Prodigal Son—the new paranormal romance from
acclaimed historical romance author
Debra Mullins.
Bounty hunter Rafe Montana is a Seer, descended from
the fabled Atlanteans. He uses his inherited power to “see” criminals across
the globe and track them down, and he’s just started on a new case. Danny
Cangialosi is accused of disappearing with a stolen car…but for the first time
in his life, when Rafe goes looking, he is unable to “see” him. Instead, his
search leads him to Danny’s stubborn, meddling, and very cute stepsister, Cara McGaffigan.
Cara is looking for Danny, too, but not to turn him
in. He is her brother, after all, and she’s convinced he has a good
heart. If she can just find him before the cops do, she’ll figure out a way to
get him out of this. But Cara didn’t count on a scorching-hot bounty hunter
getting in her way.
Despite instant chemistry, Rafe and Cara know
they’re never going to see eye-to-eye when it comes to Danny. What they don’t
know is that Danny didn’t just steal a car—he stole a precious stone, a stone
right out of the legends of Atlantis. It holds powers they can only dream
of…and its owner wants it back.
