Description
(Text)
In a world of magical artifacts and fantastical beings, a woman with a deadly magic secret needs the help of the minotaur she s trying to forget in the sizzling sequel to Ruby Dixon's New York Times bestseller Bull Moon Rising.
Gwenna has always considered herself a normal person. A former servant, she wants nothing more than to land a steady job with the Royal Artifactual Guild so she can make some steady coin to send home to her mother. She's not special. She's certainly not a necromancer. That would be impossible, given how necromancing (or any 'mancing) is forbidden upon penalty of death. So if the dead keep talking to her? Well, she's going to keep on ignoring them. They're not going to stand in the way of her dreams.
Also standing in her way? One big, arrogant, far-too-flirty Taurian named Raptor. They slept together once, and now he wants more . . . but she doesn t have time for that. Her focus is on being a fledgling, a trainee for the Royal Artifactual Guild. But Raptor won't go away. He's on a secret mission for the guild to find an artifact thief.
Problem is, he thinks the thief is Gwenna.
How can she convince Raptor that he's got the wrong girl when all the signs point to her? And how do you tell a Taurian you can't date him because you hear dead people and it might cost you your life?
(Review)
"Dixon writes a steamy whodunit with fleshed-out characters in a broadening fantasy world. Library Journal
"Dixon scorches the pages with intense and frequent erotic scenes but still finds time for ample character development and intrigue. Overflowing with both heart and heat, this is sure to please series fans." Publishers Weekly
"Part murder mystery, part fantastical world lore, and all romance, Dixon's fans will be thrilled to follow Gwenna on her adventure, while also swooning for the rogueish Raptor as he falls for Gwenna." Booklist
(Author portrait)
Ruby Dixon is an author of all things science fiction and fantasy romance. She is a Sagittarius and a Reylo shipper, and loves farming sims (but not actual housework). She lives in the South with her husband and a couple of goofy cats, and can t think of anything else to put in her biography. Truly, she is boring.
