in the first
place is missing.
Sandra’s concern over finding her brother, Jeff, isn’t her
only problem. Her pathetic excuse for super powers has left her needing a new
ankle. And though she’s still very much committed to her boyfriend, Source,
she’s growing unreasonably attracted to Set, the boy who double crossed Jeff by
stealing his girlfriend.
When Sandra is taken and held as bait by kids who want to
unbalance the super world, it becomes the inciting event that changes things
for supers everywhere and forces them to answer the question, “Hero or
villain?”
