She plays by the rules and always delivers justice, no matter the cost.

His search for the truth draws him into greater danger as he gets closer to the dark realm of the immortals-and to the sexy werewolf who stirs his primal lust. Now with evil closing in around them, Dante must convince Tori to trust him . . . before her deadly secret destroys them both.Review"Tori is a terrific individual torn between the two most important people in her life...Readers will appreciate the fascinating Garner mythos."
