"An intriguing story of the price and power of becoming psychic."

Christine Feehan steps away from her Carpathian series to give us a whole new paranormal romance experience with Shadow Games. The novel opens right in the thick of things as the military have an on-going experiment to turn top military men into psychically stealth weapons.

However this project is taking too long and the pressure is on the good doctor, Peter Whitney, to complete the task. This being a life long dream and quest or his you would think he would be eager to succeed. But there are complications and some of the men have died or are dying. At his request he asks that his daughter be brought on to the project to help 'speed' things along.

Lily enters the project eager to help her father with his dream. However when she encounters one of the leaders of the team being converted, Captain Ryland Miller, complications start to mount. For not only is she sensing something going wrong with these men, she is also drawn inexplicably to this man who exudes raw power. She also notices the men who are under going this process has been separated and their personal rights taken away.

The leader of this group of elite men, Ryland Miller, has had enough. His mind is wracked with painful activity and the only time he finally feels any measure of peace is when the beautiful scientist Lily enters his domain. He knows he must save what is left of his men in this experiment and believes Lily is the answer. To ask this of her would mean Lily must betray her father's dream and compromise her hard earned career. But as the story unfolds we learn that Ryland and Lily are connected on a greater level that will only enhance their relationship should she choose to help him.

Ms. Feehan does an incredible job of heightening the intrigue and twisting the plot to keep the reader on their toes. Her characters are compelling and unique. For a good suspense-filled, paranormal romance, I would highly recommend Shadow Games.
