Killjoy Levar Ravel

Can her joy of life withstand a killer's joy of death?
A woman of plain living, Gwen Orangegrave would rather balance budgets all day than enjoy life. Maybe you can't help being a killjoy, when you work for the biggest mob in Boston and you're married to the boss, a man even stricter than you. Corbin Locke, the mob's man in Congress, shows Gwen a new life and reignites old feelings-until he throws her over and cheats the mob all in one day. To get their revenge on him, the mob hires only the best: a nameless hitman so young and cheerful, you'd never know he's the master of faking suicides. As the woman scorned, Gwen goes along at first. But when doubts come, she seeks another solution. Risking the wrath of both mob and assassin, her search will confront her with what she lost in the past, and who she might save in the future. She must fight for a man's life-and perhaps hers, too-while evading the grim reapers who roam Boston. Little does Gwen know how deep her quest will take her into the hitman's world of dark magic. Killjoy or not, can she prove any match for the best killer in the world? * * * * *
