Zombie — Joely Skye

Dreams of escape become his worst nightmare…

Two years after Josh McKay captured escaped Minder Kiran Brunner, Josh's life is in ruins. Desire had a hand in letting the beautiful monster sink psychic hooks into his will, and now he is essentially a prisoner of the agency, his every move watched for any hint of a connection that could lead to Kir.

Unable to stand by and let an amoral Minder destroy his lover, Kir extracts Josh from the agency's compound and sweeps him away to a secluded cabin to heal. It's just the two of them, Kir and Josh. Both wounded at the hands of the agency, both struggling to find the will to trust each other through the agency-induced barrier of hatred and fear.

Kir has all the patience in the world. What he doesn't have is time. Whatever love they have rebuilt may be too fragile to withstand the future they face…
