The Glimmer
Glimmer of The Other
Blurb:
I can tell when you're lying. Every. Single. Time.
I'm Jinx. As a private investigator, being a walking, talking lie detector is a useful skill - but let's face it, it's not normal. You'd think it would make my job way too easy, but even with my weird skills, I still haven't been able to track down my parent's killers.
When I'm hired to find a missing university student, I hope to find her propped up at a bar - yet my gut tells me there's more to this case than a party girl gone wild. Firstly, she's a bookish soul who's as likely to go off the rails as Mother Theresa. Secondly, I'm not the only one on her trail; she's also being tracked by the implacable and oh-so-sexy Inspector Stone.
Stone and I team up, and he shoves me into a realm where magic is real - a place where there are vampires and werewolves, dragons and trolls. And where my skills are more than just detecting lies...
Oh, and my dog? He's a freaking hell hound who can manipulate the magical realms themselves.
I need to find the girl.
I need to discover who killed my parents.
And I need to find out more about the attractive but mysterious Zachary Stone...
Except:
'What about porn?' I asked innocently. The car swerved.
'Christ,' Stone muttered. 'What about porn?'
'Is there like ... vampire on dragon action?'
He squeezed the bridge of his nose. 'God, I hope not. For one thing, they're sworn enemies.' He slid me a glance before looking away quickly. 'Cross-species relationships exist in the Other.' He cleared his throat. 'So there is cross-species porn. Not that I've seen any.' Lie.
'Truth seeker,' I said in a sing-song voice.
He reddened. After a minute he said, 'I investigated an illegal porn ring. I had to watch it to review the evidence.' He sounded extremely awkward, but his words rang with truth. Hmmm.
'But did you ever watch it on any other occasion?'
He didn't answer, and I snickered. He turned the music on, and I laughed louder. 'You know, having a partner is kind of fun,' I teased.
'Is that what we are, Jinx? Partners?' He turned on the smoulder, his gaze hot and heavy.
