Shattered Bonds: book Seven of Wicked Play

His stomach turned in a hard mix of regret when he entered his house to find it cold and empty. He didn’t need to check his bedroom to know she wasn’t there. Her customary trail of jacket, shoes and bag were absent from the back entry. All items he’d come to expect.
