Cherry Adair

Romance Paranormal | Romance Suspense

As an operative in the T-FLAC paranormal unit, Simon Blackthorne is in Africa at the request of his old college friend and current president of Mallaruza, Abi Bongani. Mallaruza is in a state of crisis as civilians are caught between rebels, government forces and armed bandits. In addition, there is a virus spreading rampantly through the country with thousands of people dying every day. There is no known cure as it is a strain of an unknown disease no doctors or health professionals have ever seen before. Abi has asked Simon to help him track down the tango wizard responsible for the pillage, murders, rape and death of his people.

Abi is currently running for re-election and has hired Kess Goodall as his publicist. Due to her own private hell back in her hometown of Atlanta, Kess has opted for a time-out here in Africa. She never imagined she would meet a man as fascinating and irresistible as Simon Blackthorne.

Among Simon's wizard powers is the ability to teleport. He also has the capability to see 360ΒΊ and has an alter-ego who can materialize at any time. But, presently, his powers are malfunctioning and a wizard without power is...NOT a wizard. And that scares the hell out of him.

Simon and Kess are working together to unravel the mystery of this deadly plague along with battling the sadistic enemy wizard wreaking havoc on this tiny country. But this strong-willed and inspirational woman, with hair the color of fire, has Simon's heart working double time. She is nothing like he pictured his perfect woman would be, but the pull is too strong to ignore. And this tall, handsome, intriguing man has Kess imagining a future she never thought possible. As they forge a bond strong enough to fight this paranormal terrorist, Simon and Kess never dreamed this bond has brought them together for another change -- their love for each other.

NIGHT FALL sizzles to new heights as Cherry Adair gifts us with the first installment of her new paranormal romantic suspense trilogy. It is adrenaline-pumping, edge- of-your-seat action and singe-the-pages sexy, as we have come to expect and love from this author. It's suspense from start to finish. You don't want to miss this one.

SUMMARY

T-FLAC/psi operative Simon Blackthorne goes to Africa to continue the global war against paranormal terror–never expecting to clash swords with strong-willed Kess Goodall.

Kess struggles in her own desperate battle to unravel a deadly secret that has killed millions in the tiny country of Mallaruza. But Simon proves to be the ultimate distraction: his very presence takes her body to the edge of a pleasure-filled abyss, his touch superbly rapturous. Now, against a backdrop of staggering beauty and horrific violence, with danger at every turn and libidos in overdrive, a spirited woman and an indomitable wizard face a malevolent force more frightening than both can imagine.

With foes strong and numerous, Kess and Simon must forge a bond strong enough to eliminate a sadistic enemy before Mallaruza is lost to terrorist control and the world forever changed.
