RAYNE: Luminescence (Rayne Trilogy #1) by Quoleena Sbrocca

In the dawn of The Rebirth Period, a new species of humans dominates the Earth.

In their second year of life, they experience the Luminescence and awaken to a mystical ability. Except one. Her name is Rayne. In a society whose values and manners are as refined as the language they speak, her peers mock her because she has no higher ability. In the early hours of her 17th birthday, she experiences a night which will change this.

As her new reality brings adventure and peril, Rayne is desperate to learn the purpose of her power. Rejected by her Colony, she must hide the truth of what is happening to her. Though she finds friends from unexpected sources, Rayne finds herself hated and even more of an outcast when she’s involved in an accident which turns deadly. As her world unravels, everything she thought she knew about the Luminescence and society is changed, and she must uncover the truth on her own.

“There is a quick, loud smash, like metal slamming into metal. Footsteps approach us—one set. The netting digs into my shoulders from my heaving breath. I close my eyes and try to suppress my panic, knowing that while my hands are bound, I am helpless.”

In book two of the Rayne Trilogy, Rayne and her master eagle comrade find themselves trapped in a desolate land. Here she discovers what she thought she knew about the world and the Ancients is a lie.

Once desperate to leave her home, Rayne fights to return to the only life she’s ever known. Isolated from her reality, she is forced to choose between killing and surviving…

Because in this world, the weak perish, and the strong live to fight another day.
