I will be your heart, if you will be my shield. In a world where magic supposedly didn't exist, Serena has spent years struggling to conceal her unpredictable singing magic. While wishing for a peaceful life where she can sing without fear, she sees a man in handcuffs being forced into a shady research center. Their eyes meet, and the soulbond is forged. Darien is not from this world, and he's been held captive for years. With the soulbond amplifying his strength, he can fight his way through almost everything, but not every danger can be fought with fists. Their love draws them together even as power-hungry enemies try to pry them apart. They want to control Darien for their own purposes, but he's too strong to be controlled by force. Their love is their greatest strength-and their biggest vulnerability. But magic has its own rules, and no song can go unanswered. Excerpt: I pitied the man, although with so many cops around him, he was quite dangerous. Who needed 30 police officers to supervise one guy who in handcuffs and leg shackles? I watched him walk down the gauntlet between the rows of officers. It was as if I couldn't look away. He paused and looked around. His brilliant glowing blue eyes seemed to meet mine across the vast distance. I couldn't even blink as his eyes seemed to hold mine. The trees of a park broke our locked gaze as the bus kept on driving. I took a deep breath, suddenly realizing that I had stopped breathing the moment our eyes met. I had never seen such blue eyes before-and they glowed! A shiver ran through me. I had been too far away to make out the color of the man's eyes. My eyes watched the trees, hoping for a break in them so I could see the man again. I had no such luck. --- Fade-to-black action fantasy romance Copyright November 2017.

Jaelyn James seems to have everything a nineteen year old girl could wish for. Jaelyn has her own apartment; which means no adults are going to be constantly reprimanding her. But her parents decide that it would be best if she has a roommate. Naturally, her parents have to pick her roommate out. To make things worse, her new roommate just so happens to be Jesse Stevens. Jesse Stevens looks like a grey-eyed, angelic Hollister model. But sadly, he's just obsessed with boxing, tattoos and staying in shape. After a few days of getting to know each other, Jesse explains to Jaelyn that since she works at a gym she should learn how to box. Jaelyn reluctantly agrees because she could teach boxing lessons and it would get her more money. Plus, there was just something about boxing that intrigued her. Soon after Jaelyn learns how to fight, she gets into a small brawl with someone from Powerhouse Fitness. That someone was the female boxing champion at the gym. This puts her plans of teaching lessons to a hault. Mae Jones, the cocky champion, demands that Jaelyn fights her in the upcoming tournament. Even though Jae still knows barely anything about boxing, she agrees. So instead of worrying about colleges all summer, she has to worry about something she knows nothing about. At an attempt to keep Jaelyn's training sane, Jesse creates a roommate agreement so they both can have a life and so Jaelyn can kick ass at the tournament. Will Jesse and Jaelyn fall for each other or will the secrets from the past be too dark for them to handle? Could problems in the present tear them apart and ruin their training? Will Jaelyn beat Mae? Will Jaelyn be able to complete the tournament?
