Book synopsis

Desire can be born in darkness.

Buried alive. He wakes in darkness to find her on top of him. Preston Byron has been buried alive, but he's not alone in the dark. Sloane Armstrong is with him. On top of him. Kissing him to hold their panic at bay, promising that they will survive the nightmare around them. That help is coming...And they do survive. They are rescued. They return to reality...

But she haunts him.

Preston isn't going to let his attacker escape. He plans to hunt the killer who targeted him. A man who made Preston relive a nightmare from his past. But there was an angel in the dark with him, a woman who captivates Preston. Preston isn't about to let Sloane slip from his life. She saved him, she charmed him, and she made the critical mistake of fascinating him. Now, he will do whatever it takes to unlock all of her secrets.

Killers are her specialty. The darker the monster, the more savage the crime...

Sloane studies killers. Or, actually, she is currently studying the adult children of serial killers. Her work brought her into billionaire real estate mogul Preston Byron's life. Fine-she was semi-stalking him. Learning every detail about the gorgeous and sexy Preston that she could. Preston was kidnapped as a teen. Buried alive. Preston believed that he was just another victim of the Last Breath Killer-the only victim to survive-but Sloane has learned the shocking truth...Preston was the serial killer's biological son. Preston doesn't know about his serial killer parent. He certainly doesn't know that his father was trying to push his son into following in his own sick, murderous footsteps.

Because the darkness calls...and it tempts...

Something unlocked inside of Preston in the darkness. A beast that he'd kept chained for a long time is pressing close to the surface, demanding that he find his abductor, that he eliminate the threat. The only one who can soothe the beast is the same woman who comforted him, who kissed him, in the dark. Sloane is the key to his control...and also the one person who may be able to shatter it into a million pieces. She's keeping secrets from him, and when the truth comes out, it will upend Preston's world.

Better take a deep breath. It just might be your last.

A predator is hunting-a copycat who is enacting the Last Breath Killer's crimes, and his next target...is Sloane.

Author's Note: Preston wants her before he even sees her face. Desire sinks into his very bones, and she's his lifeline, his link to sanity when the dark presses in. There is no rule that he will not break for her, no risk that he will not take, and when the danger starts to grow around Sloane, Preston will let his beast off its careful leash, and he will eliminate every threat to her. Because she saved him when he was in the dark. And he will never, ever allow anyone to take her from him.
