VIVIENNE CALLAHAN, discharged from the hospital after
surviving a near-fatal attack from Riley, her abusive ex-boyfriend, has come to
the safety of Mikah’s protection. As she continues to heal physically and
mentally from her ordeal, she begins to have strange dreams...dreams that
follow her into waking life and hint at a fate she never could’ve foreseen and
dangers far greater than Riley.
Meanwhile, MIKAH BLAKE has some ideas about her future, too,
and the more she considers his proposals, the weaker her resistance to him
becomes. His recent actions have taught her to respect and trust him, but soon
her feelings for him threaten to deepen into something more, something she may
not be ready for.
In the third book of the Reason series, Vivienne will
discover who and what she and the people around her really are.

Excerpt:
"Mikah, Vivienne has decided that she wants to know the
sex of her baby. Do you want to know, too?" Dr. A. asks.
Mikah's face lights up. "If she wants to know, then I'd
like to know, too." The whole time he says this, it's as though his eyes
are boring into me, searching, seeking, wanting. Similar to the way he looked
at me when I first met him at the diner.
"Okay then," Dr. A. says. She walks around to the
other side of the bed from the ultrasound machine and places the device into a
holder of some sort that is attached to the bed. "How's the view,
Mikah?"
I now notice the little image in the corner of the screen
that shows what Mikah can see. It isn't much, really: a little bit of my bump,
but more of the machine that Dr. Alston is now standing at. She turns the
monitor toward us. "This might be a little shaky on your end, Mikah."
"Alright. Viv, you okay?"
"Yeah," I say to Mikah.
Dr. A. proceeds to push my sweatshirt and tank top up so
that my belly is exposed. Once that’s done, she goes for the bottle and squirts
nice, warm gel along the lower half of my belly. Then she brings out the small,
flat-headed wand and gently presses it to my stomach.
Everything is very quiet as Dr. Alston does her thing with
pushing buttons.
I can see the baby's heart pumping wildly. She pushes
another button and the echoing sound of a heartbeat fills the room.
She moves the wand around a little more and the head comes
into focus. It looks similar to last time, but this time it's bigger; there
isn't as much black surrounding the baby as the first time.
She points to the monitor. "There are the eyes, nose,
lips and chin. See this string of pearls? That's the baby's spine." I
watch as the baby moves. "Oh, I see. A little showoff." She laughs
and moves the wand again. "There's an arm, and the other one is...right
there." She moves her finger up on the screen, pointing at a faint,
translucent white line in the background, leading up to a cluster of shorter
white lines. "The other hand."
She moves her hand down further on the screen at the same
time she moves the wand. "A leg," she says.
I'm starting to be able to see what she's pointing out. She
moves the wand again to my right side, and I can see feet. Two of them with
little tiny bones. As if on cue, the baby spreads its legs, and one foot goes
off the screen.
