And can Evie prove there was a murder when her body is already dead and buried? With the go ahead from Alexis, Evie is determined to put to rest all doubts into Diana Dupont's odd death and give the family the closure it needs. But did the illness take her, or was there foul play? And most importantly, will she ever get paid? Evie Harper Mysteries: Book 4Concluída

Unfolding Eternity: The Eternity Series Vol. 2
Corey Reeves thought he had already lived through his worst nightmare-until Daniel came back from the dead... or undead depending on how you look at it, to rip open wounds that had never truly healed. The brother he was never meant to meet. The man whose death dictated the course of his life. Now, the one responsible for every terrible thing that has happened to him, Brittany, and the all people he cared about. Annemarie Vallier has spent centuries in the shadows, watching, waiting-until Corey was finally within her reach. But as their bond deepens, so does the weight of Daniel's deception. He isn't just another enemy; he is solely responsible for the pain in Corey's eyes, the mastermind pulling the strings long before she knew he was behind it all, but how did she miss it? Torn between revealing the full extent of Daniel's motives and keeping Corey from spiraling even deeper into rage, Annemarie is finding herself battling more than just old skeletons. The connection between her and Corey is undeniable, it's intense, and far more consuming than she ever expected. As danger is closing in from all sides, there's no time to slow down, no room for hesitation. Knowing Daniel's betrayal is just the beginning of what's to come. If Corey and Annemarie want to survive what's coming next, they have to decide just how far they're willing to go for revenge, for redemption, and for each other.

I refuse to look up at him. He gives off an aura that is dark and intimidating. My eyes begin to swell with tears at the thought that I will end up like the man before me. "Look at me," he commands in a deep voice. I refuse. He commands again this time more cynical, "Look. at. me!" His voice booms off the walls, echoing in the room. I flinch at the tone but still refuse. Then suddenly, he roughly raised my chin. My eyes meet his cold blue ones. His eyes seem to soften for a moment then quickly return to their cold state. He muttered something under his breath that I didn't catch. He lets go of my chin and walks around, scanning me with his eyes. "What am I to do with you?" He mutters to himself. After a few moments, he is back in front of me. He smirks, "I will make you my personal chambermaid." CONTINUE THE STORY INSIDE...
