She was wrong. Bound to Hun-Came, the Mayan god of death, Niki has become something she never wanted to be—a killer. As bodies pile up and her control slips away, salvation arrives in the form of a cryptic message from Zen, the man who once held her heart. There's a way to sever the supernatural bond, but it requires a perilous journey to Guatemala where ancient magic still pulses through the mystical jungle. Niki knows all too well the risks. Hun-Came has ruled death for millennia, and he won't release his human vessel without extracting a price that could destroy everything—and everyone—she loves. Some bloodlines can't be outrun, some hungers can't be denied, and some attractions are dangerous enough to wake the dead. She sacrificed herself for love—now she must save herself. Return to the Guatemala’s jungles with author Lisa Dietrich in her exciting sequel to In the Silence of Darkness. This time Niki is battling not only to save the people she loves but her own soul. Some bloodlines can't be outrun, some hungers can't be denied, and some attractions are dangerous enough to wake the dead. EXCERPT: Bracing myself against the sink, I confronted my reflection. A stranger stared back—pale, haunted, with dark eyes that seemed older than the rest of my face. Water dripped from my hair onto my shoulders, each cold droplet a reminder of how exposed I felt. “What am I doing here?” I whispered to myself. “They are obstacles,” Hun-Came’s voice slithered through my mind, not with his usual rage but with something far more dangerous—reason. “The shapeshifter seeks to use you. The druid seeks to control you. Neither understands what we could become together.” A chill traced my spine despite the steam-filled bathroom. Hun-Came had been changing, his voice growing clearer, his suggestions more... persuasive. That terrified me more than his fury ever had. “You need neither of them,” he continued, his voice like obsidian—dark, smooth, and cutting. “Embrace what you are becoming, and their petty conflicts will mean nothing. I can give you power beyond imagining, Nikita Balam.” My knuckles whitened as I gripped the edge of the sink. “Get out of my head,” I hissed through clenched teeth. “I am not in your head,” he replied with cold amusement. “I am in your soul. And I have waited centuries for someone like you.” I closed my eyes and touched the iron bracelet at my wrist. The metal was cool against my fevered skin, a tangible anchor to reality. Focusing on my breathing—in for four counts, hold for seven, out for eight—I pushed against Hun-Came’s presence until he receded to that familiar dark corner of my consciousness where he lurked, watching, waiting. When I opened my eyes again, some composure had returned to my face, though the shadows beneath my eyes told their own story. I drew in one final steadying breath and reached for the doorknob, armor in place. dON'T MISS THE BEGINNING OF THE ROMANCE... AVAILABLE TODAY!
