BLURB:
Madison Carter has been terrified of Scott Lee since the night he
saved her from an evil sorcerer – then melted into a man-eating monster before
her eyes. The werewolf is a slave to the moon, but Madison’s nightmares are
not.
Despite her fears, when Madison’s brother, Clinton, is bitten by a
werewolf, she knows there is only one man who can help. A man who frightens her
all the more because even in her nightmares, he also thrills her.
Together for the first time since that terrible night, Scott and
Madison drive to Clinton’s home only to discover that he’s vanished. Frantic
now, Madison must overcome her fears and uncover hidden strengths if she hopes
to save him. And she’s not the only one fighting inner demons. Scott’s are
literal, and they have him convinced that he will never deserve the woman he
loves.

EXCERPT:
The first police car screamed into the lot, skidding to a
halt so close to the front of the truck that it was a miracle it hadn't hit.
They were caught. Madison glanced at Scott for instructions, but his eyes were
closed and he was muttering something under his breath – casting a spell.
Two uniformed officers spilled from their car, but they
didn't come towards them. Instead, they went for Mick and his dad, cutting them
off before they could pile into a rusty Toyota. Then another squad car screamed
into the lot, ejecting two more officers who went into the building.
“Go,” Scott murmured.
She barely heard him, but she obeyed. She put the truck in
reverse, carefully backed away from the police car trying to kiss their bumper,
then threw the truck into drive and peeled away. Madison kept glancing at the
mirrors, even though the angles were wrong, looking behind them for the cars
that would surely give chase. They didn't. The police officers acted as if they
couldn't even see them.
It wasn't just the policemen who couldn't see them, as
Madison discovered when she pulled into traffic. She screamed and slammed on
the brakes, barely missing a collision when a car changed lines directly into
their side.
“Are we invisible?” Madison asked.
