About the Book
“First, do no harm.” Blake Ryan swore
that oath to become a doctor. Ironic, given that he spent most of his thousand
year life sucking souls out of other immortals.
Things are different now. Using regular shots of morphine to keep his inner monster at bay, Ryan has led a quiet life since the Second World War. His thrills now come from saving lives, not taking them.
Until a plane crash brings Aleria into his hospital. Her life is vibrant. Crack to predators like him. She’s the exact sort of person they would hunt, and thanks to a severe case of amnesia, she’s all but defenseless.
Leaving Aleria vulnerable isn’t an option, but protecting her means unleashing his own inner monster. Which is a problem, because his inner monster wants her dead most of all.

I don't think Ryan's the only one in trouble...
ReplyDeleteI do hope Ryan stays strong and sorts out his demons.
ReplyDeleteAhh! I'm not sure whether to feel sorry for him or to whack him upside the head, (hopefully!) temporarily stun him and wheel Ali off to safety. :-D
ReplyDeleteWe're at T and tomorrow we have the day off! That's the True Nature of things, for sure.
