What's a woman to do when the men around her won't listen to reason, spend all their time plotting to kill one another, take over the world and possess her? She steps up and sets her own plan into motion. Morgan and Cord just can't seem to find their way back to one another, or even to making a lasting peace. She still harbors resentment over him cheating on her, and over finding him in bed with yet another redhead when she sought him out while Victor was recuperating from the injury suffered at Cord's hands. He can't stand the idea that Morgan actually cares for Victor, and doesn't want to try and understand it. Cord's all about trying to destroy Victor and is teaming up with Roger Stork and an unlikely Russian ally in the attempt. He'll kill Victor if he can, and then he'll get Morgan back, just like he wants. Victor is oblivious to what either Cord or Morgan feel. He's glorying in the power he thinks he's gained from the Joining, and is focused on his plan for world domination, putting an end to Cord Alexander and having Morgan all to himself.Is it any wonder that Morgan has to draw on the power she now realizes she possesses as one of the Others, the race of beings from another realm? She has one ally, a man Cord knew as Slats, who is not at all who or what he seems, but the one person who can help her foil the plots of both men who desire her.She just hopes she can keep them from killing one another while she sets her world to right.** If you are a fan of ongoing tales like the The Sookie Stackhouse or Midnight Texas series by Charlaine Harris, or The Children of the Gods, paranormal romance series by I.T. Lucas, then THIS is the series for you.In a world where no one is what they appear to be, where reality is a construct invented to make us feel safe, they know the truth. Gods and monsters are real and they are here.
