Description:
Being
dead sucks, or so Vincent Asher believes. He’s spent the last two
hundred years of his death battling vampires because his boss won’t
let him kill demons. Known as a force called the Wraith, Vincent has
become bored with preventing the apocalypse. When he hopes his boss
will give him a more exciting assignment, he gets the shock of his
afterlife. He must protect the woman who killed him.
Bryna
Wildrose accidently killed the only man she ever loved. In a
self-imposed death sentence, she’s spent the last ten years of her
life trying to get herself killed. She never meant to kill Vincent,
and the guilt is eating her alive. A vampire gives her a dire
warning. The Wraith is coming for her. She can run, or she can let
death take her.
Given
no choice, Vincent goes back in time to find the one woman he loved
more than life itself, but when he expected to torment her for
causing his death, he learns nothing is what he believed it to be.
Real love never dies, but Vincent’s power might not be enough to
keep Bryna alive.

Excerpt-Prologue
Death
sucked. Sure, the women were hot and the ability to move back and
forth through time to fend off the apocalypse was entertaining, but
even the afterlife could become monotonous. Fast times and even
faster women had become his stint in existence. True, such things as
illness and pesky bullets couldn’t kill him any longer, but Wraith
was getting bored. At some point in the last two hundred years he
decided his fate had been Hell instead of Time Walker limbo; he’d
just been too naïve to know it at the time of his death. Actually,
it was probably about the time he’d earned his moniker instead of
going by his Earthly name.
He
ducked down when a vampire swung at him with a two-by-four. He popped
up, caught the board on its second swing, cracked it over his knee,
and then stabbed the undead with the sharp end. Why should he have to
endure Hell by his lonesome? The vampire burst into a smoky cloud of
ash which fell to the alley before it was gently blown away.
Wraith
looked at his watch.
New
York City, 1939. He pulled his crumpled list out of his pocket and
checked where he was supposed to go next. New Orleans, 2085. Great.
There was nothing worse than having to go to the largest vampire nest
in North America, but they were still boring. He perked up a little.
Maybe it wasn’t a vampire this time and he’d get another crack at
a demon. Those were always so much more interesting to kill when
Felix decided to let him, which wasn’t very often.
He
checked his list again and watched as all his assignments vanished
one by one.
Shit.
What
the hell had he done now to get in trouble? He’d been good for the
last decade—well, there had been that one night in a Hestia temple
with two virgins, but it hadn’t been his fault. They’d asked him
to stay. Besides, that was five years ago. Surely he wasn’t getting
into trouble for that.
Headquarters
appeared on the page in big glowing letters. He walked down the alley
and visualized headquarters, and the imagery around him blurred from
dank, garbage-ridden streets to bright white halls lined with gold
trim.
Yep.
He
was in Hell all right.
He
walked down the hall with its never-changing view until a large door
out of nowhere swung open.
“Get
your ass in here!” Felix bellowed.
“I’m
here.”
“You’re
late,” he snapped.
Wraith
arched a brow at him, but didn’t say anything. Felix was like a
bazillion years older than he and could send his ass back to the
Bronze Age to deal with babes who didn’t know how to bathe or
shave. “Yeah, so sue me. What did I do this time?”
“We
found out the point in time that causes the apocalypse. It’s your
job to go stop it.”
Wraith
sighed. Same old, same old. When was he going to get an exciting
assignment? He stuck out his hand for the transparent cellophane-like
material Felix handed to him and looked down at the forming image.
Two hundred years of annoying monotony drained away as raw rage
boiled in his system. “No. I’m not doing the job.”
Felix
rolled his eyes. “You’re not supposed to kill her, dumbass.
You’re supposed to protect her.”
Wraith
glared at his asshole superior. “Like hell I am. Find someone else,
or I guess it’s The Apocalypse Meets the Twenty-third Century.”
“It’s
this or judgment.”
Wraith
started to curse. “You’re kidding me? I have to save that bitch
or you’re going to throw my ass in Hell?”
“Yeah,
ain’t the afterlife a bitch?” Felix said without sympathy. “Get
going. I need you there a day before the main attraction.”
Wraith
pulled out his assignment sheet and looked at the time. It was the
day before what should have been his twenty-eighth birthday. He’d
never had an assignment so close to his death date before. That
wasn’t affecting him nearly as much as having to save the life of
the woman who killed him.
