Produktbeschreibung

MARLOWE GILES moves from Dallas to Manhattan, ready to start her new life and a new job at a prestigious advertising agency. But after arriving in NYC, her nights are taken over by a dream she cannot control. She's not dreaming on demand; she is dreaming whether she wants to or not, of a priestess who offers a wealth of magical understanding - as well as a warning: Save me. Save you.

These dreams reveal to Marlowe a magick she didn't know she had, and that magick draws her into a world she didn't know existed. It also exposes her to a dangerous group known as the Arkane, who covet the magical powers her dreams are awakening. Meeting Char, he explains about the Arkane, who use elemental magick through rituals to Consecrate the soul's power of others into talismans, wielding Fascination and Compulsion to manipulate their victims.

After meeting Char, Marlowe is invited into a different world of magick to combat the Arkane's evil - the Arcana - with a hierarchy structured around the tarot's major arcana and directed by the enigmatic Magician. With her position as the High Priestess and the magick she is learning in her dreams, her powers develop quickly, an inner vision sharpened by colors and vibrations, and the magick of elemental powers to manipulate sound and light.

When she discovers her boss at the advertising agency, Nic Barnaby, is part of the Arkane they are fighting, Marlowe is torn between her blossoming love for Char and the respect and trust she feels for Nic. As more secrets unravel, she realizes the vendetta between the Arcana and the Arkane began with their grandparents. The Priestess in her dreams, her own grandmother, is about to be sacrificed by the Arkane, and Marlowe will do whatever it takes to save her. Save me. Save you. It has always been the goal.

In this world of power, the hunter is the hunted, and Marlowe is in their sights. Can Char save her from the Arkane's evil desires? Can Marlowe use her magick to save her grandmother? Will Char's love be enough to keep Marlowe safe?

This is 120k words of steamy romance, magick, and danger. Enjoy the ride!

Autorenporträt

I live in the hill country of central Texas, writing as a full-time author, listening to or creating music, and just chillin' in the garden. Whatever sets the mind free.

I got my first tarot cards at age ten, and for my current Lady Babalon series, I used the tarot's Major Arcana to establish a hierarchy for my characters. You don't need to know tarot to understand the magick, but most of my readers admit to "having their cards read" after their exposure to the Lady Babalon series.

In another trilogy that I wrote, The DayStar series, I built a story around the idea of immortals living among us. How exciting, or how boring would it be to live thousands of years? What would you look for? What would you treasure? What would you be called - names are a game in my life anyway!

So, writing is my adventure, and I'm thrilled to share it with you. It's been quite the ride. If you read one of my books, I hope you leave a review. Whether you love me or slay me, I appreciate that you took the time to say something.

Trust me! I know how hard it is to find the right words.

Smiles. //jb
