'Soul Sucker' by Kate Pearce Super Book Blast!


Soul Sucker
by Kate Pearce

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

Supernatural Branch of Law Enforcement empath Ella Walsh sucks memories from people's heads. The job fills her mind with others' nightmares and leaves her with little time for love, but if she doesn't pair off with a mate of the government's choosing soon, the psychic blowback will destroy her powers and her sanity.

The last time shapeshifting SBLE superstar Vadim Morosov worked with an empath, he got her killed and himself assigned to a desk. He worries about taking on another partner, but helping Ella track down an empath killer might be his only chance to save his career.

Naturally, the government decides to throw them together.

They resist at first, but they can't deny the simmering heat between them. As the killer's strikes grow closer to home, their bond gets tighter. And when the murderer finally traps Ella, her developing link with Vadim might be the only thing that can save her.

EXCERPTS (Your exclusive excerpt is attached separately.):
Ella stopped walking and faced him. “Look, are you programmed to disagree with everything I say, or are you just totally obnoxious?”

Probably a little of both.”

Then get over it. I’m already tired of having to argue with you all day.”

You could try agreeing with me for a change.”

She started walking again. “Right. Like that’s going to happen. We’re obviously not meant to be best buddies, okay? So let’s do what Feehan said and try to get along at least on a professional level.”

You prefer to keep things professional?”

Of course.”

You don’t date your colleagues?”

Why, are you trying to summon up the courage to ask me out?”

He laughed, displaying a dimple near his chin. His blue eyes crinkled at the corners and he looked so damn sexy Ella almost wanted to smile back.

For the record, Morosov, I don’t date.”

Why not?”

Because...” She glared at him. “I don’t owe you an explanation, do I?”

Not yet.”

Wow, you really are over-confident.”

Not at all. As your colleague, I’m just concerned about your well-being.”

I have men, I don’t date them.”

He nodded. “So you’re afraid of commitment.”

My life will probably end at twenty-seven.” She looked up at him. “Would you subject someone you loved to that?”

Ella regretted the words the moment she said them. She didn’t want him feeling sorry for her.

He let out his breath. “Probably not.” He reached out and took her hand. “I apologize.”

She flinched as his magic shot through her. “I knew you weren’t quite human.”

He shrugged and released her hand. “I’m many things.”
