Jena Parker Returns

Jena Parker is determined to find the answers that will help her put her horrible past behind her, but what she discovers may take her further into the darkness. She’s become an unstoppable force, and those who are smart will stay out of her way. Jena was once a young, innocent girl whose only dreams were to live a simple teenager’s life, go to college, and share her love with her best friend, Jake Paterson. Fate, however, had other plans for her. Now she’s caught up in a world wind of turmoil, trying to find her way back to the girl she once knew—but that girl may be lost forever. In just a short time, her life has changed. Her father has been murdered, and her mother is dead as well. The revenge she sought in finding and killing Mr. McNeil—the man she blames for unleashing her dark side—is not enough to stop the rage that boils within. What’s more, there’s a secret from her past of which she remains unaware. Mystery still surrounds the event that robbed her of her innocence, and she must discover who did it and make them pay. The past collides with the present, and lies circle around them both as Jena finds herself once again deep in love, betrayed, and force to commit murder. Only time will tell whether Jena will find redemption, or whether her destiny has been sealed by the cold rage that lives deep within her.

Desperate to uncover the truth, Jake seeks out his best friend, Ken Stewart. The two confront the crooked cop and force him to confess to the mysterious kidnapping ring. Jake and Ken then enlist an adventurous author and several others to help them rescue Jena. Jena, now fighting forces beyond her control, sees her past and present merging. Knowing the time has come to confront her dark side, and haunted by the man who murdered her father, she yearns to face her demons once and for all and find the light she believes lives within her. But will Jake and his team get to her in time? Will the lovers be reunited? Will she ever overcome her cold and blood-soaked past? While she’s caught between the two vicious armies, she also realizes the time has come to fight the hardest battle of all, to win her souls redemption which leads her to the only thing she has left: her final resolution.

Coldness is in the eyes of the beholder.... Is Jena Parker a cold person? Does something dark curl within her, waiting to spring? It doesn't appear so on the surface. Actually, Jena Parker seems blessed: She is young and beautiful. She has parents who love her and a supportive best friend, Jake Paterson, who always has her back. Even so, there is a creeping sensation she feels inside-something hopeless, something dark. Worse, it seems her neighbor is spying on her. One day, Jena catches the strange Mr. McNeil watching her. The man has always made Jena uncomfortable, but now more than ever, she feels something bad might happen. Her life takes a dark turn just as Jake reveals he loves her. But Jena doesn't see Jake that way and is worried he could ruin their friendship forever with his confession. Things take another turn for the worse when Jena's father life is in jeopardy. Someone is out to get her, and she knows it. Even her dreams are warning her to beware, but what does Jena have to fear more-predators who mean to harm or her internal monster, poised to attack? Even a nice, normal girl can be pushed over the edge by horrendous circumstance. What is Jena willing to do to stop this darkness from happening? With no one left to trust, Jena Parker may lose more than a parent; she could possibly lose her mind.
