Excerpt:
With his presence still sizzling on her skin and his hazel eyes still
haunting her thoughts, Vanora pondered the words that Armando had spoken in his
silky Spanish accent.
You must go home, he had said.
Hugging herself, she gazed into the darkness surrounding her, wondering
if Armando still lingered in the shadows observing her. That he had sought her
out both thrilled and terrified her. When she had first seen him standing on
the lighted path of her apartment complex, the mere sight of his enigmatic
smile had set her heart aflutter. But now that he had slipped back into the
darkness, her heart beat with fear.
Could she go back to Houston and face all she had run from? Could she
forget the evils she had beheld on her eighteenth birthday? Could she just
abandon the life she had meticulously created for herself over
the
last two years and return to the mansion that was haunted by death and pain?
You must go home.
Armando’s words echoed in her mind.
Vanora lifted a hand to brush away her white-blond hair and turned to
face the dark waters of the swimming pool that glimmered in the moonlight.
To go home meant she would at last cast aside her trepidation and face
the monsters of her nightmares. Was she strong enough to do so? Was she strong
enough to go home and save the ones she loved?
With a surrendering sigh, she admitted to herself that it was time to
return to her childhood home. It was difficult to concede, but her reluctance
to return was partially because she feared allowing Armando into her life once
more. Though the creatures that dwelled in the darkness were terrifying, it was
Armando who surely frightened her.
Only he could truly steal away her heart and soul…
