title: The Ties That Bind
author: Norinne, Rebecca
description: An eye for an eye. A heart for a heart. My name is Xander St. John and I have two jobs: protect my brother Jayce - with my life, if necessary - and take out the family's enemies before they can strike first. It's a job I excel at too, until Jayce gave me the one directive I can never carry out. I'm to murder Arabella Wilson, the only woman I've ever loved, the one who destroyed me years ago. and if I defied him, Jayce promised he'd have me killed too. So now I have a choice to make: who lives and who dies? Both Jayce and Arabella are my enemies, yet each such an ingrained part of my soul that if I lose either, a part of me will die right along with them. So what will it be? My twin or my lover? My darkness or my light?
