Lauryl Coedil is a Daughter of the Night, a warrior woman known to those who fear her as a Hell-Hag. A ruthless bounty hunter whose sword is even quicker than her sharp tongue. When she goes after a quarry, he is as good as caught. Hired to find the missing son of King Barren Aeolian, Laird of the Faolchúnna, she’ll let nothing stand in her way. Prince Glade Aeolian is in one hell of a sorry predicament. Married to a woman who despises him, he is locked in her dungeon and hidden from his family who are desperately trying to find him. When he is rescued from certain death at the hands of his dangerous spouse, he finds himself staring into the sultry eyes of a woman warrior whose hands he’d love to have all over him.
