Game of Shadows
by Amanda K. Byrne
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Romantic Suspense
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
The girl next door
just got deadly.
On the outside, Cass Turner looks like any other beautiful California college girl. But besides studying at UCLA, she’s hiding a shocking secret: she’s a highly trained assassin with multiple kills under her belt. After a year spent avoiding the family business, she takes what she hopes will be her final job and winds up saving her target’s life and getting way more than she bargained for…
As a lieutenant in LA's largest crime family, Dominic Kosta is determined to find out who wants him dead, and he’s convinced Cass can help him. But the longer they search for the truth, the more questions arise…and the deeper their attraction grows. Nick has his own reasons for wanting to resist Cass, but it’s a losing battle. And together, they’re free of secrets and lies. Still, getting involved with Nick has put a target on Cass’ back—and in this game, it’s either kill or be killed.

Excerpt One:
He’s why I’m here. I might as well admit it now while I can.
He has this presence that captivates me, even in a photo.
Dark hair, dark eyes, a nose, cheekbones, and a jawline that look like they
belong on a Greek god.
I’m young and female. Last time I checked, I was alive, and
my hormones were functioning on a normal level, thank you very much. I think my
reaction was well within the accepted range for someone presented with a visual
they found compelling.
It’s not so much that he’s attractive, though. It’s that
combined with something else. He looks as dangerous as me. Or the “me” that
Turner insists I’m capable of being.
Thoughts like that lead to sloppiness and distraction.
Focus, Cass. Lock it down
