Welcome to Illusion Town on the colony world of Harmony--like Las
Vegas on Earth, but way more weird.
Living in this new, alien world doesn't stop the settlers from trying to
re-create what they've left behind. Case in point--weddings are still
the highlight of any social calendar. But it's the after-party that
turns disastrous for Lucy Bell. Kidnapped and drugged as she leaves the
party, she manages to escape--only to find herself lost in the
mysterious, alien underground maze of glowing green tunnels beneath
Illusion Town. She's been surviving on determination and cold pizza,
scavenged for her by a special dust bunny, when help finally shows up.
Gabriel Jones is the Ghost Hunter sent to rescue her, but escaping the
underground ruins isn't the end of her troubles--it's only the
beginning. With no rational reason for her abduction, and her sole
witness gone on another assignment for the Guild, whispers start
circulating that Lucy made it all up. Soon her life unravels until she
has nothing left but her pride. The last thing she expects is for
Gabriel Jones to come back to town for her.
The Lucy that Gabriel finds is not the same woman he rescued, the one
who looked at him as if he were her hero. This Lucy is sharp, angry, and
more than a little cynical--instead of awe, she treats him with extreme
caution. But a killer is still hunting her, and there aren't a lot of
options when it comes to heroes. Despite her wariness, Gabriel is also
the one person who believes Lucy--after all, he was there. He's
determined to help clear her reputation, no matter what it takes. And as
the new Guild Boss, his word is law, even in the lawlessness of Illusion
Town.
