She found the stone, and it's Halloween, but she loves no one. When she meets Derek Paulson, a paranormal investigator, she is immediately drawn to him. But the abomination within only wants his blood.Derek had waited for this moment for two years, knowing Carol was his soul mate even though they had never met. With his special gifts, he was aware the minute she had been taken by a demon. To save her, he must risk everything, even his life. He has no idea if their connection to each other, yet untested, will be enough to defeat the devil within her that will be released when the stone is in blood.
