How do YOU rate this book?
Chase Michaels thought being cursed to live forever was a pain in the butt, until he finds himself on the trail of a runaway bride. When the lovely Mrs. Belle Gardner puts three shots right into his chest, he discovers pain in the butt doesn't even begin to cover the trouble he's let himself in for.
Learning that his client lied to him and that his trace is really the client's stepdaughter, Chase's rusty conscience gets the better of him. He agrees to protect her, only to find himself sinking into a deeper mystery that somehow connects Belle to his curse. Thrown headlong into a dark world where fairytales walk the earth, he must fight to keep them both alive. As a war of apocalyptic proportions breaks out around them, Chase struggles to discover if he can stand being immortal if it means losing the one thing he's never had -- love.
EXCERPT
Scanning the gloom, Belle caught a flash of golden flesh hidden among the green darkness ahead. It was Chase! She knew it without a doubt. Her calves screamed and her thighs burned as she pushed legs beyond their limits. Belle shoved the pain away. She could deal with the Charlie Horse later, right now, getting to Chase was the only thing that mattered.
Reaching him, the sight awaiting her broke her heart into a thousand pieces. Chase sat slumped against a tree, his arms wrapped around his legs. Belle fell down to the ground in front of him, tears racing down her face. Hiding behind the matted shaggy mane of his long hair, Chase's face appeared ghostlike and wane. Her fingers trembled as she brushed it away. Behind the curtain of hair, a look of such serenity greeted her. Running her fingers over his closed eyes, reality came crashing down around her.
Sobs welled in her throat. Dammit to hell, they were too late. He was dead. Tears flowed down her cheeks, as she gazed into his face. Despite her earlier thoughts, he had been her knight in shining armor. Now, he was gone. She bowed her head unable to look at him anymore. The pain of seeing him like this made it all too real.
"Belle, I can't look that bad," Chase coughed. "Now, if you want to see bad, turn around. Caern's sorry mug is something worth crying over."
"Chase!" Belle's head popped up. "You're not dead."
"And you're real this time." He smiled into her face.
"What?" He was delirious. They hadn't gotten here a moment too soon.
"Nothing, it doesn't matter." Chase winced, as a smile cracked his face. "You're here now."
Belle scrambled to catch him as he collapsed into her arms. "Chase!"
Caern rushed over and helped her lay him on the ground. Raiz reached over her, gently placing his jacket over Chase's body. Belle straightened it above him, until only Chase's head poked out from under the massive fur coat. She ran her hand down his blood crusted cheek. His skin so cold to the touch, her hand flinched back involuntarily. Death crept through his body. Her tears fell onto his face, tiny tornados of steam to rise from the frozen flesh. She leaned forward, praying for some sign he was still with them.
"Wake up. You can't die on me now," she whispered, her breath bringing a patch of pink onto his face.
"I held on for you. I'm not about to die now." Chase's eyes fluttered open. "They promised to help me to stick around."
"Who did?"
"Ghosts from the past." A series of coughs wracked his body. "But I guess I'm having the last laugh on those witches. I'm dying after all."
"No you're not. I won't let you," Belle cried.
"I will be honest and say that I originally chose this book because I like J. Morgan’s writing, and I was looking forward to another humorous and entertaining reading experience. What I got was so much more than that. This is a fast paced thrill ride, edge of your seat action and adventure. There is some tongue in cheek humor, but this is a very romantic story of redemption and salvation."
