The re-issuse of Out of the Darkness coming in July 2013
FBI profiler Alex Michaels’ life was shattered when a sadistic serial killer murdered her twin sister and left Alex with a career ending injury. Hoping to put the past behind her, she sets off across country with a truck driver she barely knows.
Royce McIntire knows Alex is on the run from something or someone, but he doesn’t care. He’s fallen in love with her and is finally getting his life back on track.
The killer is hot on Alex’s trail though, determined to find the one victim who got away. As more bodies turn up dead Alex has no choice but to tell Royce who she really is. Will the love that has blossomed between them be strong enough to sustain them, or will the killer get to Alex before they even have a chance to find out?

Reviews for Out of the Darkness
Chosen as the 'Publishers Pick' for the month of June at Champagne Books!
Dee @ The Romance Studio gave it 4 Hearts!
Anne Patrick pens an inspirational tale filled with faith as well as suspense. Alex, Royce and others in the story have hit rock bottom and started to climb their way out. Kyle gives us some welcome relief from the tension inherent in the serial killer's violence while he hunts for Alex. He's a charmer who steals the story away from the bad guy and the adults with their struggles. Real life scenarios of small town living and people with a heart of gold are also a welcome diversion. Ms. Patrick seems to blend it all together. We sink into the pits of crime and evil only to be brought out of it with the realities of every day life. The reader knows the killer is getting closer but it's fun to watch Kyle try to play matchmaker.

She is so strong and self sufficient but doesn't have the one thing she wants most. Royce is a wonderful tortured hero. One who has a lot of past issues but still possessed a tenderness in his heart. They really fit together well and you felt the struggle each had in trying to accept their feelings for one another. I really enjoyed all the supporting characters as well. Anne allows you a glimpse into the mind of a serial killer which is kinda scary but interesting to see the twisted way they think. She keeps you guessing through the story who the killer really is and you don't find out until the end. I like how she works faith in God into the story without being preachy. The story is chock full of action, suspense and romance. I highly recommend Out of the Darkness! Read the whole review here!
