\"\"<\/a>UNKNOWN PAST<\/strong><\/p>\n

Something strange is happening to Nessa. Ever since she survived a near-death experience she\u2019s not exactly who she used to be\u2014and enjoying every minute of it. Then she\u2019s called upon to go to battle against darkness. If only she could remember why.<\/p>\n

UNEXPECTED LOVER<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dominic is having his own problems with memory, sanity, and hallucinations. Sent to Excelsior, the covert Hunter training facility, he senses a female presence that seems so hauntingly familiar. That\u2019s because he and Nessa share a forgotten past.<\/p>\n

UNSEEN EVIL<\/strong><\/p>\n

As Nessa and Dominic regain their memories, their strange mission against evil becomes clearer. And all the more dangerous because whether they should trust each other is the still the greatest unknown of all.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Excerpt<\/p>\n

\u201cYou’re too pretty.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAm I?\u201d he asked, a grin tugging at his lips. It was a mouth made for kissing.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was dreaming. Nessa knew she was dreaming. If she had any sense, she would lie back and just enjoy it. <\/em><\/p>\n

Well, I already did that.<\/em> And she had\u2014three, no, four times over.<\/p>\n

There was no way any red-blooded, straight woman could lie in bed with this man, dream or no dream, and not enjoy it. Not enjoy him<\/em>.<\/p>\n

His eyes were dark, rich as melted chocolate, framed by thick, curly eyelashes. His skin gleamed a soft, mellow gold. In the sun, she imagined that smooth, sleek skin would deepen to a darker gold.\u00a0 His hair was black, blacker than onyx, and thick. It had just the slightest curl to it and when she ran her hands through it, the jet strands twined her fingers.<\/p>\n

She knew that from experience\u2013she’d spent half the night with her hands buried in his hair.<\/p>\n

They hadn’t spent much time standing up, but she guessed he was about 5\u201910. He had a long, lean build and she sensed strength inside him. Massive strength, but when he touched her, he did it with gentleness. Reverence.<\/p>\n

As well a dream lover should, she supposed.<\/p>\n

He reached up and traced the line of her mouth with his fingertip. She shivered under that light touch and felt heat flicker through her. \u00a0Catching his finger in her mouth, she bit lightly.<\/p>\n

Hunger blazed in his eyes.<\/p>\n

She felt a response and leaned forward, pressing her lips to his. \u201cWell, if I had to dream you, I must say, it turned out rather well,\u201d she mused.<\/p>\n

He laughed against her mouth and asked, \u201cHow do you know I’m not the one who dreamed you up?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, believe me, I’m the one who is dreaming. There is no man out there pining for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

No man waiting. No man longing. No matter what was promised.<\/p>\n

I will come back\u2026I will find you again\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cYou’re so sad,\u201d he whispered. \u201cWhy are you so sad?\u201d<\/p>\n

Nessa forced a smile. \u201cOf course I’m not… well, I won’t be for long. That’s why you’re here, isn\u2019t it?\u201d<\/p>\n

*<\/p>\n

\u201cI will find you.\u00a0 No matter where you go.\u00a0 No matter how far.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

With a snort, Nessa looked away from the TV and focused on Mei-Lin\u2019s hair.\u00a0 The teenager grinned up at her.\u00a0 \u201cIt\u2019s romantic, Nessa.\u00a0 You can\u2019t snort like that when Daniel Day Lewis is on the screen saying a line like that<\/em>.\u201d\u00a0 With a sigh, the girl rested a hand on her heart and gazed the TV with rapt eyes.<\/p>\n

The Last of the Mohicans<\/em> was the girl\u2019s favorite movie.\u00a0 They watched it usually watched it once a month.<\/p>\n

Unless Nessa could see a way out.\u00a0 Today was Mei-Lin\u2019s seventeenth birthday, though, and she\u2019d wanted to watch the silly film before she went out with some friends.<\/p>\n

Weaving the girl\u2019s silky hair into a tight braid, Nessa glanced at the screen.\u00a0 Spectacular scenery.\u00a0 Strong, sexy men with big guns, innocent-looking girls with simpering eyes.\u00a0 Romantic bits like, I will find you<\/em>.<\/p>\n

It struck a knife in her heart.<\/p>\n

Although it had been five hundred years, she could still hear Elias\u2019 voice. <\/em><\/p>\n

I will come back\u2026I will find you again\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

Only God Himself could keep me from you, love.<\/em><\/p>\n

And God Himself had spent the last five centuries doing just that.\u00a0 Nessa couldn\u2019t watch this damn film without reliving her memories.\u00a0 A time when she torn away from her husband.<\/p>\n

Not by pissed-off Natives, but by death.<\/p>\n

By God.<\/p>\n

God had taken her lover from her, and God had kept her from joining him.<\/p>\n

She was alone, and empty. So empty inside. Not even her dream lover could ease that ache.\u00a0 At least not for long.<\/p>\n
