Shadows Of The Heart

I have one “simple” task to complete to earn my way back home. Too bad the monster I need to capture is hunting me, too. Nobody said Fae life was easy... I have one minor loose end to tie up before I’ll be allowed to return to Faerie — an invisible soul-eating creature is on the loose at a major fantasy convention, and the hotel manager thinks that monsters only exist in fairy tales. As if living in a horror movie isn’t bad enough, my brother Rhys and the gargoyle I’m getting too attracted to seem to have some sort of history between them. Instead of a “loose end,” I’m dealing with the unraveling of my life. Can I defeat the soul-eater in time to meet the conditions of my return to Faerie? Or will my life – as well as those of the convention-goers – be sacrificed for greed, ambition, and a good performance review? Or worst of all, will love tempt me to stay on Earth? In this second installment of the Fae Files, Reine has to balance her desire to return home with the humanity she doesn’t want to admit she has and the need for a love she can’t accept. If you like snarky, con?icted heroines, slow-burn romance subplots, and lots of drama, then Shadows of the Heart is the book for you. Grab Shadows of the Heart to immerse yourself in a strange yet familiar new world today!
