Excerpt The highly anticipated start of a new romantic suspense series from the beloved, USA Today bestselling author of Ten Tiny Breaths. Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, a young woman defies all odds and survives—but she awakens with no idea who she is, or what happened to her. Refusing to answer to “Jane Doe” for another day, the woman renames herself “Water” for the tiny, hidden marking on her body—the only clue to her past. Taken in by old Ginny Fitzgerald, a crotchety but kind lady living on a nearby horse farm, Water slowly begins building a new life. But as she attempts to piece together the fleeting slivers of her memory, more questions emerge: Who is the next-door neighbor, quietly toiling under the hood of his Barracuda? Why won’t Ginny let him step foot on her property? And why does Water feel she recognizes him? Twenty-four-year-old Jesse Welles doesn’t know how long it will be before Water gets her memory back. For her sake, Jesse hopes the answer is never. He knows that she’ll stay so much safer—and happier—that way. And that’s why, as hard as it is, he needs to keep his distance. Because getting too close could flood her with realities better left buried. The trouble is, water always seems to find its way to the surface.

I froze when I saw the dark figure. He—it was definitely male—stood at the entrance of the clearing opposite to me, chest heaving. The air grew hotter and I wiped my bangs back. “Oh god,” I said and gasped. I clutched my shirt, pulling the fabric from sticky skin. He was much taller than me—at least 6’3”. “Oh god.” He strolled forward and I arched my back, attempting to get away.  His features were sharp with delicate lips and eyes a darkness I had never encountered. He was lean with broad shoulders and muscles flexed underneath his white t-shirt. I knew I couldn't take him. He was one of them. He was a giant.

Out AUGUST 16th! amazon.com/author/rscarlett "Darkness isn't one shade, sweetheart." Warning: Mature Content. Three centuries ago, Molly Darling's ancestors signed a contract in blood-daemon blood-to protect themselves from certain death. On the eve she turns nineteen, Molly leaves for her birthday party against her parent's wishes, sick of their warnings about her "betrothal to a demon." Except that she's very much betrothed, and he's very much a demon-one who's only agreed to the nuptials to steal Molly's ancient daemon powers. Brash, arrogant, and built like a Greek god, Tensley Knight keeps showing up to save Molly from otherworldly attacks, only to insult her moments later. As Molly learns more about the demon world, she realizes two things: that her family's safety depends on a successful marriage, while any chance of freedom she'll ever have calls for Tensley's demise. Yet sometimes Molly spots a tortured soul behind those liquid grey eyes, and there's no denying the way her skin tingles when Tensley touches it. In Vein of Love, safety requires sacrifice, foe becomes lover, and one must decide whether to kiss...or to kill.
