Complete Duet. Fire in Stone, part 1: I stole a statue to buy a better future for myself. But when my gargoyle comes to life, can I give him up? Brought to the end of my rope, I steal a statue from a traveling menagerie. The money I’ve been promised for it is supposed to buy me a new start in life. It sounds steal the statue, hand it to the buyer, get paid. But when my precious statue suddenly comes to life, claiming he’s a gargoyle prince who was taken against his will from the magical kingdom in Nerifir, things change drastically. Now, we have the supernatural beings from the menagerie after us, eager to get Elex back, and the local mafia who wish to get their hands on the pricey statue too. Like a true piece of art, Elex is gorgeous, either in flesh or stone. But is he worth risking my life for him? When he takes me higher than I’ve ever been, I realize it’s not just my life I’m risking with him. With Elex, my heart may be in even greater danger, as I have to find the strength to part from him forever. ___________________ Hearts on Fire, part 2: "And that was our tragedy. The life of the man I loved depended on the life of the man I hated so fiercely." Now stolen myself and brought into the world I never planned to come to, I have to try hard to survive. Or die like so many do around me. A war is raging in Dakath, and I don’t belong on either side of it. I can’t trust anyone in the king’s castle, not even Elex. His life is tied to the king, who is the most despicable man among the dragons. The gargoyles at King Edkhar’s Court are stronger, faster, more ruthless than I could ever be. But as the only human in the kingdom where everyone turns to stone at sunset, I may have an advantage still. No one knows what I’m capable of to protect those I love. An incredible power lies inside me—the power of human love.
