I'd spent my whole life settling, trying not to attract attention, and generally doing whatever it took to keep other people happy. I didn't want to do that again. Not when I was finally comfortable in my own skin. Sure, there were certain challenges, like a drug lord who wanted me dead, and the fact that I owed a demon a debt that he could call due at any moment. But everybody's got problems, right? Whenever Corine Solomon touches an object, she immediately knows its history. But her own future concerns her more and more. Now back in Mexico, she's running her pawnshop and trying to get a handle on her strange new powers, for she might need them. And soon. Then former ally Kel Ferguson walks through her door. Heavily muscled and tattooed, Kel looks like a convict but calls himself a holy warrior.

Book Description:
A Halloween short
story from the Sentry of Evil world…
Working on a TV special about one of McCall, Idaho’s
legendary “haunted” hotels isn’t exactly how production assistant Alyssa Shaw
wants to spend her Halloween weekend. But when the hotel’s handsome caretaker finds
her outside at night, Alyssa forgets all about ghosts and her annoying boss.
Alec Bailey knows a thing or two about the supernatural
world and its dangers. When the local news crew shows up to do a piece on his hotel, he knows he should send them
away…especially with that unchecked demon lurking on the property perimeter. Supernatural
protocol dictates he call in Jacquelyn, McCall’s own demon hunter, but he isn’t
ready to say goodbye to the beautiful crew member who reminds of a time in his
life long past…
If Alec can’t keep Alyssa from the forest, she’s as good as
dead. When she ventures past the iron fence, Alec realizes that he’ll have to
defy supernatural law if he’s going to save her. And it may be that defiance,
this time, will save him right back…
