Shield and Splintered Oaths — J.E. Neal

Garrett Haydenshire will do anything to keep his family safe in the third book in the thrilling urban fantasy Energy of Magic series. The world of the Gifted-those who can harness the earth's energies to cast powerful magic-is in real danger. The Elite Iodex are the soldiers meant to keep the realm safe, but even the elite guardian's protective shields won't be able to stop the darkness that would eat at the Gifted Realm if power fell into Interfeci hands. Emily and Rainer race around the globe-from D.C. to Paris to Boston to Seattle-trying to hold onto their new lives together and ensure Emily's father can secure his seat as Crown Governor. Only the Interfeci has already infiltrated the election. The Haydenshires can handle the mud-slinging, but what the evil organization does next could devastate the growing family. Members of the Interfeci poison those we love. They kidnap the most vulnerable in our families. They seek to take control of the Gifted Realm, and only Garrett, Rainer, Logan, and Dan stand a chance at stopping them.
