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

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. [DRM-Free]

“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, indeed.” ~ Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews, Divine Zape (5 STARS)

“...beautifully written, expressive, and enjoyable.” ~ Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews, K.J. Simmill (5 STARS)

Product description

About the Author

AUTHOR: Like many new authors, I said for years I wanted to write a book. Life, careers, and other necessary evils seemed to always derail that goal. Then, last year, on a road trip out west, I found the spark that ignited "The Temptation of Destiny." My journey began in Hazleton, Pennsylvania. After high school, I joined the U.S. Coast Guard, spending the better part of eight years busting holes in the sky on C-130s. After the military, my career path meandered through the financial services industry, auto industry, bar industry, and construction management. I am excited to start my next adventure with a move out west, and begin work on my second book. New Mexico, The Land of Enchantment, will provide the rich Native American mythology to take readers on another roller coaster ride (as "The Temptation of Destiny" does). In my downtime, I enjoy hiking and other outdoor adventures with my wife. Hunting, fishing, and doing everything possible to stay from falling into the "status quo," fuels me. When it's time to wind down this adventure we call life, I hope to be sitting in a cabin high in the alpine forests of the Rockies, spending the days with my wife, children, family, and friends, reminiscing about the blessings this life afforded us all.

EDITOR: Lane Diamond has over 170 published books to his editing credit, including many multiple award-winners, across many genres and styles, and more to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars First time author? REALLY?!?

WOW!! I couldn't put the book down! It's about Native American beliefs, the Spirit World and two people trying to figure out their destiny. They run into a bit of trouble trying to follow it, though. The book is AMAZING. Hard to believe this is DM Earley's FIRST book. Getting ready to start The Pyres of Destiny. I can't WAIT to see what happens in book 2!
