Part of Lux, book 2
First published 2012
Katy Swartz wants nothing more than to cut her psychic connection to Daemon Black, the alien who saved her life. She's convinced their intense feelings stem from their supernatural link, not genuine attraction. Daemon disagrees and pushes to prove their bond runs deeper than alien magic. Their relationship drama takes a backseat when the Department of Defense arrives in town. If government agents discover Daemon's extraterrestrial abilities and his connection to Katy, both face deadly consequences. A mysterious new student offers Katy help, but his assistance requires deceiving Daemon and maintaining distance from him. This proves nearly impossible as Katy's feelings intensify. Everything shifts when Katy encounters someone who should be dead. She must tell Daemon the truth, knowing he'll never stop hunting for answers about his brother's fate and the person who betrayed him. The DOD's true intentions remain unclear, but their interest in both Katy and Daemon spells danger.
