One night. All I want is one night with her. No hectic calendar, no deadlines, no work, and no kids. A night out for the first time in months. But my attempt at a surprise backfires. And our fun night out turns into a terse night in. Until she tells me something neither of us prepared for. Four years ago, I thought I put her monsters away for good. But it turns out, there’s new ones nearby. What I didn’t realize was it’s not her they’re after. It’s me. Toxic is a 19,000 word novella featuring Sean and Raquel. It is an optional entry point to a new sub-series set within the Reflections universe—In Secret We Sin. It is strongly recommended that you have read the Reflections Trilogy, Veritas or Lies due to numerous character references and/or event callbacks. This will be difficult to follow without having read one or all of those. You will not need to read Toxic in order to follow the new sub-series.
