The Pendant & The Prophecy is the second book in The Forbidden Tears Series by Sam Withrow and Amelia Pinkis. The trials and tribulations of Brianna Weldon and her guardian angel, Cameron, continue as they face yet more challenges. After barely surviving a deadly attack, Brie and Cameron were shocked to get a surprise visit from Ephriam that further complicated things for them. Being summoned to the Elysium was the least of their worries. The mystery of Brie’s pendant, the powers it gave her, and Cameron’s past endeavors were all causes of worry for Brie, Cameron, and their friends. The Elysium was powerful, and Brie had no reason to believe they would let her keep the pendant. Humans weren’t supposed to know about Elysium or see angels. Was there a way out of trouble for them? Or was this the end of the road?
A perfect epic fantasy, The Pendant & The Prophecy was a delight to read. I took my time reading this novel, and I’m glad I did. The story was gripping, the characters were incredible, and the narrative was simply great. The humor, the action, and the overall feel of the story were fantastic. Authors Sam Withrow and Amelia Pinkis made sure the characters were memorable, and the pace was right. A multiple-POV narrative style brought the story to life, and the vivid imagery ensured that readers were fully invested. I loved Cameron and his hard exterior. He created a strong front, but he wasn’t afraid to share his vulnerabilities with Brie. Brie, on the other hand, was strong and reliable. The two created a great pair, and I enjoyed their interactions a lot. However, it was Ephraim whom I loved the most. He matched the characters' wit with wit and was a fierce ally. I was lost in the story and the growth of the characters. I loved it, to say the least!
