Soultalker

Reaper #4

by Amanda M. Holt

Samantha Bennet, half-angel vigilante, is horribly burned from her encounter with the Shiro Tai warriors. Her healer, Angela, helps, but due to now visible scars, Samantha must now reveal her identity as the Reaper to her boyfriend. Her decision will change her life forever.-At her confession, Neal-s reaction devastates her and she is forced to flee.- Samantha takes only a few possessions to her only sanctuary.- Within hours, her identity as the Reaper is all over the news. Betrayal strikes home. What is to become of her loved ones in the wake of Neal-s treachery?- Kyle Brandt, self-made millionaire, extends his support and resources to help her, but is a stranger with supernatural secrets of his own. She is intrigued. His gentle touch makes her blood course swiftly through her veins and his brooding dark eyed gaze is a hypnotic aphrodisiac. Soul searing yearning is compelling.- As days go by, Samantha mourns for her normal life, but with her injuries, is hardly her Reaper self. Add to that her face plastered on every channel on television and life as she knows it has come to an end.- Who will mind the shadows of the city in her absence?- Kyle suggests the enlisted aid of two mercenaries whom he trusts implicitly.- But can they be trusted? There is, after all, a bounty on her head.

About the author

Born in British Columbia, Canada in 1979, raised in Manitoba, Amanda Mary-Margaret Holt is the oldest of four children. She began writing at an early age, stories that always seemed to be of one paranormal genre or another. Sometimes these stories thrilled her teachers and parents...other times, they served only to horrify.

With no formal post-secondary training in English or literature studies, Amanda credits various teachers (Mr. Elliott and Mr. Ortwein, for example), her family, and her dear friend Ms. T with fostering her growth and development as an author.

Amanda worked a variety of jobs as a younger adult: she was a graphic artist, a bartender, an electrician's apprentice, a security guard, a graphic artist, a waitress, an adult novelty clerk, and at one point, even an Electrolux sales person. She recieved her Computer Programmer/Analyst diploma in 2003 and is now pursuing Bachelor of Nursing studies at the fourth-year level.

While dark fantasy is her favourite genre to write in, she has tried her hand at both mainstream erotica and contemporary romance and enjoyed those as well. So long as her heroine is a woman who is brave enough to face her darkest fears and bold enough to realize her innermost fantasies, therein lies a tale that Miss Holt aspires to tell.
