Paramour

Her banshee scream is a death sentence. His love might be hers.

"You know that feeling people get when something bad is about to happen to someone they love? Or how some seem to know it's their time right before getting into a horrible accident? That's me. I warn that death is coming."

Sadie is a banshee on the run from hunters, from her past, and from the terrifying truth that she's killed before. As an empath, she's learned to shut her emotions down, because if she feels too much, she could easily turn lethal again.

There are no highs. No lows. No chance of losing control.

But when Sadie falls sick from a hunter's mysterious spell, she can no longer escape into the safety of other people's emotions. Now in a new town with a new identity, she's forced to feel everything. Grief. Rage. Longing. Fear. For the first time in her life, she makes friends, forging connections and breaking her careful rules for survival. And then there's Nathan - the human boy she's connected to by fate.

Falling for him may well be her undoing.

As hunters close in, Sadie must decide whether to let herself lose control-and risk everything that keeps her safe - all to protect those she never meant to love.
