BLURB from Goodreads
To survive, their bond must be
unbreakable.
When the mysterious and passionate Rhane rescues Kali from an attacker in the theater parking lot, they form an immediate, smoldering connection. But Kali doesn't remember Rhane or anything from their past. As far as Kali knows, she's just a seventeen-year-old kid coping with an insatiable hunger for the “spark” or energy of others, feeding on classmates to survive.
A unique artifact—one that may hold the key to returning Kali’s memories—is uncovered by the archaeology firm where she works part-time, sending Kali and Rhane on a dangerous journey that leads them to the Forbidden City, into the unforgiving Gobi, and into the ruins of Rhane’s ancient homeland. As they fight for survival, Kali begins to discover who she really is and the true power she possesses.
But Rhane still harbors a secret that could destroy Kali…unless old enemies kill her first.

Dark Siren Excerpt: Rhane
Outside was the most gorgeous pizza
delivery guy she had ever seen. His eyes were an unworldly shade of green that peered
right through her, appearing to glow from within. He was dressed simply, a
black t-shirt and dark denim jeans ending in a pair of worn but comfortable
looking boots. Kali suspected he spent a lot of time on trails or in the woods.
Discreetly nudging off the fuzzy socks,
she opened the door wide. It was his turn to stare breathlessly. Kali was glad
she hadn’t changed. “Don’t I know you?” She tapered her voice to make it sound
less accusing, “You were at the theater last night.”
He nodded slowly. “Do you remember what
happened?”
Kali shook her head. “Only bits and
pieces. There was a man…” she stopped mid-sentence and shoved back the blur of
jumbled memories trying to rush forward. She refused to relive those terrifying
moments. Kali swallowed. “Thank you for helping me…and for bringing me home
last night.”
“I’m sorry I didn’t get there sooner.”
“No.” She lowered eyes and then lifted
them again shyly. “You were great.”
The stranger responded to her praise with a
slow smile. Kali would have recognized that smile anywhere.
He held the pizza box up higher. “May I
come in?”
She glanced over her shoulder and turned
back to him. “S-sure,” she stammered and barely remembered to step back so he
could enter the house.
Kali couldn’t stop watching him. She
gave herself a mental slap. Of course, the stranger was really so very hot, but
she had always been cool and collected when it came to boys. She was mesmerized
and didn’t understand why. Maybe it was because this was a man. And there was
something enthralling in the way he carried himself. Glamour and the most
tedious grooming couldn’t hold a candle to the confident air that surrounded
him. He was a different kind of predator, one she wanted to hunt.
Kali’s pulse fluttered erratically. She
didn’t move as he took a few steps into the living room.
He turned to her expectantly. “Would you
like this in the kitchen?” He gestured with the box.
“Uh, yeah, let me get that.” She took
the pizza from him and found her voice again. “So I know two things about you.
You’re a fan of scary movies and you deliver pizza for a living.”
He chuckled softly. “No.”
Not much of a talker. She lifted an
eyebrow. “No to one or both?”
“Both. The delivery boy had just arrived
when I got here. So I grabbed the pizza for you. I paid him of course and
tipped. As for the films…” He scanned the room, taking in every detail and
design. His piercing appraisal settled onto her again. “I’ve seen and
experienced things far more frightening than any contrivance of the human
mind.”
Unable to bear another second under his
unflinching gaze, Kali escaped into the kitchen with the pizza, setting it down
on the counter. Get it together, Kali. He’s only another guy. With a deep,
motivating breath she spun to return to the living room and almost jumped over
the counter. He had moved without making a sound and stood only inches behind
her.
“I didn’t mean to scare you.” He was
eerily still. His peculiar eyes watched her as if they saw everything.
Kali slid her gaze away. “You didn’t,”
she said, but her heart disagreed. It was trying to pound out of her chest. His
heat was affecting her. Brain getting foggy again, Kali saw his eyes flash. And
for a split second, the stranger seemed to be fighting against something very
primal, restrained under a fragile veil of calm. Then his features relaxed and
she thought she had imagined it.
