From author Aurora Hunter comes a romantic light science fiction, enemies-to-lovers romance about an apprentice and the mentor she schools.

My first official assignment has one major issue—his name is Thevon Tallen.

He’s the youngest Dark Lord ever to lead the Defenses Circle.

Dark.

Deadly.

Dangerous.

The man is hated as much as he’s feared—not only by the Coalition enemy, but by his own people as well.

When I overhear a plot to end his life, I know I should mind my own business. But hey, where’s the fun in that?

Corina Berrek needs a mentor, and she refuses to take “no” for an answer.

Born and raised in times of war, she rebuffs the notion of being a mere sorceress. And she’ll stop at nothing to earn her Dark Lady title.

Driven.

Determined.

Deliciously Desirable.

This exotic beauty craves recognition and respect.

Eyes on the coveted rank, she’ll stop at nothing to reach her goal.

Without a mentor, the girl won’t pass the gruesome trials. She’s bound to meet her end...possibly by my hands if I don’t keep my distance.

Overtaken by our feelings, we can’t ignore the growing, mutual attraction.

A single tantalizing touch makes our hearts flutter.

A second-chance meeting leaves us both yearning for so much more.

A triple threat binds us together, and a forbidden promise changes our lives forever.

Only one question remains: can we defeat fate and build a life together?

Or will the mark she carries bring destruction raining down around us, turning all of our dreams into ashes?

This is a steamy listen for ages 18+.
