Frost Line

A brand new romantic suspense from bestselling authors Linda Howard and Linda Jones.

When seven-year-old Elijah witnesses his mother's murder, he runs for safety. Finding sanctuary in a neighbor's house, he stumbles across a deck of Tarot cards, accidentally freeing Lenna, the ancient essence of strength, and creating a bridge between the spirit worlds.

Lenna has lived her entire life in an alternate universe-one that is home to the manifestations of the Major Arcana cards. But when she finds herself pulled into the human realm and thrust into the role of protector, everything she thought she knew changes. Faced with the task of saving a young boy, Lenna knows she'll do whatever it takes to protect Elijah. Assistance is futile, especially in the form of a sexy mercenary. She'll trust Caine-over her dead body.

As a Hunter for magical beings, it's Caine's job to eliminate Lenna or return her to where she came from-to fail would mean the complete destruction of her world. Caine can't deny his growing feelings for the feisty woman, but none of it matters if the clock runs out. If she refuses his assistance...he'll have no choice but to kill her.
