“If you hide in hell, nobody’ll come calling.”

Those are words to live by for Youngblood, an American who escapes fraud charges in Las Vegas by hiding in a war-torn Balkan town in 1996. Belgrade, Serbia is hell–or paradise, depending on who you ask. Crime-ridden and ruled by decaying dictatorship and corruption, the city is perdition for everyone but Roko, a crime kingpin in his prime.

Irony has it that the worst place on Earth has the world’s most beautiful women, and Youngblood marries the most seductive of the fallen angels–Roko’s sister.

His dreams of a safe haven under the protection of his mob lieutenant brother-in-law evaporate after a night of weakness, and Youngblood is soon in over his head. Drawn into a gang war, he shoots the wrong man. Now, revenge is coming, but Youngblood’s not the target–his beautiful wife is.

Roko would do anything to save his sister, and all the avengers want is the shooter–Youngblood. Without Roko’s protection, Youngblood is caught between a rock and a hard place: he must trade his own life to save his loving wife.

He has come for Alexa Wyndham and nothing can stop him, not even himself. He knows he should leave her in peace.

Alexa Wyndham is a college student out on her own for the first time. She is an innocent in every sense of the word, her views of the world formed from the romantic poetry and literary novels she reads. Alexa thinks love should be a perfect dream. Then an evening out in Manhattan lands her in a feverish nightmare full of deadly supernatural beings. Is Alexa brave enough to see the good man inside the monster and free Cristien from the ageless evil that haunts him? When all the veils are torn down and the truth is revealed, will Alexa rise from the ashes like a phoenix or will love destroy her utterly?

The Innocent is a passionate, poetic and at times humorous novel about the transformative power of love. It will take the reader on a literary adventure from suffering to redemption, from innocence to heroism. At its heart, The Innocent is an allegory about Love and the immortal Soul.
