In the final Shields tale, join New York Times bestselling author Donna Grant for a moving story of love and redemption. Regards Reader – There are those who would love to rid themselves of painful memories, to forget mistakes. And pasts. They say it’s hell to live with those memories. I say it’s hell to live without them. I have no recollections of my past, my friends, or family. I owe my life to the Fae who discovered me bleeding and near dead at their doorway. They saved me and offered me a new life. I’ve served the Fae and the Shields since that fateful day. My unique knowledge of herbs and healing has been needed to save the Shields countless times. They are my brethren, my family. Yet I am alone. No matter where I search or what questions I ask, I discover nothing to open a doorway in my mind of locked memories. Until I catch a glimpse of a woman who seems as familiar to me as breathing. Though Jayna claims to not know me, our bodies, our souls recognize the other. I agonize over what she keeps hidden in the depths of her haunted hazel eyes. I fear the dark thoughts that lurk in my heart and wonder at any black deeds of my past. If what I dread comes to pass, death will not come swift enough. Above all, I must keep Jayna safe. She is the only one that has quieted my soul and shown me serenity. Gabriel the Hollow
