When Ryker arrives in Puerto Rico with his friend Mitch, all he’s anticipating are a few days of luxurious accommodation and an exciting place to discover. The last thing he expects is to find he has an immediate attraction to one of the hotel staff, the handsome and flirtatious Alejandro, who appears to be equally interested in him. After spending a day with Alejandro hiking a difficult trail, Ryker finds his attraction deepening, though he knows it can’t be more than a holiday romance between them. And he can’t help but feel Alejandro is hiding something. Despite being warned not to leave the complex after dark, he follows Alejandro one night and discovers a world he never imagined existed. And the attraction between them becomes something much deeper. But that’s the least of his worries when it becomes apparent something dark and deadly is stalking him.

Metamorphosis

“Not far now.” Alejandro stopped and pointed. “Just up there and around, and we’ll be at the waterfall. A perfect spot for a break, a cool down, and maybe a biteor two.” Alejandro grinned, displaying white, even teeth, and Ryker nodded eagerly.


“Can’t wait.” Ryker followed Alejandro and a few minutes later stopped dead. The waterfall was right in front of him and looked amazing. Ryker got his phone out to snap a couple of photos and a selfie with the waterfall as a backdrop.


“You were right. It isbeautiful.” On getting no reply, Ryker turned, and needed to pick up his dropped jaw. Although he tried not to stare, or at least not openly, Ryker’s gaze was riveted to Alejandro.
