Subject(s): Genre/Form: Summary: "Raised in a strict religious cult since she was a young girl, Jenna has no connection to the outside world beyond vague flashes of memory that seem to be from another life. Memories she clings to when the cult leaders discover her extraordinary ability to heal--and punish her. Years held captive and forced to do the cult's bidding have turned Jenna into a meek, timid woman…or so they think. In truth, she is merely biding her time, waiting for the perfect moment to escape. When a terrified young woman tries to steal the SUV of Devereaux Security's toughest recruit, Isaac's anger quickly turns into a strange sort of protectiveness for the beautiful, bruised stranger. But when they are caught in a firestorm of bullets and Isaac is hit, he's sure the end is near, until Jenna touches him and closes his wounds. As he tries to bring Jenna to safety, she refuses to tell him what danger haunts her or how she healed him, but Isaac vows to do whatever it takes to gain her trust…and her heart. Because with just one touch, Isaac knows he wants Jenna to be his--forever."--Back cover.

Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:



She can heal with a touch...or kill with a look.



Isaac, one of the toughest recruits of Devereaux Security Services, has no problem risking his life to save others. But when Isaac is tasked with taking down a female assassin--one with the power to wipe out life in the blink of an eye--he quickly realizes this job is a complete game changer.



Yet once he catches up to Maggie and captures her, fully intending to bring her in, he makes a startling discovery: She's not the cold blooded killer he's been led to believe. He quickly realizes that Maggie is in great danger and vows to protect her at all costs. Even if it means taking on the agency he has absolute loyalty to.



Maggie has the power to choose who lives or dies--and she hates her existence for it. Hunted ruthlessly by a group that will stop at nothing to manipulate her, she can't afford to trust anyone, not even a man who promises to keep her safe at all costs. She wants to believe in Isaac--but she can't afford to be wrong. If she is, it's not just her heart at risk...



Thousands of lives will pay for her mistake.

Sequel to: With Every Breath.
