Jena Childs didn’t ask to be gifted. Yet, her life has been
overwhelmed by a psychic power she can’t control. The sexy Londoner’s
power to shape plus control electricity separated her from the norm
since the day she’d been born. Yet, she never stopped longing for the
acceptance that had long been denied her. In an impulsive act to change
her living circumstances, Jena is caught using her abilities leading to
a meeting that will change her life forever.
Agent for a super secret psychic operations program MI7, Adam
Reynolds isn’t looking for anything from the buxom cocoa-skinned beauty
he’s been sent to append for involuntarily induction into MI7’s psychic
ops program. But, one glance into her deep dark eyes stirs feelings in
him he’d accepted he’d never know. The turn of her head and the
moistness of her lips bring out a longing for connection to her in him
that leads him to put his life on the line to avoid Jena’s capture by
his superiors and the psychic crime organization, The Pulse.
Their desire--immediate, strong and undeniable--leads them into each
others’ arms, where Adam receives a startling revelation that could mean
Jena’s life or death. A thousand lost lifetimes are revealed in his
lover’s eyes, leading Adam on a quest to discover the mysterious origins
of his own soul and the tie to the woman who walked out of his dreams
into his life.
Yet, the dogged determination of a secret enemy has the potential to
drive the lovers apart forever. Can Adam, seeking redemption from the
damnation of a thousand lost lifetimes, save the woman he loves from
death or will a tragic history repeat itself?
Excerpt:
“If you’ll come
with me now, I’ll do everything in my power to help you.” She felt
shocked to hear such honest sincerity in his words.
It felt almost
as if he had said those same words or something similar to her dozens of
times before. With the feeling of rightness that came from looking at
him came an odd feeling of fear, as if time were running in a direction
she couldn’t completely keep up with. She only hoped she could face
whatever task lay ahead of her.
Jena
didn’t know if what Lt. Reynolds had just said to her could be true.
He’d proven himself an enemy, wanting to capture her for a government
agency who wanted God knew what from her.
Yet, what other
choice did she really have? She glanced at all the frightened people
around her, who were looking at her as some sort of monster. All she had
ever really wanted or needed was someone to believe in her.
Not her father,
or the mother who had abandoned her for his drunken ways; not the dozens
of unnamed, half-remembered faces since. Now, for the first time in a
long while, a man wanted her to believe in him.
She didn’t know
what to do.
Nevertheless,
one question weighted heavily on her mind. Why had Adam been unaffected
by her out of control kinetic abilities?
Something in
his expression showed her she could trust him. She knew what she needed
now—a way to get away from here before someone else got hurt. With a
silent nod of her head, she allowed him to take her hand.
It felt right,
as if she’d done it dozens of times before.
She didn’t know
who seemed more relieved at her quieting demeanor, him or her. Her heart
moved like a rushing wild thing when his larger hand clasped hers. Still
the uncontrolled electrical impulse flowed around her.
With the tingle
of his hand in hers came an undeniable sexual spark. One, she was
surprised to admit, that drove right to her core. Jena could only hope
that no one else had seen the strange effect he had on her.
The crowd
parted quietly as Adam gathered her closer to him. The surge of her
power was still bright as lights switches and machines sparked, burning
out as they moved past. One plainclothes officer called to Adam, “Lt.
Reynolds, where are you taking her?”
Adam appeared
not to hear him when he attempted to repeat his question.
Jena and Adam
moved together as one up the long, dingy stairwell leading outside. She
could hear the soft footsteps of the plainclothes officer quietly
following them as he continued to try to make contact with his superiors
on a walkie-talkie which didn’t work. What could Jena do now?
