    The Temptation of Destiny

    Written by D.M. Earley

    Narrated by Scott Connolly

    About this audiobook

    Destiny is complex in the 21st century: sometimes destiny tempts us, and sometimes we tempt destiny. Either way, every choice brings consequences, as Jake and Dakota are about to discover.

    WINNER: Pinnacle Book Achievement Award - Best Literary Fiction

    “Suspenseful, intriguing and powerfully tense, this is a dark fantasy work like no other... The Temptation of Destiny is a master class in tension and supposition.” ~ Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews (1)

    Jake has the perfect life—a successful marriage, three great children, and a plan set in place for his future. Yet with one tragic twist of fate, all he has achieved is threatened.

    Dakota, a recent graduate from law school, is eager to start her life in Wind River, a magical place where legends of strong warriors and beautiful maidens, in a majestic land steeped in lore, have always captured her imagination. Yet one horrible night threatens her piece of heaven on earth.

    The Spirits dance across the night sky as the most vile, violent, and darkest of humanity's secrets invade Wind River. Prophetic visions warn of a great battle, and the dead tell tales, as the past and future collide and the struggle between the Spirit and Mortal worlds tear at the fibers of humanity.

    EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a compelling 21st-century story of light and darkness, love and despair, life and death, all set against the backdrop of Wyoming American Indian country, culture, history, and spirituality.

    “The scenes are beautifully written, the points of views clearly narrated, and the conflict is so skillfully constructed that it drives the story forward. A great read.” ~ Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews (2)

    “...beautifully written, expressive, and enjoyable.” ~ Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews (3)
