MADISON'S
SONG

BLURB:
Madison
Carter has been terrified of Scott Lee since the night he saved her
from an evil sorcerer – then melted into a man-eating monster
before her eyes. The werewolf is a slave to the moon, but Madison’s
nightmares are not.
Despite
her fears, when Madison’s brother, Clinton, is bitten by a
werewolf, she knows there is only one man who can help. A man who
frightens her all the more because even in her nightmares, he also
thrills her.
Together
for the first time since that terrible night, Scott and Madison drive
to Clinton’s home only to discover that he’s vanished. Frantic
now, Madison must overcome her fears and uncover hidden strengths if
she hopes to save him. And she’s not the only one fighting inner
demons. Scott’s are literal, and they have him convinced that he
will never deserve the woman he loves.
*Stand-alone
companion to the Cassie Scot series
Excerpt;
The
first police car screamed into the lot, skidding to a halt so close
to the front of the truck that it was a miracle it hadn't hit. They
were caught. Madison glanced at Scott for instructions, but his eyes
were closed and he was muttering something under his breath –
casting a spell.
Two
uniformed officers spilled from their car, but they didn't come
towards them. Instead, they went for Mick and his dad, cutting them
off before they could pile into a rusty Toyota. Then another squad
car screamed into the lot, ejecting two more officers who went into
the building.
“Go,”
Scott murmured.
She
barely heard him, but she obeyed. She put the truck in reverse,
carefully backed away from the police car trying to kiss their
bumper, then threw the truck into drive and peeled away. Madison kept
glancing at the mirrors, even though the angles were wrong, looking
behind them for the cars that would surely give chase. They didn't.
The police officers acted as if they couldn't even see them.
It
wasn't just the policemen who couldn't see them, as Madison
discovered when she pulled into traffic. She screamed and slammed on
the brakes, barely missing a collision when a car changed lines
directly into their side.
“Are
we invisible?” Madison asked.
