[Shayne Davies 03] • Heart and Soul

(Careful! While the Shayne Davies series can be read as a stand-alone, this book does reveal certain spoilers from the Nora Jacobs series, so be warned! See the recommended reading order below for reading both series together.)

Sharing a life with Jay Brenner is everything Shayne hoped it would be: date nights out, mornings sleeping in, and full access to his heart, body, and mind. Life would be perfect…if there weren’t half a dozen underworld villains who want them dead. They can’t step one foot outside without somebody trying to kill them. The Detroit underworld is lethal for even the most powerful beings, so how in the world will Shayne be able to protect a mere human? If vampires and demons don’t kill her, the constant worrying will. Everybody knows that love always comes with risk, but c’mon, this is ridiculous.

To make matters worse, Brenner discovers a major clue in the case of the revenants who killed his sister, and now there’s no stopping him from picking a fight they can’t possibly win. Shayne’s first instinct is to run and hide, to stay out of sight. But as deadly threats, both old and new, begin to pile up, she must accept the hard truth: the only way to have any kind of life with Brenner is to stop running, face their enemies head on, and end this fight. All Brenner wants is to avenge his sister, no matter the cost, but for Shayne, the only success that matters is for Brenner to still be alive when the dust settles.
