They call me crazy, lethal—psychotic.

I’m all those things and more.

The darkness calls to me, sending me spiraling out of control.

But one woman calms me, bringing me back from the edge when I’m about to lose it.

She’s my savior in every way possible.

But she doesn’t even know I exist. Yet.

I see the way she struggles, trying to maintain her sanity.

I won’t let her go down the same path as my mother.

She won’t be another statistic.

There’s only one thing for me to do—take her.

It’s not kidnapping if you know the person.

She didn’t believe me when I said that.

But I’m not worried about it. She’ll soon find out there are worse things than being hitched to my wagon.

I’ll cherish the ground she walks on for the rest of my life, whether she’s in it or not.

She is my priority, the only reason I continue to live when the darkness takes over.

I’m not naive. Just because I want Anna doesn’t mean I can have her.

I am not a good man, but I am the man for her. I will protect her with my life, slaughter anyone that tries to take her from me.

And when an enemy threat looms, I’ll remove them just like any other baddie.

There is no surviving when The Phantom is calling to me.

Another unforgettable story that goes into the keeper pile to be read time and time again. The characters as were simply amazing. Fox was one of those characters that you were already in love with from previous books that the man seems mad and even a bit crazy he even has a dark side but, on the flip side he has a sense of humor is protective of those he loves. The show tune thing just cracks me up. Anna was a riot, she should have been scared out of her mind when it came to Fox but, it seemed from the moment they met they had this connection that never made sense but, was always there. Their chemistry awesome and their romantic encounters precious. I just can't wrap my head around Fox being in love. LOL Fox just cracked me up throughout this entire story with his antics when it came to Anna loved, even though he was out of his comfort zone he tried to be romantic. We loved seeing a different Fox that could be highly protective and possessive of a woman even though he thinks he is undeserving of on Anna was one of those characters that the team instantly loved, they too became protective of her. As the story progresses, things heat up, and not just in the bedroom. All the fame and fortune, and she never really cared for it all it never made her happy, overall she remained just a small town girl in her heart of hearts. Loved Fox and Anna's unusual courtship and Fox being Fox it all makes sense, at least to him but, after getting to know Anna, and Fox's kind of chaos is just what she needed to start living life again on her own terms. Overall, we loved this one from cover to cover, could not put it down and we laughed so hard at times. The dynamics of the team is fantastic, they're always teasing one another and so on, and it is infectious but, when push comes to shove they would give their lives for one another. The job this time around has them hemming and hawing which add more comedy to the story it is someone you would least expect but, those who have read past books will be in for a pleasant surprise. So loving this series and this current story, they always have the perfect mix of romance and suspense and love and laughter and characters that you can't help but, fall, head over heels for.

I'm a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, "No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book." I didn't think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn't already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow, and I haven't been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.
