Her calm life spirals into chaos when her half-brother threatens to expose her darkest secrets and demands the powerful amulet her father left her.

As they navigate threats from the dangerous underbelly of the city, the line between duty and desire blurs.Can Alix save Ellia and fight his deep-rooted prejudices against the fae? Can Ellia trust Alix, without giving up her hard-won independence?The Amulet's Embrace is a slow burn, cozy fantasy romance with spice. If you like hunky bodyguards and grumpy-sunshine romance in a gaslamp fantasy realm with cobblestone streets, horse carriages, and magic, you'll love this first book in the Sageport Series. Each book in the series can be read as a standalone romance, but it's best to read them in order for maximum enjoyment. Steamy but not dark.
