Blurb:
An exclusive new series from New York Times bestselling author Donna Grant!
There's no escaping a Reaper. I'm an elite assassin, part of a brotherhood that only answers to Death. And when Death says your time is up, I'm coming for you...
I'm a warrior. My unbreakable determination, my backbone of steel define me. As a Reaper who does Death's bidding, weakness is a word I don't understand. Until a stunning librarian stirs emotions deep within me I've never felt before. Her soft curves blunt the sharp edges of my soul, crushing my defenses - yet make me stronger. But underneath those wide eyes and fierce femininity, she has a weapon, one she won't hesitate to use. And when the Dark begin their deadly descent, we'll need each other's love and protection...or risk fracturing apart.

Excerpts
River’s
gaze was locked with Kyran. She’d seen many Fae over the years, but there was
something fascinating and absorbing about this Dark that made her heart race –
from something other than fear. If only she could lay her finger on what it
was.
She knew
what the Dark Fae did to humans, how they had sex with them, giving the humans
ultimate pleasure. And all the while the Dark drained them of their souls. It
was a horrendous way to die.
But
Kyran seemed different. She didn’t get a vibe of evil from him despite his hair
and eyes. All Dark had red eyes and silver in their black hair. Despite what he
was, she couldn’t deny his attraction. Perhaps it was the way he held her gaze,
looking at her as if he couldn’t get enough.
Her
stomach quivered, and she moved a half step closer, even as her mind warned her
to keep her distance. But she couldn’t. She had to get nearer.
He
didn’t look away. With a simple look, he invited her to get closer. It was a
temptation she wasn’t sure she could refuse.
Kyran
stretched his legs out and crossed them at the ankles. “You’re needed, River.
It’s not by accident that you know what you do about the Fae and were put in
our path. You’re destined to aid us in this.”
When she
didn’t respond, he tried again. “Think of all the innocents, like your family
and Jordyn’s, who were killed. You have a chance to help us put an end to such
things for everyone. The half-Fae will no longer need to fear for their lives.
And I promise you I’ll figure out who has hunted your family and end it.”
Her
resigned look cut through him. “You can’t do that. You work for Death. I doubt
you’ll be given leave to help me.”
“Let me
deal with that. Whether you help me or not, I’m going to find out why the Dark
are hunting your family. And then I’m going to make sure it never happens
again.”
River
swung her gaze to him. She tucked a long length of hair behind her ear. “Do I
have your word you’ll stop whoever is after me?”
“Aye.”
Kyran held out his hand.
River
stared at it a moment before she leaned up and took it. They shook, her small
hand in his. “Then I’ll help you.”
