Publisher's Synopsis
The way he stood there. His angular features. Precise, interesting, sensual. Freakishly tall, with pale, unnerving eyes. He moved unlike anyone I'd ever seen. He also wasn't human.
Like most humans, Allie only glimpses Seers at a distance, usually in sex clubs, or on the leash of the wealthy and powerful of San Francisco. Fascinating, beautiful, deadly, Seers exist totally outside the sphere of ordinary people. You have to be rich to own a Seer. You have to be rich to get anywhere near one. Allie's more focused on getting her mom to a therapist, on keeping her friend, Cass, out of crap relationships, and making enough money so they don't lose the house. When Revik shows up at her work, she assumes he's just some eccentric, another weirdo with an odd fixation on her. But in Revik's world, dark, terrorist Seers run everything, and now they're targeting Allie. Revik tells her Seers believe she will free their people from enslavement. They believe she will kill all the humans. They believe she will destroy the world. Now she's on the run, the police have her family and friends, and the only person left is a hot but surly Seer with seriously terrible communication skills and a frightening ability with a gun. She has to find a way out. She has to keep her family safe. Revik is all she's got.* Psychic suspense. Apocalyptic. The first chapter in an epic, soul-crushing, world-spanning romance that can get dark, dark, dark... but also contains a lot of light. Slow burn. Fated Mates. Enemies to lovers. Forced marriage. Rejected mates. Every book ends on a completed arc. **NOTE: A different version of this novel was previously titled "Rook" (same series name) THE BRIDGE AND SWORD SERIES is a dark, gritty psychic warfare romance, from a USA TODAY and WALL STREET JOURNAL bestselling author. Set in an alternate version of Earth where a second race of beings called "Seers" live alongside humans, this is for fans of romantic, character-driven science fiction and fantasy worlds, filled with twists and turns and backstabbing betrayals, with heroes and villains who are often the same people.
