She can run, but he won't let her go without a fight. Three years ago, Clemant Taylor left Blue Island to escape her secret obsession with Wade Tawes, the son of her clan's greatest enemy. But when the head of her family becomes ill, she is forced to return to Blue-at the risk of succumbing once more to Wade's irresistible sexual lure. Promising herself she won't be enticed again into having mind-blowing sex with him, she vows to focus only on stopping the escalating violence between their clans and the collapse of the island's way of life. Wade Tawes, now the head of a family that has long sworn to seek retribution against the Taylors, is stuck between loyalty to his clan and his love for Clemant. He doesn't know how he'll do it, but he plans to force his family to accept his choice, after he finds out who's really behind the vandalism that is ripping the island apart. And after he convinces Clemant that she really does love him. But the feud heats up, blood is spilled, and pressure for revenge mounts on both sides. Wade and Clemant must find a way to heal the rift between their clans-or their world will implode, leaving them both empty and alone. Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, and a bone-chilling mystery.
