Book excerpt: Three years ago, Sunny Day’s life came to an end. Cursed, forgotten, and pushed to the fringes of society, the former EMT has hit rock bottom—which is a real achievement in an alternate-future Alaska where even granite floats. A silk-clad stranger appears, and with him, a kernel of hope: A bounty, $100,000 for one gangly math teacher. As Sunny makes a desperate grab for the cash, it becomes apparent that her man is…not a man. Hunter becomes the hunted, and the resulting grudge match will threaten the lives of her family and everything Sunny holds dear. Sunny Day is the badass heroine you didn’t realize you needed. But…every heroine needs an origin story. Here’s Sunny’s. Fans of Harry Dresden and Kate Daniels will be enthralled by this dark new urban fantasy series. Contemporary adventure meets sci-fi horror in a fast-paced dystopian tale guaranteed to sink its hooks into you.
