Extended description

A stolen antique mask. A serial killer. A female shape shifter forced to wear the faces men’s desires place on her.

Jaymee Grey: thief, loner, freak… empath. She lives in fear of men’s longings. And their hate. The change took her the first time at age eleven. It’s happened since – again and again. Until she learned to build her own protection, walls in her head, and learned the price of freedom: stay alone, don’t connect, live under the radar.

On a rain-soaked night in Vancouver, her not-so-normal life takes a nightmarish turn when an art heist goes horribly wrong and someone shatters her protection. Suspected of murder, and pursued by a serial killer who can force her to change, Jaymee must solve the mystery of her origins to solve the crime. Her only ally: an immortal man who just might love her. Unfortunately, he also has reasons to want her dead.

I have to agree with Wonderland Press - there is an underlying philosophical depth to this story that enriches it. It's hard to do the book justice. Romance? Mystery? Fantasy? Magic? It has all of those, but it's just, well, MORE. Read it - I think you'll like it!

Interesting premise, characters, lots of action (and sex). There is just nothing wrong with this book. If that was all it was, though, I probably would have blown it off. However, she gets into a lot of depth (but not preachiness) about the expectations that young women face. "Be what your lover wants you to be" isn't something that just empaths have to face. Philosophical meat to a catchy thriller. Very nice.
