Hitomi Beaumann isn’t supposed to live to see her 18th birthday.
Hitomi has always been just an average girl in a small town. But now she's being followed and her skin prickles every time the eyes are on her. After escaping a brutal attack thanks to a mysterious young man, she discovers he is one of the ones who have been watching her. Obsidian has jet black hair, red eyes and an attitude to match. As she finds herself drawn to Obsidian, she also realizes that he might just be as evil as he wants her to believe.
With someone trying to kill Hitomi and her birthday drawing closer, she finds herself plunged into a reality where a power struggle has been raging for years between mystical realms, humans are not the only beings and most of her life has been a lie.
Will Hitomi make it to her 18th birthday to discover secrets hidden from her? Will Obsidian be there to protect her or will he be the one to end her?



Hitomi Beaumann continues her quest to restore balance between the realms. As she continues to strengthen, Obsidian begins to weaken. The evil inside him begs to be released and he's not sure he can stop it. To make matters worse, someone starts showing an interest in Hitomi sending Obsidian into a whirlwind of self-doubt and destructive behavior.
But Hitomi can't just worry about Obsidian. The world continues to darken. Time is running out for everyone.
Will Hitomi be able to save the Heavens? Can she save Obsidian from himself? Only she can decide what is most important. But will she be able to live with the decision?



*This description contains SPOILERS from Divine Mourning (Sweet Burden Series Vol. 2).*

Darkest Reflection is a Sweet Burden Series novella intended to be read between Vol. 2 and Vol. 3.
Obsidian is dying...again. He finally understands that he was never meant to be with Hitomi. Eternal darkness is an easier decision for him than living without her. But someone else has another plan for Obsidian and it doesn't involve him no longer existing.
While being held captive, Obsidian is forced to reflect upon some of his darkest memories. Even as he is broken down, he knows that he must escape or become a pawn used against Hitomi in the war of realms.




Hitomi's memory is gone. Or is it? After seeing visions of her past, she's thrust into the Heavens where hopefully answers await. Learning to be Queen of a realm and wife to London aren't the first items on her agenda. She knows that Mattias may hold the key to reviving her memories lost. But no one seems to know anything about him...until he appears at the foot of her throne.
Obsidian has become a being of the Spiritual Realm and must do what his Queen wishes. He knows Sabra has her own plan by sending him to the Heavens. He's not prepared to see Hitomi again, especially on the arm of London. But does he dare tell her the truth and risk her hating him? Or does he suffer through the torture and try to figure out the reasons for Sabra's actions?
As secrets unfold and allies become enemies, Hitomi must discover the path she must take, not only for herself but for the good of everyone. Does that path include Mattias/Obsidian? Or must she leave him behind to face the darkness alone? For she is the only one who can bring about balance of the realms and save the Living World. She must choose between her past and her future.

Sweet Burden Reviews

So, here's the deal...
I have two Sweet Burden titles on Amazon. One is the First Edition, which would make the second one the Second Edition. I will be retiring the First Edition in a few days, but there are some great reviews on the Amazon page. I can't transfer the reviews over, so they will disappear once I retire it.

So, I decided to post the reviews here:


Great Read!
“I like to consider myself a pretty avid reader. I like all different styles of books from Life of Pi to Twilight. Sweet Burden is definitely a good read. It is certainly geared towards the teen to late teen reader, but it is well written, well thought out and doesn't include vampires :) I found as I got to the end I really wanted to know what happened, and upon finishing the book, I can't wait to read the next book. Well done Ogden! I can't wait to keep reading your work!” – Kate (Columbus, OH) 12/17/2012 (4 Stars)

I can't wait for book 2!
“I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am anxiously awaiting the second installment. The story is so unique and entertaining... Very age appropriate for young adult readers” – Anonymous 05/09/12 (5 Stars)

Simply Outstanding - 5 Stars are not enough!
“LOOKOUT TWILIGHT AND GOODBYE HARRY POTTER! THIS BOOK IS SURE TO GET YOUR BLOOD BOILING AS YOU SURFACE FROM PAGE TO PAGE ON THE EGDE OF YOUR SEAT ANTICIPATING WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT …..IT'S SIMPLY O-U-T-S-T-A-N-D-I-N-G……” – Ty3175 03/31/12 (5 Stars)

If you like Twilight, you'll love this!!!
“Fantastic book! I stayed up a few long nights just to keep reading it!
The characters are well thought out and the fantasy part of this story is very new and fresh. I recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of the Twilight series. I'm excited to see where the author takes us next!” – C. Meade “Anon Hillian” (Silent Hill, USA) 02/09/12 (5 Stars)

This Book is Movie Material
“K.L. Ogden's skill in writing this story is brilliant, beginning with the very first sentence and concluding with the last. Drama, danger, intrigue, romance, chivalry, duplicity are woven meticulously throughout the story. Ogden's descriptive and intricate details create a tale that the reader does not want to put down OR to end. While the prospective audience may be teens and young adults, the book is absolutely entertaining for all ages. Hitomi and Obsidian, their friends and foes, live an astonishing existence that keeps the reader involved and wondering what will happen next. I am looking forward to the second book in the series!” – cv 02/08/12 (5 Stars)

New book series
“With so many young adult authors getting stuck in the rut of the same old vampire stories, it is nice to actually see a fresh story about a little bit different type of characters. I hate to give spoilers because part of the brilliance of the story is the way that the reader discovers the mysteries of the main character. It is the beginning of a series that could potentially be a very epic story of good versus evil, a great read if you are a fan of the young adult genre.” – J 02/05/12 (5 Stars)


Don't worry though, Sweet Burden is still available....


It's just the Second Edition now!
