Synopsis

After losing her unborn baby at the hands of her abusive husband, Kendra Salvatori flees from him to Black Mountain, North Carolina. She collapses in the barn of Garth Fisher, who rescues Kendra from near-death and nurses her back to health. When Kendra is fully recovered, she insists on leaving, aware that her husband, Tony Salvatori, head of a small but very powerful criminal organization, will eventually locate her. Kendra and Garth are by this time in love with one another and Kendra is very fearful of what Tony will do to Garth if he finds her with him. Garth persuades Kendra to stay with him, convincing her that they are in a safe place that is not easily accessible. Because Kendra is so frightened of what will happen when her husband finds her, Garth and Kendra begin to prepare themselves mentally and physically for the battle they know they will eventually face."Compelling characters and a fine balance of romance and danger are this author's trademark. Chasing Demons is Christy Tillery French at her best."-Laurel Johnson, author of The Grass Dance and The Alley of Wishes"Christy Tillery French with tempered elegance creates a stir of emotions while seamlessly switching from one genre to another. Her vivid and silken writing ability is honeycombed with the magic of suspense, romance, mystery and high-grade entertainment."-Sherry Russell, author of Conquering the Mysteries and Lies of Grief

About this title

From the Author

"Chasing Demons" deals with a serious subject matter: domestic abuse. My goal was to portray one woman's struggle to become stronger mentally and physically in order to face her abusive husband and take a stand for herself and her freedom from him.

I have always loved the Black Mountains of North Carolina. My father was raised in the area, and as a child, each summer, I would spend time there with my grandmother. The area is rich in culture, with great charm and beautiful scenery. I was glad the opporunity this book presented to incorporate the Black Mountains range into a story.
