Damian Swift looked at the worn map in his hands that was given to him by his mother, before she died two years ago.
He walked over to the window and gazed at his demolished surroundings. He had always hated living in Bodie, which had been destroyed in the war that took place 10 years ago. But because he had no-one left, he felt abandoned, and alone.
But one day, he saw something in the distance, or rather someone. It was the figure of Catherine Parker, someone from his past he thought he would never see again...

Would you risk everything for the one you love?

He'd altered destiny. A man of iron-clad principles, he'd silenced all who dared to question him by becoming Khan Murtasim Khan and Captain Khan simultaneously. He did his duty and indulged in his passion. Why did he have to choose one? He made the rules after all...Meerab Waqas Ahmed didn't like rules. Especially ones made to control her, or any woman for that matter. Out with the old, in with the 'whatever the hell I want to do' was the way it worked in Meerab's world.

As a second-timer returned from the afterlife, all that stands between her and eternity is finding some guy named Riley Davis and helping him get his life on track. But no one told her helping Riley would mean dating him.When Cassidy realizes she's falling for Riley, she's faced with a choice: give him the life he's meant for and leave this life when it's time, or give up eternity for the true love she's never had, knowing Riley will die the same way she did in her first life and that her entire existence could end at any time.From Chapter Nine:It's as though I'm under a spell as I put one foot in front of the other, feeling Riley's hand pressed against the small of my back. My body is going crazy with the tingling I feel. I must stumble, because he steadies me and we stop a few feet away from my front door. I find myself moving even closer to him, and for a moment, I'm not Cassidy. There's something familiar in the energy I feel. Riley's face blurs in front of me, and then there's the outline of a face I used to know well.The outline I can see looks like David. The last time I stood in a driveway about to kiss someone, it was him. I want to say his name, but I can't move my lips. Then my vision clears and it's Riley in front of me again, his head bending down and his eyes holding mine. The energy pull between us is magnetic, and I hold my breath when his fingertips come up to my chin.This can't happen. I try to tell myself that, but the rest of me isn't listening. My eyes close and every nerve in my body seems to hum as I wait for what's coming.Teen Romance / Supernatural Romance / Paranormal Romance / Young Adult Romance
