Book Description:
From the author of the New York Times,
USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling novel, THE EDGE OF NEVER, comes
a story of passion and survival…
---
Sarai was only
fourteen when her mother uprooted her to live in Mexico with a notorious drug
lord. Over time she forgot what it was like to live a normal life, but she
never let go of her hope to escape the compound where she has been held for the
past nine years.
Victor is a
cold-blooded assassin who, like Sarai, has known only death and violence since
he was a young boy. When Victor arrives at the compound to collect details and
payment for a hit, Sarai sees him as her only opportunity for escape. But
things don’t go as planned and instead of finding transport back to Tucson, she
finds herself free from one dangerous man and caught in the clutches of
another.
While on the run,
Victor strays from his primal nature as he succumbs to his conscience and
resolves to help Sarai. As they grow closer, he finds himself willing to risk
everything to keep her alive; even his relationship with his devoted brother
and liaison, Niklas, who now like everyone else wants Sarai dead.
As Victor and Sarai
slowly build a trust, the differences between them seem to lessen, and an
unlikely attraction intensifies. But Victor’s brutal skills and experience may
not be enough in the end to save her, as the power she unknowingly holds over
him may ultimately be what gets her killed.
This is their story…

Excerpt:
I raise
the gun a little higher, settling the barrel at the back of her head, but not
touching it. I don’t want her to be afraid before she dies and although I know
she fears nothing, death is something we all fear in our final moment even if
only the smallest part of us is conscious of it. I don’t want her to fear it at
all and she can’t if she doesn’t know that it’s happening.
“How old
were you when you became what you are?” she asks.
Caught
off guard by the question and maybe more-so by the shifting of the mood, I
hesitate before answering.
“I was
nine.”
She
sniffles and wipes her eyes with the hand near her cheek.
“You were
very young,” she goes on. “I guess in a way like me, you never had a chance to
live a life of your choosing. I guess maybe we aren’t really so different from
each other.” She pauses. “Except I might be more like your brother than I care
to admit. He’s as angry as I am.”
I release
my finger from the trigger and slowly, so she doesn’t know, move the barrel
away from the back of her head.
“It
must’ve been hard growing up with Niklas,” she says.
I set the
gun back on the bed next to me and before I know what I’m doing I’m cradling
the back of her head in my hand again.
