DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn extraordinary debut novel of love that survives the fires of hell and transcends the boundaries of time. On a burn ward, a man lies between living and dying, so disfigured that no one from his past life would even recognize him. His only comfort comes from imagining various inventive ways to end his misery. Then a woman named Marianne Engel walks into his hospital room, a wild-haired, schizophrenic sculptress on the lam from the psych ward upstairs, who insists that she knows him – that she has known him, in fact, for seven hundred years. She remembers vividly when they met, in another hospital ward at a convent in medieval Germany, when she was a nun and he was a wounded mercenary left to die. If he has forgotten this, he is not to worry: she will prove it to him. And so Marianne Engel begins to tell him their story, carving away his disbelief and slowly drawing him into the orbit and power of a word he'd never uttered: love.

Damned.One night ripped my life away and left me a monster-the scarred gargoyle of a man who lived in the stained-glass shadows of a crumbling cathedral, selling my soul in order to seek vengeance on those who destroyed my life.Until one day, the chimes I heard weren't from the bell tower of Notre Dame, but from the bejeweled gypsy invading my space. Though she swears her research is legitimate, her beauty shimmers with secrets. I can't trust glittering eyes that aren't repulsed by me, nor the tempting smile that is laden with lust. I can't trust her.So, I'll watch and wait... and ignore how her sharp wit and bewitching charm scorch the shackles of my restraint and enchant me into her fire. I'll uncover the truth before she gets too close. Before she sees the broken man beneath the scarred beast. And before I give into her temptation.She's a threat to everything I've worked for-a threat to my cathedral and a threat to my revenge.And, most dangerous of all, a threat to my stone cold heart.The Gargoyle and the Gypsy is the first book in the Sacred Duet.
