Ashley I’ve been gifted with a second chance at life, along with magical powers. The catch? I need sex to fuel my powers and a teacher to help me wield them. A wild chemistry sparks between Casek and me. He’d be the perfect teacher if he wasn’t the most brutish, stubborn man I’ve ever met. He makes it impossible to learn. But when I mention learning from anyone else, his Fae eyes blaze with fury. Casek Ashley has no idea of the danger she’s in. She thinks having powers is all fun and games, but she’s not any ordinary Fae. The unique origin of her magic has painted a target on her back. I’ve been ordered to protect her, and I’ll do whatever it takes because Ashley is mine. Whether she knows it or not. **While this book can be read by itself in theory, the majority of the world building and character introduction takes place in the first book of the series, Curse & Craving. It is HIGHLY recommended that you read the book in order!! Author's Note: This story was originally published as part of The Fae Games Series but has been substantially rewritten. This urban fantasy romance novel is for adult audiences.
