The Ghosts of Cragera Bay (2014)
“He started for a long moment, frowning as memory trickled over him. The shadow man’s appearance, the furious destruction that followed and then falling into bed wrapped in Carly’s soft, lithe body.

The wind kicked up moaning through unseen cracks around the window, the sound ominous despite the sunshine outside.
He thought of those red eyes, looking into their fiery depths and knowing with absolute certainty that it wanted him.MoreLess
