Risa works the docks in the port city of Knockaine, servicing multiple men each night. When she's offered a large sum of money to seduce and slay a particular man, she thinks the job will be easy—until she discovers he's a magically-gifted pirate captain with a suspicious nature. He proves to be much harder to kill than she expected—and worse still, the harder she tries to end him, the more he seems to crave her. (adult fantasy romance, spicy scenes, Dark Rulers Series book 8) Trigger/content warnings may be found in the front matter of the book and on the author's website.
