SYNOPSIS
Octavian Maxwell has already given up his life once for a love that left him empty. He isn’t about to give up his afterlife for a green-eyed, red-haired spitfire with no sense of self-preservation and a smile that could melt even his icy heart, especially since he’s so close to being given a second chance at living again. For a Son of Judgment, being offered life is the reason they were so willing to murder without remorse. Octavian is one of the best. He’s never failed to take out a Mark, until the night one got away and he let it, unsuspecting of the consequences of his mistake. When the Mark tracks him, hell bent on revenge, Octavian is ready for it. What he isn’t prepared for is Riley jumping in to protect him or her death because of it.
Riley Masters has her own problems. Her father was laid off… again, bills are piling up and the rent is due. When she’s given the waitressing job at Final Judgment, it’s a dream come true, until she meets the owner’s son. Octavian makes it no secret that he wants her gone, but Riley has already signed the contract and she needs this job. She’s willing to do whatever it takes to keep it, even put up with the unreturned feelings Octavian provokes in her. The night he’s attacked, the last thing she expected to happen was to die and wake up with Octavian’s knife at her throat and her life irrevocably changed.

Octavian Maxwell ya ha renunciado a su vida una vez por un amor que lo dejó vacío. Él no está dispuesto a renunciar a su afterlife por unos ojos verdes, pelirroja sin sentido de autoconservación y una sonrisa que podría derretir incluso su corazón de hielo, sobre todo porque está tan cerca de que le den una segunda oportunidad para vivir de nuevo. Para un Hijo de la Resurrección, que se le ofrezca la vida es la razón por la que estaban tan dispuestos a matar sin remordimiento. Octavian es uno de los mejores. Nunca ha dejado de acabar con un Marcado, hasta la noche que uno se escapó y él lo permitió, sin sospechar las consecuencias de su error. Cuando el Marcado lo sigue, empeñado en vengarse, Octavian está preparado para ello. Para lo que no está preparado es para Riley interponiéndose para protegerlo o la muerte de ella a causa de eso.
Riley Masters tiene sus propios problemas. Su padre fue despedido...otra vez, las facturas se acumulan y deben el alquiler. Cuando a ella le dan el trabajo de camarera en Final Judgment, es un sueño hecho realidad, hasta que conoce al hijo del dueño. Octavian hace que no sea ningún secreto que él no la quiere ahí, pero Riley ya ha firmado el contrato y necesita este trabajo. Ella está dispuesta a hacer lo que sea para mantenerlo, incluso tolerar los sentimientos no correspondidos que Octavian provoca en ella. La noche que él es atacado, lo último que creía que iba a suceder era morir y despertar con el cuchillo de Octavian en su garganta y su vida cambiada de manera irrevocable.

TEASER TIME!! “I’ll pay it.”
He crossed his arms again, a gesture she was quickly beginning to understand as annoyance. “You can have it to me by tomorrow. I take cash only.”
The blistering surge of heat that lurched up her neck to flood her face also brought a flutter of dread cinching in her chest. “I don’t have it,” she whispered, hating herself for admitting such a thing. “But I will!”
“And how do you suppose you’re going to come up with that much in twenty-four hours?”
“By offering you… me.”
She didn’t know how it happened, how he vanished from the other side of the desk and magically appeared before her. She couldn’t fathom how his fingers found and wove themselves into her hair, twisting the copper curls until she was trapped between his hard body and the equally solid door. His angular face loomed dangerously close, bathing her tingling cheeks with the heat of his breath and the scent of mint. Eyes colder and harder than ice chips, yet dark and bottomless as the bottom of a well bore into hers, freezing her in their consuming depths.
“Do you think one night in my bed will settle the debt?” he half-asked, half-growled. “Are you really so talented, Ms. Masters?”

Airicka Phoenix is the author of the Best-Selling Touch Saga and Games of Fire, with short stories in Whispered Beginnings: A Clever Fiction Anthology and Midnight Surrender Anthology.
When she's not hammering away at the keyboard, she can be found banishing pirates or crawling through the attic looking for lost treasure with her kids. She loves baking, gardening and reading. She also likes to travel and take pictures of everything she comes across.
When asked, Airicka describes herself as a sarcastic basket case that has an unhealthy addiction to chocolate, old movies and really bad jokes. She loves to laugh, make friends and write. If she could have one wish granted, it would be to spend one day as a fly-on-the-wall inside Stephen King's mind. If she could have two wishes granted, she would ask for a castle dedicated entirely to her overwhelming collection of books.
