This book happened because people asked me questions. I’ve blogged about that somewhere or other… I think Smexy Books is one of the places. You can read about it tomorrow. ( I think…?)
But in short, this book happened because people kept asking about Taylor.
He was a guy who wasn’t ever going to have a story. Because I didn’t like him. I met him in THE MISSING and that should have been the end of him until Jillian’s story. Yes, I do plan on telling one for her.
He’s a jerk. To be blunt…I just saw him as an asshole. A cold, unfeeling asshole.
But other people wanted to know why he was the way he was. And after you get asked why so many times, well…at least for me, it made me wonder.
And once I started to wonder?
Well…there’s a story. If you want to know it, though, you’ll have to read it…and it’s out today.
A LIFELONG OBSESSION
FBI Special Agent Taylor Jones has made it his mission to save those in harm’s way by any means necessary—including employing psychic agents like Desiree “Dez” Lincoln, who can communicate with the disembodied spirits of the dead. Taylor is haunted by his own ghost, his kid sister, gone missing at age six. For a quarter of a century he has been tortured by her loss and the mystery of her disappearance.
A NIGHT’S INDISCRETION
When Dez is seriously wounded, Taylor can no longer hide his feelings for her. Getting involved could spell disaster for both of them—not to mention those who rely on them for help—but once Dez lays her hands on him, he can’t resist the fierce attraction. But after giving in to his desires, Taylor pulls back, and Dez strikes out on her own.
AN INESCAPABLE PASSION
Responding to the call of another anguished spirit, Dez is led to Taylor’s old hometown. As the two are forced to come together to save a girl in peril, Dez may be able to help Taylor finally find the answers he’s been looking for…

*raising juice* Happy release day, Shiloh! (and my copy is on its way to me–yessssssssssssss, come to me, my precioussssssssssss)
Happy Book Birthday! Thank you for the background on The Departed.
Hello Shiloh,
Well my Nook let me have it at 12:35AM but I had to come to work this morning so I decided to only read 3 chapters (very dumb move on my part). The Departed was absolutely fabulous, I enjoyed it tremendously but now I am at work very tired.
It was worth it 🙂 Thanks for that story it was an adventure.
Ah…did you stay up all night reading????
Enjoyed the blog…it’s always interesting to me where authors get their ideas for stories…this one was there all along just waiting for you to write. Have a great year.
Happy Release Day, Shiloh.
Congrats on the release! It really sounds great!

Happy release day Shiloh! I love the premise of this story. Tortured heroes make the best heroes in my opinion. I love suspense and this book sounds like it has plenty of it.
I read the excerpt of The Departed. I love the the story already. I need to pick up a copy as soon as the book gets release.
I really loved this book and the first. I’d really like it if you’d add some stories on the team that works with Taylor. I’m really hooked, please keep them coming.
