SHE'S BEEN TAKEN. HE'S GOT HOURS LEFT TO LIVE. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO SAVING THE WOMAN YOU LOVE, WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR MORE TIME?
Mr. Rook, eccentric billionaire and owner of the most exclusive island resort in the world, has a secret. Hint:Legends say it can make you young again.
But when he's no longer willing to pay the dark price to keep eternal youth on the island's menu, the very thing that once kept him young is now turning on him.
With only hours left to live, the woman he loves is taken by the worst kind of man this world has to offer. Turns out she's been keeping dark secrets of her own, and getting her back won't be as simple as writing a check.
What happens next will force him to break every vow he's ever made, betray his heart, and leave her doubting him forever.
The phone rang, and I felt my pulse rate soar. My body was fighting and losing. Who is this? said a distinctive voice with a New York accent over the phone.
This is the man with the island. I spoke quietly, trying to conceal my shortness of breath. It wouldn’t do Stephanie any good to let this man know I was dying.
Well, well, Mr. Rook. Nice to finally meet you. You have something I want. I have something you want. There’s nothing nice about it.
From where I’m sitting, there are plenty of pleasantries to get excited about. Stephanie, for example, isn’t so bad on the eyes. In fact, most of my men agree.
Pig. If you touch her, you get nothing. Set her free, the island is yours. Today if she calls me and tells me she’s somewhere safe.
A sinister laugh poured through the phone. I only do deals like this in person. You come here. We talk. Then she goes free. I couldn’t do that. Not in this state. I’d die before I made it. I’ll send one of my people to— Uh-uh.
I don’t deal with no messenger boys. You come. And only you. You have one day, said Warner. I need more time, I sputtered out my words.
It sounds like what you need is inspiration. I’ll send Stephanie’s dad a finger or two by courier. Maybe that will convince you to make this a priority.
I drew a slow breath. That won’t be necessary. I will come. Looking forward to it. The call ended. Hell. I tilted my face toward the ceiling. I was right.
Warner is after this place. And I barely had the strength to walk, let alone make the three-hour flight to New York City. Even if I could, I was in no condition to face Warner.
For a brief moment, I considered sending Luke in my place. He could pretend to be me, but that was like sentencing him to death.
Warner was dangerous, and as physically tough as Luke was, I doubted Luke would know how to deal with a psychopath. What did he say? Grant asked, his voice frantic. Help me up. I held out my hand to Grant.
Where are you going? he asked. As I struggled to my feet, I felt my soul weeping. If I were a better man, a less selfish man, I would not do this.
I would not take this path. But when it came to this woman, I was weak, a sinner, a man who would do anything for her, including breaking every principle and belief I had. I am going for a swim.
