Nora Grey’s orderly existence is thrown into upheaval when her new bio partner, a sexy transfer student named Patch, begins stalking her. Alternately frightened by and attracted to Patch, Nora can’t get him out of her life or her mind. As strange things occur and attempts are made on her life, Nora has to decide if Patch is the threat she suspects him to be, even as other suspects surface. But can she survive being a pawn in a game between fallen angels? Awkwardly poised between romantic and disturbing, the mystery-laden plot and atmospheric setting make this a strong, if not spectacular, debut for the author, who shows a lot of potential.
