Synopsis:
Octavian Maximus has already given up his life once for a love
that left him empty. He isn’t about to give up his afterlife for a green-eyed,
red-haired spitfire with no sense of self-preservation and a smile that could
melt even his icy heart, especially since he’s so close to being given a second
chance at living again. For a Son of Judgment, being offered life is the reason
they were so willing to murder without remorse. Octavian is one of the best.
He’s never failed to take out a Mark, until the night one got away and he let
it, unsuspecting of the consequences of his mistake. When the Mark tracks him,
hell bent on revenge, Octavian is ready for it. What he isn’t prepared for is
Ryleigh jumping in to protect him or her death because of it.
Ryleigh
Masters has her own problems. Her father was laid off… again, bills are piling
up and the rent is due. When she’s given the waitressing job at Final Judgment,
it’s a dream come true, until she meets the owner’s son. Octavian makes it no
secret that he wants her gone, but Ryleigh has already signed the contract and
she needs this job. She’s willing to do whatever it takes to keep it, even put
up with the unreturned feelings Octavian provokes in her. The night he’s
attacked, the last thing she expected to happen was to die and wake up with
Octavian’s knife at her throat and her life irrevocably changed.
Octavian’s
Undoing Excerpt/Teaser
“I’ll
pay it.”
He
crossed his arms again, a gesture she was quickly beginning to understand as
annoyance. “You can have it to me by tomorrow. I take cash only.”
The
blistering surge of heat that lurched up her neck to flood her face also
brought a flutter of dread cinching in her chest. “I don’t have it,” she
whispered, hating herself for admitting such a thing. “But I will!”
“And
how do you suppose you’re going to come up with that much in twenty-four
hours?”
“By
offering you… me.”
She
didn’t know how it happened, how he vanished from the other side of the desk
and magically appeared before her. She couldn’t fathom how his fingers found
and wove themselves into her hair, twisting the copper curls until she was
trapped between his hard body and the equally solid door. His angular face
loomed dangerously close, bathing her tingling cheeks with the heat of his
breath and the scent of mint. Eyes colder and harder than ice chips, yet dark
and bottomless as the bottom of a well bore into hers, freezing her in their consuming
depths.
“Do you
think one night in my bed will settle the debt?” he half-asked, half-growled.
“Are you really so talented, Ms. Masters?”
