    Three prophecies. Two queens. One love. 
     
     
     
    Hour zero. 
     
     
     
    The world teeters on the brink of a fated apocalypse and time is running out. The Fae have one chance to save the earth from the demons that seek to possess its inhabitants . . . but there is no promise of victory when three prophecies foretell three outcomes—all with separate victors. 
     
     
     
    Worse, Cassie is without Orion, who has fallen prey to a scheming demon prince and transformed into her most deadly foe. Racing against the clock to fulfill the only prophecy that will keep them alive, she must find a spell that will bring the young queens into their full power before war is upon them. 
     
     
     
    But as the world crumbles to dark forces, alliances are broken, sides are swapped, and enemies descend in all forms. Without Orion at her side, Cassie's darkest hour looms. The only hope she has is to convince Orion that his heart belongs to her, her soul belongs with his, and that they are fated to be together, in love, for the rest of their lives. 
     
     
     
    For as long—or as little—as those lives might still last. Or everything they fought to save will be forever lost.

    Fresh off investigating the ambush murders of two police officers, Colorado Bureau of Investigation Agent, Buck Taylor and his team are called upon to find a missing journalist, in a case that leads to child porn, and murder, in the much anticipated fourth “Crime” novel.  
    She was about to thank the Good Samaritan when he reached a huge hand behind her head and in one swift move slammed her forehead into the steering wheel. The blow was so hard that it cracked the top of the steering wheel. It took two more blows to knock her out. 
    He put the car in gear and, checking once more up and down the highway, pushed the car past the end of the guardrail and stopped it at the edge of the drop-off. The reservoir was still frozen, but he hoped that enough of the thaw had occurred to make the ice thin enough so the car would crash right through it. He was confident that the snowfall that was underway would cover the hole in the ice. 
    With one last look up and down the empty highway, he closed the door, walked behind the car and gave it a shove. With a grinding of metal against rock, the car bounced over the edge and rolled down the side of the reservoir, crashing into the ice with a loud bang, and after a second’s hesitation, broke through the ice and disappeared beneath the surface. He stood on the shoulder of the road and watched until the taillights blinked off.
