The Altered
Book 1: Deadly Mark

About the Book
A Slow Burn Paranormal Romance
When a nearly dead man is wheeled into Maxine Hart’s trauma bay, she recognizes his Mark, because she has one too. Max is brilliant under pressure, but she’s also different. Her hands can do more than save lives, and in the wrong system, that kind of ability becomes a liability. She can treat him like any other patient, keep her head down, and follow procedure—or she can do what she knows is right and put a target on her back.
Wolf Hunter doesn’t miss threats. A former Green Beret with powers few know about, he’s prepared for almost anything. He’s not prepared for a surgeon with quiet fire within her, or for the way being near her wakes something in him he keeps locked down. People with the Mark are being hunted, and the closer Wolf and Max get to the truth, the smaller their margin for error becomes. And if Max and Wolf want to keep the patient alive, they’ll have to trust each other fast… because the closer they get, the more deadly the Mark becomes.
Deadly Mark is the first book in The Altered series. Each book features a different couple and can be read as a standalone, although readers may get more enjoyment from reading them in order. A slower burn, paranormal romance with psychic powers, a guaranteed happily ever after, strong language, and some sexy times. Enjoy!
