''Devoted'' is the sequel to the ''New York Times'' bestselling novel ''Elixir'' by American entertainer Hilary Duff with Elise Allen. It was published and released to booksellers on October 11, 2011. It is the second in an unnamed trilogy by Duff and Allen. Since Sage was kidnapped, Clea has no way of knowing if he is alive or dead. And even though she has only just discovered they were soul mates, she feels like a part of her is lost forever. What's worse, she can't even turn to her best friend Ben because every time she looks at him, all she sees is his betrayal. But waiting for something to happen is not an option, so Clea is ready for action. Suffering through dreams of seeing Sage with another woman, she makes an uneasy alliance with Sage's enemies and sets out to be reunited with Sage...in this life or the next. ==Creation Process== After the release of ''Elixir'' in 2010, Duff stated that she intended to write more in the series. She said, however, that nothing had been put down as yet and that she and her co-writer, Allen, were simply playing around with different ideas. On October 18, 2010, Duff posted on Twitter about a sequel: "Can't believe so many people have read the book already! Yipeeee! Starting the next one in two weeks". ''Devoted'' was released on October 11, 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Devoted )〕 In an interview with MTV, Duff said that "''Devoted'' picks up basically where ''Elixir'' left off, and Clea has a lot of big questions to answer and decisions to make."〔(Hilary Duff Is 'Devoted' to New Novel ).

It will be a wrap up, kind of where they are now and what exactly happened to the Elixir, whose hands it's in, what ends up happening with Sage."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Devoted」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
