Who is the handsome, mysterious and elegant Jasper Hart?
Tonight, as another shameless plug for my romantic urban fantasy novel Reborn, I’m reposting this character profile for one of Siobhan’s love interest Jasper Hart. [To those of you who had the misfortune honor (sorry, I’m feelin’ silly tonight) of reading the earliest version of Reborn, Jasper has undergone a surname change. It’s still a clue as to his true identity, but I kinda, maybe changed the underlying mythology of the book…..]

“You belong to…”
You belong to me. I know that’s what he wants to say, but after a pause he corrects himself.
“We belong together. I love you. You believe me, don’t you?”
