Genre - Romance, Suspense


Intriguing storyline with a few twists and is a book you can’t put down.

Lizette Henry wakes up one morning and wonders who she is. First she is jolted with a blinding headache and then very sick. Each time she starts to think, her illness progresses. She does not recognize herself in the mirror, and upon looking at her hairline and faceline she finds tiny scarring.


Who is she and what is her past. She can only recall 3 years ago and has lost 2 years of her life. Lizette works out if she thinks too much, then this ‘illness’ advances; she is able to control after a time and feels she is being watched. Deep inside she knows she is not the woman in the mirror.

Suddenly, events come to her which she finds herself being ‘hunted’ and has to leave everything behind. Nowhere to go and wondering how she is still been followed. She bumps into a ‘hunk’ of a man who leaves her weak-kneed at the pharmacist where she is getting urgent supplies, and unbeknown to her, this man as she knows as X is in fact trying to protect her. From whom and where can she go? On the run until the very end with more than one person after her life and that of X who is called Xavier.
