Sorozat: Shadow and Light Trilogy #1
A witch on the verge of achieving phenomenal power, Lealandra must turn to her half-breed demon ex-lover Taig for protection from the dark force that is after her and also from her own magic.
With her Counter-Balance dead and her coven against her, Taig’s blood and power is the only thing that can help her control her magic and survive the ascension and gain the strength to defeat her enemy.
Old feelings come flooding back as Taig allows her into his world and Lealandra finds herself fighting not only for survival but to win his broken heart again and heal the pain in their past. Can he forgive her for walking out on him all those years ago and will he ever believe her when she tells him that he’s not a monster but the man that she loves?
Egy világban, ahol általában a boszorkányok és démonok nem avatkoznak a másik faj problémáiba, most valami különös oknál fogva a démonok vadásznak Leára, és amikor elméletileg a szektája lenne számára a legbiztonságosabb, úgy tűnik, hogy az egyetlen személy, akiben valójában bízhat az a démon félvér ex pasija. Lea Felemelkedés jele tisztán jelzi, hogy Taignek nagy szerepe van a lány felemelkedésében. A kérdés csak az, hogy mi az a szerep és vajon elég erős-e, hogy megmentse Lealandrát. Ez egy verseny az idővel, egy háború a boszorkányok, démonok és a lány saját ereje ellen.
“I guess that’s why you’re here. Loverboy just doesn’t cut it when it comes to handling demons. That pair of weaklings would have him inside out and back to front before he could lift a finger to cast whatever impotent half-assed spell he could muster.”
“If I’d decided not to let him take you, he wouldn’t have. He would’ve died a lot sooner.”
“There were at least twenty storeys on the building and it was wide. He figured it housed around seven hundred witches. That was six hundred and ninety nine more than he was comfortable with.”
