Leigh Savage lives in Saint Louis, MO with her husband and two children.  Leigh is known for her paranormal erotic romance novels Angel of Death and Shadows of My Past.  She has also written a collection of short stories called Bound by Blood and her new release Dream Dragon the Dark Side of Poetry.  Leigh is currently working on her next paranormal erotic romance short Surrender to the Night that's a prequel to Angel of Death as well as book three in her vampire series called Embrace of the Immortal.    
           
“I grew up loving to escape in the world of stories that my Father would write just for me.  So, it wasn’t any wonder that as I got older, I too picked up the pen and started writing.”


Visions of death, sorrow, and anguish are common for Desi while working with the St. Louisville Police Department as a consultant in tracking down kidnappers and murders. However, a single touch from Barcuilai and her visions were of another time and place. Why then was the man in her visions standing right in front of her in the present? Desi wasn't sure how to handle these visions of sorrow that she saw when she touched Barcuilai. They troubled her in a way that made her feel as if her very soul was being torn apart. She wanted to flee; just as much as she wanted to erase the pain from his golden eyes. Together Barcuilai and Desi could not deny the connection they felt for one another. Will Barcuilai find love once more only to lose it again when Desi becomes the target of the very serial killers she's helping the police track down or will Desi just become another shadow of his past?



The cab pulled up outside what looked like a castle. The rain was still coming down strong, Barcuilai handed the cab driver some money then turned to Desi.  “I’m sorry, my lady, but I’m afraid we're going to have to make a dash for the door or else we will be completely soaked.”  He smiled devilishly.
        “Are you crazy?   Run in these heels?”  Desi exclaimed.       
“Hum, that’s a problem. I can’t have you falling and hurting yourself; that just won’t do.”             Without a word Barcuilai exited the cab and went to Desi’s side and opened the door.       
“What are you doing?”
In one swift motion, he swooped Desi up into his arms and ran with her until he got her to the safety of the porch.  Only then did he set her down so he could open the door. “Welcome to my home.”  Barcuilai said while gesturing for her to enter before him. Once inside Desi glanced around. The house was huge. In fact you could possibly fit her entire apartment building in his house. “Wow!” is all that she said. Barcuilai looked at Desi standing in his doorway, water dripping to create a puddle on the floor.  Her shirt was completely see through, her nipples were taught against the clingy fabric. “Let’s get you upstairs to dry off before you get cold.” Barcuilai said with hunger burning in his gaze.
