With Dreams of Payne

With Dreams of Payne

He isn€t real.<br /><br />The stranger with the seductive eyes.<br />The man whose phantom touch ignites me.<br />The guy I€ve seen in my dreams for years.<br /><br />But it turns out he does exist because he€s standing in the bar where I work, sexy and secretive in the flesh. And those mahogany eyes that are as familiar as my own?<br /><br />They€re haunted.<br />Rife with tragedy.<br />Dark with an agenda.<br /><br />It can€t be a coincidence he appeared when the killings started. Now my nights are full of visions I€d rather not see.<br /><br />Death and despair.<br />Victims and headlines.<br />A reality I can€t escape.<br /><br />My dream lover is determined to protect me, and I€m determined to save him from the demons of his past. Together, we might just heal each other€¦if fate and a serial killer don€t get to us first.
