Genres:
New Adult, Urban Fantasy
Aria’s pyrokinetic ability has
always been hard to control, and being pulled in so many directions, isn’t
making it any easier. Now she has to help Inarus, a foe turned friend who is
being targeted by the Human Alliance Corporation—the very organization he once
worked for.
But the HAC has more than just
Inarus in their sights. Aria finds herself going deep into enemy territory to
save a witchling child with never before seen powers, that the HAC has
kidnapped to further their own ends.
Aria has been hired to save a
child once before, and she failed. That failure has haunted her even to this
day and she won’t let herself fail again. With the HAC closing in, and
complications between herself and the Pack rising, Aria has no choice but to
succeed. A child’s life is on the line and Aria will risk everything to save
that life.

I trudged
up the stairs to my apartment and wiped wet tendrils from my face. Water
sloshed in my boots, a reminder of today’s most recent adventure. I’d had the
pleasure of bodyguard duty for a water nymph, which was no easy task given
that, in her eyes, I was a glorified babysitter, and we happened to be staying
in a cabin that was mere feet from the Spokane River. It was the middle of
January, and I’d taken the polar bear plunge more than once today. I was chilled
to the bone, wet, hungry, and I sorely needed a good cup of coffee, or three.
Only one more flight of stairs to go. I could already taste the
coffee on my tongue and feel the hot spray of a warm shower against my skin.
As my apartment door came into view, the hairs on the back of my
neck rose and my body went on high alert. Something was off, and dammit, wasn’t
that just my luck. I stood in the hall, a chilling breeze whipping my wet hair
around my face from the open balcony doors and stinging my cheeks. Shit, it was
cold.
I narrowed my gaze. Why were the balcony doors open in the middle
of winter? It was like a blizzard out there. I stepped closer toward the
balcony, intending to shut the doors, when a splash of red to my left caught my
attention instead. There was blood on the doorknob leading into my apartment.
This couldn’t be good.
I took a deep breath and debated just turning around. I was too
tired to deal with anything else today. Was it too much to ask for some dry
clothes and a hot cup of coffee? For chrissakes, I’d take a cold cup of coffee
at this point. Then again, it was my apartment, and with my luck, there would
be a dead body inside and I’d be framed for the murder. Why couldn’t stuff like
this happen at a decent time of day when I was fully rested?
I pressed my ear against the door. Well, really it was more like I
slumped against the door, but the result was the same. I listened for any signs
of movement. The wooden door was cool against my cheek. Silence greeted me.
Hmm, maybe there really is a dead body, I mused with a sick sense of morbid
curiosity.
