Wings to Darkness (en Inglés) - Bari-Ellen Potter

Is a serial killer capable of love?

High school English teacher Gina Jablonski had better figure it out quick. Chained to a pipe in an abandoned building by her student, she needs to find Tito Hernandez' weakness before he kills her-by surrendering to her own dark desire.

It starts with Tito's damn amber eyes. Those eyes promise rapture beyond anything the lonely Gina could imagine; able to fulfill her deepest need for passionate love. Those eyes pin her against the wall and press into her stomach with swollen greed. They whiskey burn down her throat. Those eyes trap her like a fly in hardened resin.

Gina's heart bleeds for the poor, misunderstood boy. He has chosen her to be his special muse. He needs her. She can guide him in his search for expression through words to show him someone cares.

She can secretly love him.

The teacher offers to tutor her student after class. The developing friendship leads the relationship outside of school-lunch at the mall, a lakeside picnic, and a vacant parking lot. Gina ignores her growing attraction. Tito doesn't.

Can a serial killer choose not to kill?

WINGS TO DARKNESS is not exactly a love story. It is an edgy psychological thriller with a deeply-flawed female protagonist, a sexually psychopathic antagonist, and a provocative foray into dark sexuality. The novel abducts morality, shackles it against the wall, and demands submission to uncontrolled lust. Mostly, it is dark and twisty.
