Charring Bones - Paperback

You're either the hunter or the hunted. The lion or the lamb.

Bound on an altar. Belts of deceit.

Tangerine skies. Taunted by time.

Scorch. Stack. Salt.

Gage

She's my nightmare. My weakness. My Wicked.

Ainsley Morelli was everything I craved, the breath in my lungs, my only home.

But she sent me to die, and threw dirt on my grave.

That was another life. When she had the upper hand.

In this one, I'm the lead enforcer for KORT. And she's on the run and in my backyard.

I've waited years to ruin her and her family.

Her smoking gun might do it for me.

No need to rush. I've always enjoyed playing with my prey.

Ainsley

My life as a Morelli has been full of duplicities.

Betrayal traded for loyalty.

Becoming a fugitive for freedom.

And Gage Porter was at the center of every unraveling thread.

Only he wasn't Gage then. And he didn't survive-or so I thought.

Until a man three times the size of the boy with amber eyes pins me to a wall in the shelter where I took refuge.

That tracks.

I sought protection and became a prisoner.

But times are changing.

In this story, the burnt offering rises to be the butcher.

Freed by the very hands that counted my fleeting breaths.

Until the ticking stops.

Family means sacrifice.

This is book four in The KORT Series.
