Playing With Death - Paperback

by Odessa Savage (Author)

Prepare for a pulsating blend of suspense and romance in this gripping novel, where love faces its ultimate test against the backdrop of unspeakable darkness.

In the aftermath of his wife Deirdre's devastating betrayal, detective Soren Keene has buried himself in his work, trying to numb the pain of loss and betrayal. Three years later, he's assigned to the most notorious case of his career: tracking the sadistic serial killer known as the "Rorschach Reaper." The only survivor of the Reaper's gruesome onslaught, Velora Weston, becomes Soren's only lead-and the key to unraveling the killer's dark games.
Forced into the guise of a protective boyfriend, Soren finds himself thrust into an intimate game with Velora. As they spend the days growing closer, he grapples with a torrent of emotions he never anticipated. Velora's fierce spirit and haunting allure awaken primal urges deep within him, igniting a passion that draws him in like a moth to pyre.
But when Velora is suddenly abducted by the Reaper, Soren's world is turned upside down. Racing against the clock, he must delve into a nightmarish challenge orchestrated by the killer, navigating a shadowy labyrinth of manipulation and terror. Each decision could mean life or death-for Velora and for Soren's soul.
In this harrowing race against time, Soren must confront not only the monster lurking in the shadows but also his own dark desires for the enigmatic woman who captured his heart. Will he find the strength to save Velora and embrace the feral instincts she has awakened within him, or will he be too late to rescue her -and possibly the remnants of his own humanity?
