★★★★★ "Very gripping and powerful! I couldn't put the book down, and I bought the whole Order of the Blade series!" ~ Amazon Review

Talismans carved into his body. A lethal darkness amassing inside him. A woman who calls to his spirit on levels so intimate and so passionate that his deadened soul screams in agony. Kane Santiago forgot his past for a reason…and it's coming back for him.

Sarah is on the verge of losing everything, but she can't afford to trust Kane, who is either the key to her final destruction…or her only chance of survival.

Bound together by a connection so deep that it has the power to bring the past and all its nightmares back to life, Kane and Sarah must tap into the hearts they closed down so long ago or lose everything, including their souls.
