Basil by Michele Notaro

When I was young, I used to dream of finding my viramore—my soulmate—in all these crazy and amazing scenarios. But then my ex-girlfriend hired a mind-bender to mess with my memories, and well, it’s no surprise that romantic notions flew out of the window for me.
I guess it’s fitting that the first time I meet my viramore, he points a crossbow at my head and threatens to kill me if I don’t get out of his way. Thing is, I’ve always liked a good challenge, and Hiro Grimbsy is nothing if not challenging. He’s kind of a jerk, but I guess I’m glutton for punishment because I can’t seem to stay away.
When dark forces threaten to take away everything Hiro and Basil care about, will they be able to work together or will they let anger, speculations, and fear hold them back?
