Mara: A Modified Origin Story

Sometimes, super powers downright suck... In a world full of princesses and heroes, epic quests and happy endings, Mara doesn't quite fit in. Maybe it’s her jet black hair. Or her complexion, that’s darker than most fair-skinned princesses. Or maybe it’s that she can kill people by simply touching them. The perfect power for an assassin, she uses her "gift.” Along with her pet hawk, Artemis, she makes a life for herself in the shadows, contract killing for witches, warlocks and other undesirables. When a handsome stranger named Dave follows her on an assignment, she does everything she can to shake him. But even after she calls him out, he's intrigued and sticks around. Then the unthinkable happens. Mara begins to develop feelings for Dave. Feelings are the last thing she needs as a contract killer of heroes. If she’s caught, she will most certainly be hanged for her crimes. Can she finish the job she started, or will her burgeoning conscience interfere? And can she be with Dave, or will her touch kill him like the others? Find out in this exciting origin short story, part of the sexy, super-powered Modified series. Start out with Modified Box Set and continue on to Modified: Unified Part 1 to read the rest of the series! Reader Discretion is advised: While this origin story contains less profanity than the Modified volumes, there is still sexy sexiness. So as one reviewer pointed out, it's not suitable for middle grade or YA. Or anyone super serious, for that matter.
