[TEASER] Reasons Found In Promises

Monster meets nihilist.
She wants death, he needs a purpose, the rest is... complicated.

Zoey's last attempt to find reasons for living almost failed entirely.

Her uncanny knack for noticing details and nihilistic attitude kept getting her in trouble, and the treatment from the staff of the psychiatric facility was not helping her faith in humanity. Until she finds herself across from a mysterious stranger whose behavior towards her contradicts everything she knows.

Ronan surrendered his freedom to protect The Village of those like him.

For twenty years he hid what he is, enduring abuse and loneliness while his inner nature threatened to break him from the inside out. Despite feeling doomed to this fate, when he collides with Zoey three times in three days, he believes her to be a gift from his Goddess. Making her a risk he must take.

With newfound purpose and a promise made, Ronan sets out to get them out of the facility and convince Zoey not to take her own life. But outside unseen strings are pulled with the intent to use corruption and law to break them both. As the past catches up to Ronan, they are forced to fight in more ways than one.

Will their bond be enough to weather the storm, or will all they build be ruined by the treachery of those who cannot let the past go?

REASONS FOUND IN PROMISES is an urban fantasy romance with elements of mystery and legal drama. This is the first in a series of connected standalones, featuring explicit open-door scenes and exploration of themes such as healing, morality, and reasons for living.
