My Tease from 21% in the eBook ARC

Logan strode forward and peeled away the tent door, the zipper protesting in a squealing sound. Inside, two young women turned their tousled heads toward him. Wide, frantic eyes met his, and then darted across the tent at something near the opening.

My Review

I loved getting Logan’s story. I like when the author wraps up those little questions that nag at you when you finish a book.

Logan runs. It’s all he’s ever known. From foster home to foster home. And now from job to job.

Jade got to him. Left him feeling exposed and vulnerable in a way he’d never felt before. She knew his secret. He new hers.  Could he let her in? Dare he?

This was a wonderful insight into Logan’s story. The guy is a jumble of pent up frustration and would prefer to live a hermit’s life, cut off from emotional entanglements.

While I felt for him when a particularly nasty woman from his past entered his life again and brought up all the reasons why he should run, I was hoping Logan would man up and stop running.

I felt he and Jade might be good together.

This companion to Empath reveals a side of Logan that’s very personal. Now that I’ve felt his pain, his conflict, I like him even more.

You really need to read Empath to be able to follow Logan’s story here. I hope you do.

Rebecca is a gifted writer. Her characters are genuine, flaws and all. The world they live in appears normal, but what’s really normal. Lots going on to keep you turning pages and wanting more.

Synopsis

Logan’s secret has been exposed. When Jade—a beautiful student at the college where he teaches—discovered the truth, he spilled the whole repulsive story. Jade’s empathetic kindness flooded him with emotions he didn’t know he had and isn’t sure he wants to deal with.

It would be the easiest thing in the world to leave and let Jade be a whisper in his past. He can exit now and regain his anonymity, or he can risk everything to stay and face her again.

It’s not an easy choice, and when he’s about to decide, a woman from his past shows up, making his decision even more difficult.

What really happened when Logan disappeared during Empath? Find out in this short story companion piece to Flawed #1.

Supernatural empathy isn’t a gift, it’s a curse. Anywhere she goes, Jade’s emotions are replaced by those of the people around her.

Jade grew up in a suburb of Colorado Springs, protected from other people by her parents. Now she faces college—and the world—with nothing to shield her from unwanted feelings.

When Cam, a classmate with a major crush on her, unintentionally hijacks her emotions, Jade struggles to keep from being carried away in feelings of attraction. When Ethan, a psychopath with a thirst for fear, fixates on her, the emotional impact could be lethal.

Caught in a deadly trap, Jade must untangle the emotions and find a way to use her empathic curse to overcome this killer or be overcome by him.

Empath is now FREE on most sales channels.
