    About this ebook

    - “I’m sorry Gracie.”
    “Sorry for what? What are you doing?” I hold my hands up to ward him off as he comes closer. “Stay away from me.” Oh god, this is it. There will be no witnesses to my murder; they’ll only find my body parts strewn across the park. I open my mouth to scream, but his hand clamps over it, stopping me. Tears well up in my eyes and a sob escapes my covered lips. I don’t want to die, I’m not ready yet. He presses in, smothering me. Everything suddenly becomes dark, as if I've been swallowed by shadows.-

    When she is taken against her will and held captive, Gracie Martin must find a way to escape, but not just from anywhere... from the Underworld of Greek Myth. Can she succeed against all odds, in a terrifying, mythical world, to find her way back to the man she loves? The REAPER is here...
    This is PART 1 of a series.

      PART 1

      I lean up against the cold brick wall of the locker room and stare off into space. Tonight’s the night. Brendan has made a reservation at a restaurant across town after his game. He's going to propose, I can feel it. I'm so excited I can’t even think straight. I tap my foot against the cement impatiently.

      I'm so engrossed in my thoughts, I don’t notice Brendan standing in front of me until his lips touch mine and his fingers weave into my loose hair. He pulls away with a knowing grin and leans down once more to kiss me on the nose.

      Ready to go? I nod enthusiastically and practically skip to the car like a small child. He opens the passenger side door and motions for me to hop in.

      We pull out of the dark parking lot and cruise down the highway back into the city at an alarming pace. I guess he’s as excited as I am. I grip the edge of the seat as he turns a corner too quickly and steers us towards a large
