New Orleans is a city of Mystery and Beauty. For Synergy Emerson, it's the place she hopes to find answer. Discovering a world she never knew existed wasn't in her plans, but sometimes Fate has a plan of her own.
When she discovers new powers, she'll have to learn to control them while surviving the ones who want to use her for their gain.
With a bounty on her head, she'll have a hard time escaping the clutches of evil. Kanai Aeros is frustrated with his day to day routine. Being a supernatural cop was time consuming, leaving no time for a personal life.
When Synergy Emerson pulls into town and a bunch of dead bodies start showing up, he learns there is so much more to her and the community he's lived in all of his life than he ever imagined.
The supernatural community is about to get bigger and a lot deadlier.

Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books!
After her mother's murder, Synergy is introduced to a world she never knew existed. One that has a price on her head. One with the sexy police detective called Kanai, who may be the only one who can help her control her ever-growing powers. I'm not really sure I liked this book. And I can't really say why! It wasn't bad, just not great. It takes a while to get going, to warm up, with a lot of ground laying from people who don't really appear at all after this beginning and I did question why they had a say, and what they had to say too. There are, in my opinion and in my copy at least, far too many minor spelling mistakes, editing errors, and sentences that don't make much sense, for me not to mention it, and it did affect my reading of this book. And it ends on a cliff hanger. Which actually came at the point where I was starting to enjoy it! So there is more to come from Synergy and Kanai, from Syn's father and her newly found family. And from those who wish to harm Syn. BUT!!! Will I read it? I don't know. I really can't say at this moment in time, having just finished this one that I would want to. At a later date, maybe the answer will be different. 3 stars

* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book, and the comments here are my honest opinion. *


I currently live in Charleston, WV with my two beautiful children. I do work a full time job and I have a passion for writing. My only hobby is reading. I have been working on my first book for some time now, but I am finally making that leap. I have many stories that I want to put to paper and hopefully you all will follow me on my journey. I like to write whatever is on my mind but I like to explore with my writing. I like to have my books feel like your inside them as the actual characters. I like my characters to be strong. Sex is important between loving people therefore all my books contain graphic scenes but are not classified as erotica. The character's themselves have more basis.
