When the Water Burns

Book excerpt:

"Pain and pleasure are two sides of the same coin and I spend freely. Which side faces up in the end isn’t my concern. I enjoy them both equally."

Kyla is an immortal water spirit called an Ondine. She lives in Key West, Florida and plays in a bar called the Parrot Dice Bar and Grill.

Tomas Salazar owns a fifty-foot charter boat and sailed into Key West never expecting to stay. Five years later, he still longs for Kyla and can’t bring himself to move along.

When a hired assassin named Vito Quesada stops in the bar for a beer, his interest in Kyla puts all three of them on a collision course that will change all their lives forever.
