What is Beltane?
Depending on your particular tradition, there are many different ways you can celebrate Beltane, but the focus is nearly always on fertility. It's the time when the earth mother opens up to the fertility god, and their union brings about healthy livestock, strong crops, and new life all around.
In Rescued from the Dark we have two people who welcome new life, but not without a lot of road blocks on their way.
This is a story about an FBI
agent, Jason Michaels who goes undercover with the Irish Mob to get information
on their gun smuggling ring. While on assignment he realizes they have joined
forces with a known terrorist group manufacturing drugs. He searches for
information to tie the two together when he finds out they have kidnapped a
fellow agent and the only girl he has ever loved. Jason soon realizes their
using Mercy to perfect their dosage and that his cover has been blown. He knows
he has to save her so takes off a
journey that will take him up against his enemies, peers and the Agency
that he loves, but willing to give up to bring Mercy back to him.
Blurb:
She has no memory of their love...
Kidnapped by terrorists and sent into a drug-induced coma, FBI
intern Mercedes Kingsley awakes with no memory of her ordeal—or the intimate
interlude that left her pregnant. Convinced her child was fathered by her
ex-fiancé, she walks away from the only man she has ever loved, determined to
make things work with her ex, a man the FBI suspects is implicated in her
abduction.
He knows the
truth, but no one will listen...
FBI undercover agent Jason Michaels remembers what Mercy can’t
and those memories are breaking his heart. Forced to keep his distance from his
lover and their unborn child, Jason risks his life to protect Mercy from a cell
of international terrorists who have vowed to get the secrets locked in her
memory, no matter the cost. Can Jason convince Mercy to trust him until she
remembers their past, or will he lose her to a man who will trap her in a
nightmare world of darkness from which there is no escape?
EXCERPT:
An explosion ricocheted behind Jason Michael’s eyes as the
pressure mounted in his head. The rush of panic consumed him. He struggled to
move, tried to swallow, but nothing. His throat burned as the flames engulfed
his lungs. He needed to breathe but couldn’t. Shit. He strained to make out the
muffled voice, but the pounding in his ears erased all hope. His head started
to spin and he succumbed to the realization, this was it, the end. He won. The
flames dampened and his heartbeat slowed as the drums subsided, then the voice
became clear.
“Give it to him now you son of a bitch. What were you thinking?
We still need him.”
In a split second, Jason sucked in a breath, causing stabbing
pains to shoot through his chest. Every muscle fiber burned as the cold blast
of air shot through his lungs releasing the oxygen his body craved. He arched
his back, raising his chest up to pull in more air when his head snapped to the
side and the crack from his neck echoed in his ears. The pain ripped through
his jaw, racing across his cheekbone. Before he could gather his senses,
intense burning set his face on fire. What the hell?
The slap against his cheek stung, and his eyes snapped open. He
wrenched upright, hitting his head on the roof of the SUV. His gaze darted back
and forth looking for something familiar until he locked onto the ice-cold
stare of the devil himself, Shaun Flanagan.
Damn, that was close. Jason could not blow his cover, even if it
meant he would die as David Logan and not Jason Michaels.
“You’re finally awake, my boy. We almost lost you,” Shaun cold,
emotionless laugh caused Jason’s blood to boil. “You stopped breathing, I
think. It’s hard to tell with this new stuff. I hope you’re not too injured.
We’ve got work to do.”
Jason’s vision blurred, but his other senses were sharp. Shaun
had known exactly what the drug would do and the burn in Jason’s throat was a
harsh reminder. Shaun’s sarcastic tone spoke volumes to him. He was evil and
did not play by anyone’s rules but his own. Jason had spent the last two months
undercover, playing their games and doing their dirty work to buddy up tight to
this family. He’d earned his spot with Thomas Flanagan, but his son Shaun had issues
trusting anyone, even his own father.
Jason’s anger burned inside of him, but he couldn’t afford to
make mistakes, not now. He was too close. It’s time to step it up, but first
the drugs had to stop. He rubbed his aching jaw with one hand, clenching his
other into a fist to hide his visible shaking. He had to get control of this
game before he lost everything.
