~Synopsis ~
With intertwining
memories and world of deceit and betrayal yet to be exposed, Survival, book #1 in the Twisted series, is an
intense, compelling page-turner, seen through the eyes of Skye 'the Skillet'
Jones.
With no friends,
no family and a life of loneliness ahead, Skye was looking for a reason to
fight. To live. To survive.
A once happy
family was torn apart, leaving a hazy cloud of confusion, abandonment and fear
in its wake. Her twin brother, Oliver, was all she had. Until the talons
of death and the consequences of his dangerous coping mechanism tore his life
from him.
Skye was left
alone, mourning the loss of her brother and the life he would never live,
when Cut Throat Curtis swooped in and taught her to fight; to control her
emotional anguish with physical strength. But he was dangerous, a force to be
reckoned with. A man with turmoil and secrets of his own. He soon left as
quickly as he'd appeared, becoming a ghost in the life she no longer knew.
She had nothing.
She had no one.
When all Skye had
was her will to survive, fate have her Thomas. He fought for her, he fought
with her and he loved her like no other.
But fate was
waiting, ready to strike with the force of a hurricane when she thought she had
everything she'd ever wanted. It was coming, the cruel twist of fate that would
bring Skye to her knees and threaten her survival once more...
~ Excerpt ~
Curtis took a step back to look at me. His
eyes darkened; it was a dangerous look that almost made me stop and kneel
before him. What was wrong with him? His eyes had turned to a chocolate storm
and his arms came up, folding over his chest. I didn’t know if he was angry; I
thought maybe I wasn’t bouncing properly. I concentrated on being light but I
felt weighed down by the tension that had consumed him. I saw it, as his eyes
moved over every inch of my body, leaving a burning trail that made me feel
like marked territory; it was the gloves, the fight. His eyes kept returning to
the ominous black leather that my hands were encased in; whatever he was
thinking was torturing him. My instincts were telling me to go to him, to comfort
him, to clear his mind in whatever way he needed, but as I prepared to go with
my instincts, he spoke.
