Capturing the Devil (Stalking Jack the Ripper, #4)

by Kerri Maniscalco

“Beware of trusting beautiful creatures. They hide the most wicked surprises.”

Now I’d seen enough of the world to know sometimes in order to fight darkness, you had to become a blade forged of heavenly fire.

I’d fought so hard against falling for him, never realizing I’d already been laid out on the ground, staring up into my future.

There’s a devil in us all as much as an angel. Right now, which one is speaking to you?”

Life distilled into two all-consuming elements: pain and light.

He and I were two stars in the same constellation, destined to shine brightly together each night of forever.
