<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When the Thrall Queen Wants You ... Run! In the ER after a minor traffic accident, Kate Reilly is attacked by Monica Micah, the Queen of Denver, Colorado's Thrall population, The Thrall -- vampire parasites -- have been preying on humans for thousands of years, using us as both hosts and food. Kate killed a Thrall Queen and became Not Prey, so by the Thrall's own rules, Monica should be giving Kate a wide berth. Instead, Monica wants Kate dead. Eventually. First, she wants to force her to become the things she hates most in the world: a new Thrall Queen. Worse, though Monica broke the rules, Kate can't: if she hides or flees, she'll lost Not Prey status. Not that Kate thinks seriously about running away. Too many people rely on her in one way or another: the tenants in the apartment building she owns; her brothers; her ex-boyfriend and his seriously unpleasant wife; a missing sixteen-year-old girl Kate has promised to find before the Thrall do; and Tom, the handsome werewolf who just moved in downstairs. No. Kate's not going anywhere. Kate Reilly is Not Prey. She's going to fight.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Action, adventure, romance, and thrills--everything readers love from <i>USA Today</i> bestselling authors C.T.

People like Kate Reilly, whose latent psychic powers were activated by the vampire's venom when she was attacked a few years ago. Kate is Not Prey, and safe. <p/>Or is she? The Thrall Queen intends to make Kate her successor, despite Kate's hatred of the vampires. <p/>All is not bleak in Kate's world. Her downstairs neighbor, Tom, is a hunky firefighter who arouses her senses...including the ones that tell her he's not human. Tom's a werewolf--and his pack knows how to protect Kate from the Thrall Queen. The problem? The last time Kate trusted a man she loved, he betrayed her to the Thrall and nearly got her killed. <p/>Action, adventure, romance, and thrills--everything readers want from the <i>USA Today</i> bestselling authors who are also Cat Adams, creator of the Blood Singer series--are all on display in <i>Touch of Evil.</i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Riveting plot twists...[the authors] don't stint on the romance that builds between the sexy Tom and the Laura Croft-like Kate, making this an outstanding paranormal romance." --<i>Booklist, starred review</i> <p/>"The brilliant team of Adams and Clamp craft an exceedingly intriguing heroine trying to survive a dangerous and complex world.
