'Clay Jacobs and Evie Meyers are on the run. Together. Being hunted is almost worth it, so long as that remains true. It's too much to hope that it can last. Only weeks after their reunion in Salem, his family strikes, and Clay is torn from his lover's arms once again. Alone, his certainty in their love falters. Everything he thought was true is called into question. Could his family be right? Could he have been caught in Evie's spell? Clay's obsession with finding the truth leads him on a hunt across the globe. The answer will either bring him closer to freedom or destroy the remnants of his shattered heart.

'Clay Jacobs is a soldier. His family-elite members of a secret organization-are tasked with washing the world clean of all supernatural threats. Each new day brings the opportunity to fight at their side for a cause that he's never doubted is just.‏ But Clay harbors a dangerous secret. The object of his teenage obsession was not human, and he failed to detect the truth until it was too late to destroy her. Even after she fled, he couldn't bring himself to report her. Now, the memory of the one who got away not only haunts him, it holds him captive and assaults him nightly. Unable to escape her hold on his mind, he races across the country to locate her and restore his sanity. Only instead of the monster he expects, he finds a woman who ensnares him with her charms. In her embrace, Clay dares to imagine a different life. When his family discovers his betrayal, and threaten to destroy his dreams in the worst way imaginable, Clay has no option but to return to their side and convince them he's back on the right track. Will he be able to play his part convincingly when the cause he's spent most of his life fighting for is the very thing that will end his lover's life?' (Publication summary)

'Now, all Amity allows is the truth. Get in, get out, and never let them know that she’s there. That’s the motto she's lived by for years. She considers her latest assignment nothing more than the next in a long line of jilted lovers that she’s had to help.
