From her humble roots as a bard, Elemiel has used her charm, keen intellect, and plenty of strategic cleavage to rise through the ranks of Divonian society. In business, romance, or politics, there isn't an opponent that the fetching elf can't outwit, outflirt, or outmaneuver.

But when a dashing stranger named Asper crashes the party she's throwing, her carefully organized life begins to veer in dangerous and interesting ways. Elemiel is intrigued by the mysterious trespasser, who is gorgeous and vexing by turns. There's more to Asper than meets the eye, although what does meet the eye is quite pleasant to look at. Elemiel finds their conversation as stimulating as a good fencing match - parry, riposte and thrust. Especially the thrust.

The elf is soon swept into a whirlwind of intrigue, excitement, and lust that will take her from the back alleys of Tin Town to the gardens of the Emerald Palace in a race to stop an ancient evil. All the while, Asper's presence at her side is like throwing lamp oil on the banked fire of Elemiel's passionate spirit.

Adventure after adventure, Elemiel realizes that instead of pushing Asper's buttons, she'd much rather be undoing them. She might not think she's ready for love, but the enchanting elf has a feeling her heart won't leave her much of a choice in the matter.

Content Warning: This is a work of erotic romance, set in a high-fantasy world of elves, magic, monsters and splendor. This book does not fade to black when things get steamy - rather the opposite, in fact. Elemiel is an elf, after all, and the people of the sylvan glades are not known for their inhibitions...
