Snippet Sunday-Undiscovered Angel

Here's a little tease from my paranormal romance UNDISCOVERED ANGEL...

The atmosphere still felt heavy and oppressive with something dark, though it was less pronounced now. He tucked the blanket more closely around the motionless woman in his arms. In sleep, she looked like a child, young and defenseless, her fisted hand resting quietly on his chest, her thick lashes forming dark crescents against her pale skin. Her intricate hairstyle had come loose and wisps of spun silk tickled his neck as Jerry cranked the heat and opened the rear vents. He absently stroked the softness of her cheek, his long fingers brushing a wayward strand of hair behind her ear and she curled into him like a lost kitten. He felt something heavy settle in his chest, a temptation in the air that had nothing to do with evil, but everything to do
with sin. Damn, this was so not on his agenda.

The blurb:
Empath Katrina Shepard spends most of her time alone, preferring solitude to the constant battering from the pain and emotion of others. When she meets publishing tycoon Kassian McAllister at a party in honor of her best friend, Kat finds that she isn't the only one with strange psychic powers. That night, Kat intercepts the malevolent energy of a woman's murder, and Kassian is compelled to act, taking her under his protection. A quest for vengeance has been this Earthbound angel's closest companion for the last century, but Kat reawakens emotions he thought long dead. As Kat and Kassian grow closer, she discovers the truth about herself and sees a chance for belonging she has always craved. But Jack the Ripper is still roaming the Earth and Kat has become the ideal target. Will Kassian finally have his revenge on the Whitechapel killer or lose yet another woman he loves?

I love the premise---I'm always on board for Jack the Ripper (that doesn't sound right, does it?)---and this passage is simply lovely.

Oh he has it bad. Love this line: "...nothing to do with evil, but everything to do with sin."
