Entrusted
by Connie Ann Michael
Thrust
into a world of Native American legends about Skinwalkers and Ancient
Ones, Emma Hunter finds herself in the middle of a battle for a heart
holding great powers – A heart hidden within her.
Seventeen-year-old
Emma wants what every teenage girl wants: a life that revolves around
school, her friends, and a boyfriend who only has eyes for her.
Little does she know that in order to get one, she must sacrifice the
other two. After a series of events put into motion by Luke, the boy
she thought loved her, Emma is kicked out of her group home and her
school. Her best friend mysteriously vanishes and now she’s forced
to move to a secluded coastal town, where she hopes to escape Luke’s
obsessive control. Instead, she finds her dreams invaded not only by
Luke, but Solomon, a mysterious Native American warrior sent to
protect her.
But
when Solomon shows up in her reality to explain he’s her protector,
she soon learns that he’s so much more. As Emma struggles to
understand what’s happening to her, she must also deal with her
undeniable attraction to Solomon. Their connection is stronger than
anything Emma has ever experienced before and now she must decide:
can she trust him with her heart? And just how far will she go to
protect it?

I closed my eyes. I
couldn’t look at him and say what I needed to say. I wanted to
accept his help, I wanted so badly not to be alone but I was afraid.
“I was told not to trust you. I need more time but he’ll come.
He’ll eliminate you. That’s what he does.”
He leaned toward me,
his tone stern. “You have to live the life you have been given. You
did not cause nor deserve what has happened. Don’t force yourself
to shut people out before you give them a chance. I’m stronger than
you think.” His voice hovered over me. “You can trust me. I’ll
never hurt you. And I’m not asking to be your friend. You have no
choice in my involvement. Accept my help or not, I’m here to stay.”
My eyes were drawn
to his. The pull toward him was overwhelming. I was losing my
resolve.
“Why are you
afraid of me?” His words turned soft and I wondered if I had heard
them at all. “When I come…why are you afraid?”
“I don’t know
who to believe.” I sighed. “My mind is being told too many
things. I don’t know what I am. What you are. I am afraid for
you. I don’t want to be responsible for another life.”
He took my hand and
rubbed it against his cheek. So soft, I thought. No stubble. Flashes
of Luke’s rough skin against my cheek when he’d finally kissed me
slithered through my thoughts. My breath caught. I closed my eyes,
trying to regain my own thoughts, to push the hard kiss from my mind.
Luke’s words echoed through me. I
was your first kiss.
Solomon
leaned forward and touched his lips to my cheek, lingering briefly
before moving away.
