Kissing Shadows

“Come home with me.” At that, Kiss tilts her head back to look at him, startled. Zane gazes back at her—and there it is again, that rawness from those days they spent together, that honesty, that realness that was never part of the game they were playing back then. Their emotions, at least, had been true. But she has changed. Kiss has left. Zane thought he would no longer know loneliness—but he was wrong, and now he roams the earth kissing monsters into angels. Being a Gifted One, humans no longer recoil from him but instead are drawn to him like moths to a flame, begging for a touch of his lips; yet with every touch, all that he’s kissing are shadows. He wants Kiss back. He craves her love. But she has changed. As he discovers the truth about her, Zane sets out to find a way to tame the beast in her heart, so he can once again claim her kisses—without turning her into an angel. Yet as both monsters and angels try to come between them, Zane and Kiss have to make a choice: To give up on each other. Or to fight instead.
