For nearly two centuries, Marcus
has been the Watchers' most faithful soldier. Sworn to
protect humanity, driven by an unrelenting compulsion to
atone for past sins, he has rarely found a compelling reason
to question his mission, let alone defy his leader.
His partner, Regan, is his exact opposite, an enigma he
longs to solve. A free spirit and reckless to a fault, Regan
acts first and thinks later. Her smart mouth and tender
heart have fascinated Marcus for decades, but the Watchers'
strict vow of celibacy has forced him to ignore the sizzling
attraction between them. Until now.
When Regan goes rogue to protect a very special little boy,
Marcus is forced to make an impossible choice—commit
an act of treason or watch the woman he secretly loves die.
On the run, hunted by enemies and allies alike, Regan and
Marcus fight to thwart an age-old prophecy and guard a boy
whose destiny may very well be to destroy the world...or
save it.
