    The attacks are brutal, leaving the victims unconscious and broken. A powerful Mindhealer might be able to piece together what's happening to these crushed bodies and shattered minds, so Caroline Robbins is pulled away from her relatively quiet life. It's dangerous—Mindhealers are incredibly vulnerable to the Dark—and Caro refuses even the idea of having a Watcher. She won't have another man die in front of her, and that's that. Unfortunately, the Watcher she just ran into has other ideas . . .
    Caro, the witch Merrick rescues from the dogs of the Dark, is obnoxiously stubborn, infuriating, and seemingly determined to throw herself into every dangerous situation possible. It's enough to drive a man insane, and definitely enough to make a Watcher frustrated. How is he supposed to protect her, especially when she insists she doesn't need a Watcher? But Caro is going to need all of Merrick's skill and strength sooner than anyone guesses. The attacks haven't stopped, and the closer Caro gets to solving the mystery, the more danger she's in. Because she's the next victim—unless Merrick can save her. And Merrick just might die in the line of fire if Caro can't find a way to keep her Watcher safe.

    Everyone believes Robin Maddox is fragile — a soft-spoken survivor of a brutal childhood, saved by the powerful man who adores her.
    
    When the girl who once tormented Robin walks free, Robin's fiancé Adrian Kane swears vengeance on her behalf. But vengeance curdles. Adrian's certainty wavers, the bully whispers poison, and soon Robin finds herself the one accused of lying, locked away while her tormentor takes her place.
