Twenty-four hours ago, Brielle stood helpless as an intruder murdered her mother. Her struggle to stay ahead of the psychopathic stalker seeking her DNA and birthright necessitates she flee her glass and concrete jungle.
 Tiago, an immortal challenged with protecting all within his domain, faces a genius adversary who has created a genetically-specific bacteria and needs only the crystal worn by a foreigner to wreak havoc on the world.
Two strangers must learn to trust and work together in order to save the ones they love.
An exciting blend of action, adventure, and romance between a man not looking for love and a woman trying to survive.






“Brielle. My name is Brielle.” She wanted to hear him say her name in that low and husky voice while his gaze pulled all the heat from within to spread across her skin.

Like a rabbit caught in a snare, she held perfectly still, far too aware that he too was a predator, one with magical teeth.
