Courage — Carrie Butler

Courage (Mark of Nexus #2) is a New Adult paranormal romance that features four unique points-of-view. The novel is best enjoyed after Strength (Mark of Nexus #1). ----- Making a deal with the bad guys wasn't the highlight of Rena Collins' semester, but, hey, it saved her boyfriend. Now, in order to appease the human-altering organization known as ERA, she'll crawl under their microscope while they study the Mark of Nexus and plot their eye-glazed version of the future -- until she realizes that's not all they're plotting. Wallace Blake has always known his girlfriend is unlike most girls. But now that information has surfaced regarding the two bloodlines that balance his supernatural race, he finally understands why. Rena belongs to one of them. She's been augmenting his power, all along... Enter: Corynn Catley. Brought into the country under the guise of an internship, she's intended to become ERA's secret weapon. Kind of. Her abilities cancel out Wallace's, rendering him powerless, but that's exactly what he's always wanted. Too bad it only works when his girlfriend's not around. All the while, Rena fails to notice the crush her geeky best friend, Aiden Ross, is nursing. He'd give anything for her to see him in a new light -- even reinvent himself through questionable means -- but there's a reason people are told to be careful what they wish for. Finding the courage to tell her could put everyone's lives in danger.
