Old habits die hard. And I plan on murdering someone before the night is through.
Killing used to be my regular gig, after all. Gin Blanco, aka the
Spider, assassin-for-hire. And I was very good at it. Now, I’m ready to
make the one hit that truly matters: Mab Monroe, the dangerous Fire
elemental who murdered my family when I was thirteen.
Oh, I don’t think the mission will be easy, but turns out it’s a bit
more problematic than expected. The bitch knows I’m coming for her.
So now I’m up against the army of lethal bounty hunters she hired to
track me down. She also put a price on my baby sister’s head. Keeping
Bria safe is my first priority. Taking Mab out is a close second.
Good thing I’ve got my powerful Stone and Ice magic — and my
irresistible lover Owen Grayson — to watch my back. This battle has
been years in the making, and there’s a chance I won’t survive. But if
I’m going down, then Mab’s coming with me…no matter what I have to do
to make that happen.

I’d rather face a dozen lethal assassins any night than deal with something as tricky, convoluted, and fragile as my feelings.
But here I am. Gin Blanco, the semi-retired assassin known as the
Spider. Hovering outside sexy businessman Owen Grayson’s front door like
a nervous teenage girl. One thing I like about Owen: he doesn’t shy
away from my past—or my present. And right now I have a bull’s-eye on my
forehead.
Cold-blooded Fire elemental Mab Monroe has hired one of the smartest
assassins in the business to trap me. Elektra LaFleur is skilled and
efficient, with deadly electrical elemental magic as potent as my own
Ice and Stone powers. Which means there’s a fifty-fifty chance one of us
won’t survive this battle. I intend to kill LaFleur—or die
trying—because Mab wants the assassin to take out my baby sister,
Detective Bria Coolidge, too.
The only problem is, Bria has no idea I’m her long-lost sibling . . .
or that I’m the murderer she’s been chasing through Ashland for weeks.
And what Bria doesn’t know just might get us both dead. . . .

What kind of assassin works pro bono?
It’s hard to be a badass assassin when a giant is beating the crap
out of you. Luckily, I never let pride get in the way of my work. My
current mission is personal: annihilate Mab Monroe, the Fire elemental
who murdered my family. Which means protecting my identity, even if I
have to conceal my powerful Stone and Ice magic when I need it most.
To the public, I’m Gin Blanco, owner of Ashland’s best barbecue
joint. To my friends, I’m the Spider, retired assassin. I still do
favors on the side. Like ridding a vampire friend of her oversized
stalker—Mab’s right-hand goon who almost got me dead with his massive
fists.
At least irresistible Owen Grayson is on my side. The man knows too
much about me, but I’ll take my chances. Then there’s Detective Bria
Coolidge, one of Ashland’s finest. Until recently, I thought my baby
sister was dead. She probably thinks the same about me. Little does she
know, I’m a cold-blooded killer . . . who is about to save her life.

Curiosity is definitely going to get me dead one of these days. Probably real soon.
I’m Gin Blanco.
You might know me as the Spider, the most feared assassin in the
South. I’m retired now, but trouble still has a way of finding me. Like
the other day when two punks tried to rob my popular barbecue joint, the
Pork Pit. Then there was the barrage of gunfire on the restaurant.
Only, for once, those kill shots weren’t aimed at me. They were meant
for Violet Fox. Ever since I agreed to help Violet and her grandfather
protect their property from an evil coalmining tycoon, I’m beginning to
wonder if I’m really retired. So is Detective Donovan Caine. The only
honest cop in Ashland is having a real hard time reconciling his
attraction to me with his Boy Scout mentality. And I can barely keep my
hands off his sexy body. What can I say? I’m a Stone elemental with a
little Ice magic thrown in, but my heart isn’t made of solid rock.
Luckily, Gin Blanco always gets her man . . . dead or alive.

My name is Gin, and I kill people.
They call me the Spider. I’m the most feared assassin in the South —
when I’m not busy at the Pork Pit cooking up the best barbecue in
Ashland. As a Stone elemental, I can hear everything from the whispers
of the gravel beneath my feet to the vibrations of the soaring
Appalachian Mountains above me. My Ice magic also comes in handy for
making the occasional knife. But I don’t use my powers on the job unless
I absolutely have to. Call it professional pride.
Now that a ruthless Air elemental has double-crossed me and killed my
handler, I’m out for revenge. And I’ll exterminate anyone who gets in
my way — good or bad. I may look hot, but I’m still one of the bad guys.
Which is why I’m in trouble, since irresistibly rugged Detective
Donovan Caine has agreed to help me. The last thing this coldhearted
killer needs when I’m battling a magic more powerful than my own is a
sexy distraction… especially when Donovan wants me dead just as much as
the enemy.

To be irrevocably in love with
a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously
heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her

connection to werewolf Jacob Black, she has endured a tumultuous year of
temptation, loss, and strife to reach the ultimate turning point. Her
imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals
or to pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the
fates of two tribes hangs.
Now that Bella has made her decision, a startling chain of
unprecedented events is about to unfold with potentially devastating and
unfathomable, consequences. Just when the frayed strands of Bella’s
life – first discovered in Twilight, then scattered and torn in New Moon and Eclipse – seem ready to heal and knit together, could they be destroyed… forever?

I knew we were both in mortal danger. Still, in that instant, I felt well.
Whole. I could feel my heart racing in my chest, the blood pulsing hot
and fast through my veins again. My lungs filled deep with the sweet
scent that came off his skin. It was like there had never been any hole
in my chest. I was perfect – not healed, but as if there had never been a
wound in the first place.
