When Maya Reed finds herself stuck between two entirely different worlds, her own and Jaime Valentine's one, she doesn't know what to expect. Even though her curiosity to discover the truth about him is bigger than her fear of the unknown, some of the things she tries to find are better left buried. However, the deeper she digs - the more she discovers that maybe her world isn't what she thought it was. Maybe the solution isn't to separate those two worlds... Maybe if she combined them, she will find the answer to all of her questions. Maybe even to the ones, she's been asking her whole life...

❝ Who are you? What are you? ❞
I asked trying to hide my fear, but the shakiness in voice gave me away. There was a dead silence following after. He didn't answer right away, but shifted even closer until I could feel his breath creating a path on my skin near my jaw.
❝ You already know... ❞
He whispered as only his red eyes illuminated the darkness around us. His voice was firm like stone. It was how I imagined death to sound like - cold and lifeless.

Considering the paranormal world she is about to dive head first into, she will come to realize that figuring out her heart may just be the easiest part of this journey. Well, the endless supply of supernatural hotness in this story may beg to differ-but that's besides the point. Either way, it's gonna be a killer time ;) EXCERPT Chicken tacos it is. Right as Renata grabbed the ingredients, she turned to put them next to the stove, where a clean, plastic cutting board awaited. But as she moved, she was confronted by a stranger, an intruder, standing mere inches from her. Before she could scream, he was on her, slamming her against the fridge. Her back flashed with sharp pain. Her eyes pricked with fear as she drank in his uncovered face. Deeply tanned skin. Ruby red eyes-ruby red eyes? Thick, slashing eyebrows. Flat, broad nose. Buzzcut. Handsome. That was as far as she would go in complimenting him considering this guy held a knife to her throat. When he spoke, his voice came out like thunder. It held a thousand threats and a thousand secrets. It held promise of pain if provoked. "If you scream," he warned, mouth pulled in a slight snarl, "this ends quickly." She didn't dare nod against the blade. He noticed and amusement lit up for just a second in those devilish eyes. Oh, whoever the fuck this was, she already hated him. Considering her predicament, panic was the most prominent emotion coursing through her at the moment. "Good." He removed his hand "Now you're going to answer my questions." °°MATURE AND EXPLICIT CONTENT OF ALL KINDS, AND I MEAN ALL KINDS°Complete
