The Rite of the Faithful: Wynne's final trial before rising as a Flame Mage within the Quinarium.

Though she thinks herself ready, the task astonishes her. Wynne is to investigate the gruesome slaughter of livestock at a nearby village and rumors of a mana source—an impossible fountain of mana, the fuel used for magic.

While the rite is unusual enough on its own, Wynne is paired with the Initiate Dara, whom she can hardly understand. For Wynne, serving the Quinarium as a Mage means rebelling against her family's wishes and turning her back on wealth and status, while in Dara's eyes, becoming a Blood Mage is the only way she sees to escape a life of poverty.

I don’t believe in happily ever afters.

Those belong in romance novels—not in a life like mine. I’m too busy running from my past to risk falling for anyone.

But a little fun?
That I can handle.

Especially when it comes in the form of Remy Sterling—tattoos, tailored suits, dangerous smile… and my boss at The Back Door bar.

Remy says he wants no strings, no promises. Just the same late nights and stolen mornings I do.

Now he’s discovered a found family he doesn't trust himself to keep and a world that needs protecting by someone who's still figuring out if he deserves to exist at all. Frank isn't alone. Wynd carries guilt over millennia of mistakes that cost innocent lives. Take is a refugee from a hell dimension trying to prove he's more than his demonic nature. Wish Girl survived having her life’s work taken from her and came out the other side with power and zero patience for bullshit. Together they form a family built not from blood relations but from shared trauma and the choice to protect others anyway. From $2.99 – SHOP NOW /

I met my ex-fiancé’s father… in my panties.

One minute, I’m walking my best friend’s colossal Great Dane.
The next? He bolts. The leash snags my jeans.

Panic hits me as strangers openly stare at my lace panties.
Phones rise like a sea of tiny cameras.
