Disengaged — Jamie Magee

Matthew 24:12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.

"Everyone wants a bad boy until they realize they aren't really bad -- some unattainable alpha -- but just a boy with layers and layers of hell that have to be dealt with..."

Finding herself stranded in a new city Ember Bloom thought she'd reached her all time low.
She was wrong.
A mindless walk to a dead-end job landed her in the path of her gambling fathers' enemies. Her only defense was a stranger, Slayton Winslow, a known enforcer and fighter -- rumored to be Odin's prince, underground royalty.
On sight, Slayton stole her breath and rushed her heart. His enigmatic attraction to her and how stoically he shielded her only churned Ember's attraction to the bad boy who had given her safe haven in a real life hell. The draw to him gave her a reason to fight, to awaken. She knew every second could be their last in the city seeded with treacherous deceit and life threatening power plays.
