Navigating a shadowy world she
never knew existed; Sabrina fights for her new found love...and her life........
***************************************************
This story is about Sabrina and Isaac or is it Ethan? (You'll understand when you read the book *wink*) .......From the moment I read the first line I was hooked.
Sabrina had just recently moved to England, the house she bought just felt right, like it was meant to be hers but she couldn't understand why. Within the first couple days, she mets the man of her dreams and I mean literally met the man IN her dreams. There's interesting turn of events that keeps you turning the page. It has great characters and a mixture of contemporary romance, suspense, action, and sadness. I couldn't wait to see how the story was going to end. I hope there will be other books that follow this one...Fantastic story Ms. Alberts :)

Excerpt
A strange stillness sat in the air outside Sabrina’s house. No trees
swayed in the breeze, no animals scampered in the forest, as if the
world itself had come to a halt.
Uneasiness rolled over her, and she studied Isaac out of the corner
of her eye. Surprisingly, he seemed to be as tense as her. He gripped
her arm tighter than necessary, and his lips were pressed together as
well. She could feel the tension pulsating off his body, and she got
taken back into her dreams. For the first time in real life, he made her
shiver in apprehension. As if sensing her fear, he shot her a quick
grin.
“Well, I had a lovely evening.” He spoke over his shoulder as he
practically dragged her to the door. She stumbled in an attempt to keep
up with his pace. At the door he pointedly stared at her, causing her to
realize he waited for her to open it. She fumbled through the mess she
called a purse to find the key. She turned to him and smiled as she
studied him through the cover of her eyelashes.
“Would you like to come in for a nightcap? I have wine…or coffee…or tea, or….” She stuttered to a stop, unsure of what to say.
God, she sounded like such an idiot.
Nightcap?
Who the heck said nightcap anymore?
“While I’d love to take you up on that offer, I have something I have
to take care of tonight. Could I get a rain check? For say,tomorrow
night? We could do a movie and wine? Or is tomorrow too soon in the
dating world?”
“No, not too soon at all. I’d love to see you tomorrow.”She tried to
hide her disappointment behind a bright smile. “You can call me,and
we’ll firm up a time. Good night.”
She turned to go inside and got caught off-guard when he grabbed her
elbow and spun her to face him. It happened so quickly she leaned back
against the door in confusion; one hand on the doorknob and the other
braced against the cool steel of the door. He moved his body closer to
hers and placed his hand at her head. His other hand cupped her cheek
while his thumb stroked her jaw line. All thought fled as his body
pressed against hers, and a small swoosh of air escaped her lips at his
touch.
“I didn’t think it even possible for you to grow more beautiful, but
you have proven me wrong.” When his lips met hers, she lost all thought,
all ability to move. She’d somehow been tied to this spot—this man.
