The Grimm are coming to an end…the second to last book
He is the love of all her lives…
Grimm’s Circle, Book 8
Thomas Finn, troublemaker, gunslinger, guardian angel…loner. More than a hundred and fifty years ago, he was shot in the back then brought back to life just in time to watch a demon masquerading as his best friend kill the love of his life.
Now, as a Grimm, he satisfies his need for vengeance hunting down demons like the ones that took Rebecca from him. His mission: kill as many as he can, then, when the time comes, go down in a blaze of glory. But with each kill, he comes closer to a line no angel should cross.
Her name was Rebecca. Then it was Tilly. Then Ada. Now, Kallypso. She’s lived so many lives, she can’t even remember when or why it started. All she knows is, she’s always searching for a man with golden eyes that make her burn. And when she finds him—as she always does—she knows that spark of joy means she’s only seconds away from death…again.
This time will be no different…unless something breaks the cycle once and for all.
Warning: Contains the Groundhog Day of star-crossed lovers, a pissed-off guardian angel, a demon-hunter with an axe to grind, and the battle to end all battles. Be warned…there’s pain ahead in this book. Oh, and that HEA finally happens. For these two, anyway.
This will be the second to the last in the Grimm series…make sure you read it…want to see how it all comes down…
Excerpt:
Well, lookey here. Mr. Shiny.
He was new. I haven’t seen anybody like him before.
Looking at a demon was like looking into a maw of death.
This man, made me wish I had sunglasses, not that they would help.
I saw these things…well, you can just say I see the entire world a little differently.
Sunglasses, flashlights, nothing altered the view.
This man glared with light.
Once I’d adjusted to his glow, I almost snorted at his appearance—white, all white from head to toe. Man, did he want to attract attention or what?
Except he didn’t…not exactly. I saw people look at him, and I mean look, but as he drew nearer, they couldn’t look away fast enough. It wasn’t normal, I decided. After what had just happened, people should be looking at him. A lot. Hell, I was looking at him and not just because of the weird getup he had on. He was…well, beautiful didn’t seem quite the right word. He was beautiful in the way a Siberian tiger would be, even as he was about to close his teeth around your throat.
That’s what it was, I realized.
He was a deadly, menacing, beautiful threat.
Clad all in white and shining so bright, it almost dazzled that inner eye of mine.
Not everybody would see the threat, and I was used to being the only one who could see the weird, but why weren’t other people gaping at the crazy getup, why weren’t women ogling that surreal face, framed by pale hair that couldn’t possibly be real yet I knew it was. He should have at least a few women trying to approach him, he was that delicious.
Yet I watched as the crowd literally parted for him. Like Moses and the Red Sea.
People who had been staring at him from a distance found themselves looking anywhere but at him as he moved closer, gliding left, gliding right, whichever way would remove them from his path and once he had passed, the space closed back up.
Nobody seemed aware of the weird ballet they were performing as they swayed into and out of the path he was creating.
It was him.
I knew it as sure as I breathed.
How completely insane was this.
I shoved off the wall, determined to get closer and study him. He was new, something I’d never seen.
