Publisher Description
Jaxon Castille: jaguar shifter, warrior, assassin. He has long hungered for the chance to make his former lover, Libby Jamieson, pay for her deadly betrayal. After three long years he’s finally found her. The hunt is over…
But the Libby that he finds is not what he expected. She has no memory of their tumultuous affair; of her treachery; of anything beyond her own name. A shadowy and deadly clan has marked them both for death, and in an instant the game changes: the hunter has become the hunted.
On the run, with the ghosts of their past between them and a dark, desperate hunger quickly reclaiming their bodies and souls, Libby and Jaxon must discover the truth behind the dark forces working against them. Together, they must grab hold of a destiny that has the power to either heal them or destroy them.
But the truth is far more shattering than anyone could imagine…
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this grim, sexy debut paranormal, shape-shifter Jaxon Castille plots to punish his former lover, Libby, for betraying their antiterrorist mission and causing his friend's death. But once he finds Libby, long-buried feelings prevent him from pulling the trigger, and when he learns that she has no memory of him at all and that his clan's enemies, the DaCostas, are plotting against them both, he's glad he held back. Though their passion is soon sizzling again, it takes Libby and Jaxon a long time to overcome their mutual bitterness and distrust, and combine their efforts to uncover and foil the DaCostas' plan. Stone keeps things moving quickly, but flat characters, gaping plot holes, and purple prose ( There was a river of hatred, mistrust, and pain between them ) will turn many readers off.
