As an Advocate for his colony, Julian Sawyer travels to Earth to bring back the Chosen—women who possess energy potent enough to help revitalize his people. The stunning, silver-clad beauty who strides into his club one night radiates a sensual magnetism unlike any he’s encountered, and Julian realizes that Asia Callahan is not just Chosen, she is his kindra: his one true mate.

For months, Asia has tracked the beautiful and mysterious Julian across the country, convinced that he’s behind the disappearance of her sister and a dozen other women. She’s prepared to believe he’s a ruthless killer, but when she presents herself as bait, she discovers that the truth is far more shocking. Taken to a strange, hazardous realm she never knew existed, Asia will face the ultimate choice—between abandoning the life she’s always known, and forsaking a passion as dangerous as it is powerful.

Dynamic characters in an intriguing world kick off a new paranormal romance series from bestseller Frank (the Shadowdweller series). Bounty hunter Asia Callahan suspects magnetic Julian Sawyer is a serial killer and knows he’s responsible for her sister’s disappearance. Julian is a telepathic Gatherer determined to keep Asia from jeopardizing his mission: recruiting Earth women whose energy can save his society. Asia finds herself marooned on a different plane of existence, facing unimagined dangers from Julian’s enemies and her own in an environment that can kill without warning. Unflinching, kick-ass characters bent on dominating each other, Asia and Julian are in constant combat, though Julian claims they’re destined to be mates. The stakes in their explosive conflict threaten disaster for them and both their worlds. Frank’s world-building is exceptional, and the fast-paced plot never lets up.
Summary: Following her sister’s disappearance, Asia Callahan tracks the man she believes responsible. As 13 women have disappeared after being seen with the mysterious Julian, Asia suspects he’s a serial killer. By setting herself up as a target, Asia hopes to get answers – but the truth is not what she expects. Julian is a gatherer from another dimension, sent to bring women with certain energy patterns back to his starving world. The sexual energy generated by these women helps save his people. Julian is stunned when he realizes he has been stalked and that this feisty human may be something almost unheard of – his kindra, AKA his one true mate. - Jill M. Smith

About the Author/作者介绍： Jacquelyn Frank is currently living in North Carolina, and has been writing romantic fiction ever since she picked up her first teen romance at age 13. With four sisters and other family scattered up and down the Eastern Seaboard, and a history of living all across the USA herself, she still always finds ways to give a nod to her native New York in her work. Jacquelyn lives with a precocious seven-year-old girl and her four “children,” a quartet of male domestic shorthaired cats whose personalities have often inspired aspects of her characters. A former Sign Language Interpreter and substitute teacher, she is a powerful advocate of reading and writing. She is known for her persistent gifts of books to her nieces and nephews, as well as all the other children in her life, in an effort to see them love both as much as she does. She believes there is nothing more rewarding than the imagination and all it inspires, and nothing more tragic than illiteracy.
