Willow Armitage’s world is falling apart; between getting fired and caring for her chronically ill father, she’s had little room for anything but survival. But that survival hangs in the balance the night she stumbles into a back alley—and watches a stranger die at the hands of the most beautiful man she’s ever seen. Lethal. Powerful. Unstable. Terrifying. The contract killer known only as Priest is a dangerous unknown, and when Willow wakes tied to a chair in his hideout, the only thing she sees in his fox-gold eyes is death. Yet for Priest, Willow is a dilemma: an innocent, a saint among the sinners he cuts down in the streets of Crow City…and a woman he desires far more than he should.

SHATTERPROOF

Love only cures everything in fairy tales.
goodreads.com/book/show/30306399-shatterproof
Praise from Publishers Weekly: “Sanders gracefully handles the loaded subject of suicidal depression in this tale of life, death, and love in present-day Savannah, Ga. […] Cathartic and pleasurable.”
Grey Jean-Marcelin wants to die. He thought painting his passion—vivid portrayals of Haitian life and vodou faith—would be enough to anchor him to this world…but it isn’t. And when the mysterious man known only as Saint saves Grey from a suicide attempt, it’s more curse than blessing—until Grey discovers that Saint isn’t just an EMT. He’s a banished fae, and can only survive by draining the lives of everyone he cares for. At first they seem the solution to each other’s desires, until this game of life or death becomes a game of star-crossed love. If one would live, the other must die—and as love and death intertwine, they’ll discover…no one’s heart is shatterproof.
