The Fire Keeper (Storm Runner Series, Book #2)

The Fire Keeper (Storm Runner Series, Book #2) by J.C. Cervantes

Zane Obispo's new life on a beautiful secluded tropical island, complete with his family and closest friends, should be perfect. But he can't control his newfound fire skills (inherited from his father, the Maya god Hurakan, who's now in prison); there's a painful rift between him and his dog ever since she became a hellhound; and he doesn't know what to do with his feelings for his shape-shifter friend, Brooks.

But Zane has to put all that aside to carry out his plan to rescue Hurakan, a plan that is thwarted when he discovers that his island sanctuary is actually a prison he can't escape. To make matters worse, he learns that by writing the book about his misadventures with the Maya gods, he unintentionally put other godborns at risk. Unless he can find them before the gods do, they will be hunted down and killed. In a race against time, Zane must make the impossible choice to save the godborns or his father, who is in greater danger than he thought. Zane knows he must save them all, no matter the cost. Can he accomplish both seemingly impossible tasks without the gods detecting him, or will he end up a permanent resident of the underworld?

In this cleverly plotted sequel to The Storm Runner, the gang is back together again with spirited new characters, Aztec gods, Maya royalty, unlikely alliances, surprising twists, and secrets darker than Zane could ever have imagined. Secrets that will change him forever.
