I'd always been different. I saw objects in the night where others saw emptiness. Large, human shaped shadows, fierce yet beautiful, melting into the darkness. I collected secrets like other women collected bells; afraid to fully trust lest my oddities be exposed.
Until I saw him. He'd been gliding down the street, unshakable confidence in every step. It wasn't just that he was breathtakingly handsome with perfect features. Something about him drew me. Sucked my focus to him and then tugged at my body. As his eyes met mine, I was entrapped.
No one had noticed him. He'd been right there, just beyond the light, but only I had perceived.
I had to know if he was real. Or maybe I really was crazy. And even when my secret box was blasted wide open, dangers hurled at me like throwing knives, I couldn't stop until I unraveled his true identity.
I just had to know.

I huddled
on my bed later that night with my knees pulled up to my chest. Thinking.
Focusing on what it was I couldn’t remember. It was there, hovering around my
conscious mind. Nudging me. Waiting for me to pay attention. To remember. It
was the key to that insane situation in the park.I flung
my wet hair out of my face, pulled the sleeves of my pajamas over my
hands, and glanced out the window.
The
stranger waited. Outside, he watched, staring up at my shaded windows, just
wanting me to know he was there. He was waiting for me to come down to him. He
had the same questions I did—I was certain he felt the same things.
How did I
know this? I just did. And that scared the holy crap outta me!
REVIEW:5 FREAKING STARS!!!
****Warning explicit material this is not for the 18 and younger crowd****
Sasha knew things weren't right when she was growing up. Apparently being able to see shadow people meant constant scrutiny, doctor after doctor, and passed around in the foster system due to her "episodes"...yea her life was freaking awesome. It wasn't till Sasha and her sophomore sweetheart, Jared, went off to college together that things seem to be as normal as they could get. Jared took her "slips in sanity" with a shrug. Although she still couldn't open completely up to him he was her everything at the time.
It wasn't till a dinner date gone wrong that Sasha's world came crashing down onto her. That she realized her Shadow people were real! Jared and Sasha found themselves face to face with what she had seen many times, but never this close, never like this. The Shadows tried to erase what she and Jared had seen and experienced that night from their minds, but her mind would not allow it. She remembered EVERYTHING and she was going to find out just what the hell was going on.
Breene is an amazing writer and I am excited to read the next installment of the series. It is bold, sexy and will leave you wanting more!

Author Bio:
While she could wrangle numbers with the best of 'em, and even though she wore the crown as the most outspoken, belligerent accountant in the world, her mind got as stuffy as her daily routine. It was here that she dusted off her creative hat and began directing movies in her head.
