Police detective Jared Corbett seeks out Kate for her help in solving the case. Reluctantly, Kate agrees and they must work together to bring 8-year-old Cori Preston home to her family.

The cover is very inviting; its warm autumn color palette reflects the tone of the story perfectly. I have had mixed results with the New Adult genre – my main issue is that the characters often appear too immature for the storylines. The author crafted incredible characters that capture your attention – and lucky for me there are already two additional books available in the series; New Revelations & Dark Premonitions.

His family is falling apart, his grades are dropping, and his girlfriend just dumped him for his hockey team rival, who also happens to be his younger brother. Not to mention he hasn’t been able to snap a decent picture for his senior portfolio in weeks. But when a sultry redhead with fire burning in her eyes struts across his path, he thinks he may have finally found his muse…Angela “Angel” Davis learned early on that life never offers any hand-outs. And she’s getting burned out. Between juggling her nights as an exotic dancer at a men’s private club and struggling to keep up with her elementary education courses during the day, she barely has time to think of the future. Not that she wants to. The future implies planning, and Angel is no stranger to broken dreams. Then she meets Devin, a man who’s so wrong for her, yet she can’t seem to stay away from.When Devin offers to take her on as his private model, Angel finds the cash hard to refuse.
