I feel my foot graze against something and bravely glance down, my mouth going desert dry as I see the bloodied blade that I assume was used to kill Theo.

My heart jolts in fear.

My insides shiver and shake.

Dread lifting the fine hairs at the nape of my neck.

My movements cease for a split second, long enough to have my mind reeling.

That’s when I see him step out from the shadows.

His chiseled perfect features emerge from the soft-glow lighting in the hallway as he rounds the corner, revealing himself.

Whoever he is, his face makes me want to run my fingers down the perfect symmetry of his bone structure.

My heart rate picks up as a tingle of heat runs down my spine, and I swear to God the atmosphere fills with magnetic sexual chemistry.

Instant attraction.

He’s beautiful and huge—his frame rippling with fierce muscle, and his long dark blonde hair, neatly trimmed beard, and eyes the color of autumn have stunned me stupid. The force of my reaction to him is alarming.

Sickness in my stomach churns over my way of thinking, and his nerve-wracking stare as he slowly shifts his eyes up and down my body is enough to silence the thoughts that are screeching through me as I bend to lift the knife into my hand.

For the first time since I came home, my jumbling emotions make way for something else, something much more reasonable, and I shudder as the breath leaves the man’s chest in tandem with mine, our gazes tangling.

His is rippling with hostility.

By the time I’m upright, he’s cleared the distance between us, only a few feet remaining between him and me.

This is it. Theo’s final ‘fuck you’ farewell.

At the same moment I raise my arm to lift the knife toward him, he raises a rifle and points it directly at my head.

In this moment, I’m certain of only one thing.

I’ve just come face to face with the man who killed my husband.

Review:

The collaboration from these two authors on Relinquish was epic. They did an amazing job keeping this story not only engaged but making you think one thing when something totally different happens. It will keep you on your toes and guessing that is for sure. Ezra has been through so much when his life takes an unexpected turn he now has a new life as a killer. He works for an elite team that is small but powerful. When a job doesn't turn out right and the wife of that job is standing there well there is only one choice to take her. Lily thought that she was in love with her husband and her life when she finds out things that no wife wants to know. Now she's in hiding with the man she believes destroyed things. Ezra and Lily have a powerful connection that seems unbreakable. However, there is an outside force this about to rip their worlds apart. Can Ezra save Lily, let her into his life, and they live happily ever after? Find out because you won't believe what happens. I sure the heck didn't. I was shocked, to say the least.
