The Power of the Fifth Sandra Antoni

Ashlyn has spent the last two years searching for her brother, since the day he was taken from their home by strangers. Her search leads her to a small town in Mississippi, but upon her arrival, she found no evidence that her brother had been there. Frustrated and out of money, she has all but given up when armed men come crashing through her motel room door. She's surrounded by FBI agents with no idea what they want her for. After a short interrogation at the police station, that leaves her with more questions than before she was arrested, the four men who promise her their protection tell tales of portals, realms, and magic.

Ashlyn doesn't believe them, of course, but they have agreed to help her find her brother, and she cannot refuse that help, even though they claim that she is their fifth. She doesn't understand what that means, but crossing through a portal into the Dark Realm leaves her body buzzing with magic that she can't control. The four men have been called by the magic to form a unit to protect their realm, but will Ashlyn finally realize that only together will the magic be complete? A fifth has been called by the magic, but there are forces seeking to tear their unit apart. Will they be able to complete their bonds and protect the realm before it's too late?
