Scream of the Falcon

Amid a global pandemic, love can be the most healing—or destructive—force of all.
Ben Horowitz's life is already unraveling during the break of the COVID-19 pandemic. He's a recently divorced, uninspired psychotherapist with an estranged father and a personal life in turmoil. But on the eve of the virus's arrival in New York City, where he lives, Horowitz pays a rare visit to his father. That's when he meets Amy, his father's beautiful and enigmatic home health-care aide. She's got a troubled past and dreams of writing novels, and soon the chemistry between them ignites a passionate—and dangerous—attraction. What begins as harmless flirting quickly spirals into a dark romance fueled by jealousy, alcohol, a past relationship, and betrayals. They become entangled in a web of desire they can't escape, and the stakes only grow higher as the city spirals into chaos. With a world on the brink of collapse, will their love save or lead them down a path of destruction? This suspenseful romance novel explores love's dual nature—its power to heal or tear apart everything in its wake. Can love survive the pandemic? Or will it, like the virus, destroy them both?
