    About this ebook

    When you love someone you give them your heart. But if it turns out they may literally want it - run like hell! This time there won't be any contact without one hell of an explanation!

    Jay loves Nic unconditionally. Completely. That is until he accidently overhears something he shouldn't. Something that suggests Nic is involved in a terrible scheme to use other cat clan members in the worst possible way.

    Now Jay's on the run. He's cold, hungry, terrified and heart-broken. But could there be more to what he's learnt about Nic than meets the eye? Is there any chance he could have made a mistake? And even if he has, can Jay ever forgive his lover for his lies?

    Why Jay Ran Away
    Author

    Jade Archer

    Jade Archer was born in 2010 after a prolonged pregnancy and labour of over 34 years! I've decided she is about 24, enjoys long walks in the country because she does not have five kids and a husband to care for, eats as much chocolate as she wants because she never has to worry about putting on weight (must be all those long walks!) and can often be found planning her next whirlwind world tour or endlessly typing away (without any interruptions) on another hot and steamy erotic romance. It might be space pirates; it might be shifters or a lonely vampire with a hunger for the girl next door, one thing is for sure, she loves variety and cannot wait to meet the next characters destined to fall in love.

      This third volume in Jade Archer's "Contact" series was even better than the first two. We get to see more details about the future “world” Jade Archer is building in this series. And let me tell you, they made my blood run cold.

      Jay is a slave who contracted himself out to learn skills valuable for his home planet, just like Lore in the first, and Blade in the second book. Jay, however, is under constant threat from the senior partners of the law firm he works for. Beatings and worse are quite frequent. He starts out as quite the timid, suppressed character. When he’s under threat, though, his enemies better watch out!

      Nic is a lawyer in the same firm, and has become Jay’s lover. He has a secret, and when Jay finds out, he thinks the worst. Nic desperately wants Jay back, and will risk anything to redeem himself. I loved how he thought he could do it all himself, only to discover that he needs Jay as much as Jay needs him.

      While all these books can be read as standalone stories, I am definitely enjoying the gradual reveal of more details. I liked the depth of this book. There was more of a story, while the focus on the characters was still intense. I can't wait for the next volume, which will be published on December 6.
