Angels and Outlaws

“I’m saying I’m ready for whatever the future brings. With you, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Sam kissed her again and Cass grabbed hold of her happily-ever-after with both hands.
“I love you, Sam,” she whispered. “I love you, I love you, I love you.”
And in dedicating herself to one path, one cake, one man, her life was made whole.
IN A LAVISH VILLA in the south of France, high on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, an obsession grew. A dark dangerous obsession that promised to ruin all who came in contact with it.
He must have the White Star at all costs. She was the only thing that could save him. Without her, he was cursed forever.
And with her, his life would be transformed.
Where was that miserable Jean Allard? He cursed the day he’d hired that worthless thief. Two weeks he’d been waiting. Two weeks since Allard had called and told him he’d successfully taken the White Star from the Zoey Zander collection at the Stanhope auction house.
But then not another word.
He paced his elaborate study decorated in marble and leather and cherry wood and rare books. He had everything in the world except what he wanted most.
He paced and he drank expensive whiskey and he cursed and lived his dark secret. The secret no one could ever know. The secret only the White Star could cure.
He had to have the amulet.
Time was running out.
Something had to be done. He would get her, no matter what the cost, and if anyone got in his way, he would kill them.
