40 Souls to Keep
Seven years ago, Jase awoke with the mystical power to heal people—and no memory of his past. The only clue: the number forty tattooed on his arm. Driven by a mission he doesn’t understand, Jase follows his visions to those he’s meant to save. He is convinced that the fortieth person he’s drawn to is the key to finally learning the truth.
Social worker Lucas Jacobson’s job is to protect Macy. So when Jase shows up claiming he’s there to heal the child, Lucas is wary.Then Macy is abducted, and Lucas has no choice but to trust in Jase.
But Jase is certain of one thing: if Macy dies, a dark fate awaits them all.
To my loving husband, who always believed I had this inside me. And to my parents, for allowing me to make memories in Naples and the Gulf Coast. I miss you very much. You are both in my thoughts daily.
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all the people who have helped and supported me throughout this project. I would like to specifically thank the Collier County Sherriff’s Office and the Children’s Advocacy Center of Collier County for their time and information.
And also to Betsy, a sister of my heart. Thank you for your time, thoughts, feedback and cheerleading. I couldn’t have done this without you.
