The Gryphons have a secret. And someone thinks Ana knows it.
Back
in May, things were heating up between healer Ana Miradwen and the
King's Enforcer, Vincent Ondarr. Then Vincent stopped seeing Ana
abruptly, only to resurface in July--with a fiancee. Ana's hurt, but
she's angry too. When Vincent summons her to his office, she plans to
tell him off.
But Vincent has a proposition for her, and not one
she expects. A half-breed rights group called the Gryphons is fighting
for change--but it may be a front for something darker. Vincent needs
Ana to join the Gryphons and investigate.
Ana's happy to help,
especially since it means spending time with a couple of gorgeous elf
men. Never mind that Vincent thinks they're smugglers. But when someone
tries to kill Ana, she realizes that she's in way over her head. Only
it's too late to back out.
Analefa Miradwen has spent the last ten years avoiding vampires. She
knows her blood is a delicacy, but she doesn’t want to share. Not after
the last time, which nearly left her dead.
When the vampire mage Magnus begins stalking her, Ana turns to the
King’s Enforcer for help. Vincent Ondarr has the manpower and the
magic-power to keep her safe. According to him, Ana’s blood doesn’t
just taste good, it enhances a mage’s magic.
The trouble is, Vincent’s a vampire mage too. If Ana wants to keep
her blood to herself, she’ll have to figure out which one of them she
can trust. And what exactly Magnus wants from her...
May Armstrong
used to be a renowned animal tamer, until her mind-control abilities
disappeared along with her ghostly mentor. She’s been retired for two years--but
a pushy king won’t let her refuse his job offer. He wants her to tame a dragon
for him. She knows she can’t do it.
But when May’s current employer turns out to be more than just an innocent
ship’s captain, suddenly she’s a wanted woman in more ways than one. May has a
big decision to make: risk being eaten by a dragon, or outrun bounty hunters and
city guards for the rest of her life.
