Dear loyal/sexy reader(s).

My hatred of flight (Damn you, creatures of the air!) may have colored my last post. Possibly.

After we got through the whole security/plane/itchy blanket/making out part, Hawaii and California weren't so bad. In fact... You could say I enjoyed myself.

Or maybe I ate too many pennies and now I'm delirious.

I bought a lot of clothes in any case. Something about Hawaii compels you to spend money. Maybe it's all the heat Hawaiians pack. Didn't know that, did you? Can't walk five feet without being asked to hold/try out/stroke/fire some stranger's gun. Hmm. Something about that seems fishy to me now.

In other news, Nemo and Crush have been captured, killed, and conveniently packaged.

Happy Holidays!

P.S. Tiny relations apparently do not equate to tiny living spaces.

About the Book

There are people with abilities they shouldn't have. Abilities that should not be possible. A man who can transform into a tiger, apple core eyes, and orange, black stripes, burning. A woman with metal fingers instead of flesh, scalpel-like. They are called Caps.

Kallie is a Cap. She's stronger than anyone she's ever known, and she aches to be the hero she could be. When the man who maimed her years ago is broken out of his padded cell, she knows he will find her again. She can regenerate, but John Doe plucked the fingers from her hand and swallowed each one. He took too much. She can already feel the phantom crawl of his tongue, and she will kill him before he tastes her for the last time.

Danny's the reason John Doe is free, and he did it because his boyfriend, Marcus, told him to. He does whatever Marcus tells him to because Marcus can see the future as well as he can the present, and right now his apple core eyes are fixed on the source of their abilities. Convinced the answer's in their blood, Marcus pegs John Doe as just the Cap to section and study. His abilities will keep his blood flowing long after his veins should have dried.

During the break out, Marcus is severely wounded, John Doe escapes, and Danny finds himself shouldering a plan he doesn't even understand. He still trusts Marcus, though, if nothing else, and knows of someone they could bleed instead. Someone Danny's only fought once before. She could regenerate like John Doe. He downs another vodka shot and tries to remember her name. And then it comes to him:

Kallie.
