"A page-turning action-adventure romance!"
An excellent Aftermath cleaner, Nia'Mora keeps the corpses
of Amaranthine elves from being discovered by humans.
During the birthing of her good friend, wherein all the
Amaranthine elves gathered together to celebrate, she is
drawn to two mysterious men--Severin, one of the heralds
who came to watch and record Amaranthine history, and Zan
Wynn, a motorcycle-driving bad boy of the Fae. Their coming
together in that momentous occasion would bring Nia'Mora
her death or love everlasting and the salvation of her
people. Romance mixed with adventure makes for an exciting mix.
From the first word, the author sucked me into the story,
and though this is my first urban fantasy book, it won't be
my last. I enjoyed discovering the world that the author
has created, though the volume of myriad information
sometimes made me dizzy. Still, the underlying mystery and
the subsequent action propelled me onward to keep
on "turning" the pages. The interaction between the main characters was interspaced
with awareness and desire and tenderness, and the love
scenes, if short, sizzled. They may be bond-mates, and as
such, fated to be together, but I would've loved to read
more of their developing relationship. That said, I would love to read more books set in the world
of the Amaranthine elves.

Aftermath cleaner, Nia Mora, is destined to die—tonight. Severin, the inscrutable and utterly delicious harbinger of death has already arrived to bear witness… but damn his duty. He will not stand by and watch. Not when Nia Mora may be the Fae's last hope of survival. Damn Severin and his heroic delusions. Fae-tech mogul, Zan Wynn, is equally drawn to Nia'Mora and as the quintessential--yes, those are your panties dropping--bad boy he can't be bothered to play fair. Oblivious to her doom, Nia Mora's concern is for the missing Way, the very essence of the Fae and the reason they are trapped in the mortal world. That and the small matter of remaining single when she can't deny Severin's power over her or Zan Wynn's hypnotic pull. But is the nefarious Wynn a second potential mate or the prelude to her destruction? Genre: Mainstream Romance: Urban Fantasy, Interracial/Multicultural
