Visions of
death haunt her . . .
Ava Keller

reality. But when she meets a strong, broken man, he makes her want to believe
in second chances.
Vengeance
consumes him . . .
Tortured by

Thrown
together by fate, Ava and Karson explore their new feelings and discover hope
for the future. But they must battle the demons threatening humanity to find a
destiny worthy of their love.
Excerpt:
“Is this some kind of setup?
Because I don’t appreciate you screwing around on my job.” Karson shot a quick
glance over his shoulder before turning back to look at me. He stepped forward,
towering over me with his large frame.
His scent touched my nose,
spicy and masculine. But he was too close. I stepped back.
Something in his expression
shifted. Softened, but only a tad. “Tell me what the fuck is going on, and cut
the scared rabbit look. You know I’m not going to hurt you.”
I knew no such thing.
“I don’t know what you’re
talking about—”
“The trancing out and muttering
about burning. Ring any bells? Are you trying to get me killed?” Eyes locked on
mine, he took another step toward me, crowding me.
At least now he was talking
about something I knew about. But the whole Venator thing? Screwing around on
his job? Trying to get him killed? Very slowly, I repeated myself. “I don’t
know what you’re talking about.”
He cursed under his breath.
“You’re lying.”
I didn’t answer, but I didn’t
look down, either. And I didn’t step back again. Miriam would have been proud.
Or petrified for me.
He stepped back this time, and
his lips curved into a slight grin. “You’re a tough one.”
“Damn straight,” I managed.
His grin widened into an
all-out smile, and the world around us brightened.
My breath hitched, but not from
fear this time. Just the small change in his expression made him more man than
monster.
“Just—just tell your friend to
watch out for himself,” I said. A wimpy-ass warning, but did I really know
anything else that would be helpful? What could I say? Tell your buddy that if
he knows anyone who likes to burn people alive, that he shouldn’t trust the
pyro? Yeah, that would totally be helpful. “And to stay away from neon signs.”
I expected him to roll his eyes
or laugh at my warning; it was such a weird thing to say. But his gaze rolled
over me in a very obvious appraisal, and when he finally got back to my eyes, I
gave him my best glare. After years of pushing people away from me, I’d gotten
good at the whole steer-clear glare.
“Keep your secrets, girl. But
stay away from my job.” With a final lingering glance at me, he turned and
headed the direction Thomas had taken.
He moved quickly, but with
purpose, like some sort of jungle cat on the hunt. The man didn’t walk. He stalked.
Thank God he’d gone the
bullying route. With a smile like that and enough testosterone to kill a horse,
he could have charmed the truth out of me.
