Temple of the Dove — Laura Baker

Chase was born for one thing and one thing only, to protect his twin sister Sophie at any cost. Having been born the only female of her kind, Chase knows that his sister is in grave danger from those that would wish to use her or harm her, or worse. It is his duty to guard and protect her with his life. But, all Chase longs for is a normal life. When a cruel twist of fate causes the twins to lose that which is most precious to them, Chase sees his chance and makes a decision that will change both of their lives forever, giving him the freedom he desires. But actions have consequences, and now they must both live with the ramifications of that decision. But can they? Can they make up for the hurt and betrayal they have caused to those that love them? And will they ever be truly free? Will they ever truly be safe? Not if fate has anything to say about it.

This is book two of the Legacy Series and is best read after Whisper of Angels, the story of Sophie and Chase's parents. Temple of the Dove does end in a cliffhanger that will be resolved in the final installment Altar of Tears.
