Book Description
Fae law is clear--Never use magic in the mortal realm. Except that's what I do for a living, and for paying off my student debt. I just couldn't leave it on Aunt Miriam's tired, battered shoulders, not to mention that love spells pay well. And it all worked out just fine--until it didn't, and the Lord of Winter tracked me down. Lysander Nightfrost is a ruthless fae king enforcing millennia old law. I should run for the hills when he appears, but my feet keep rooted in the ground. I can't stop staring at his sharp warrior features, his hair like liquid gold, his ice-blue eyes sending chills all through me. He's here to punish me. But when he learns who I really am, the tides turn. I am what the fire king Xerxes has been searching for since the day my father died, which makes me a powerful weapon in Lysander's hands. One of the ways he can use me is trade me over in exchange for something he wants from Xerxes. I'm trapped, stripped of choices, but not of my will. If I go down, I'll take Lysander's ice-cold heart with me. It's a tough game, but I will either melt it, or drown it at the bottom of the ocean.

When Aneira awakens to find she has been sprited away into the night by none other than the dread witch Baba Yaga, she is faced with a choice: help Baba Yaga find her sisters' magical skins and Aneira can go home to her family or refuse to help and lose her mother and sisters forever. The task is simple. She just has to steal the Lord of Winter’s heart by lulling him to sleep with the Harp of the Seven Winds. Once she has it, all Aneira has to do is lock it in a magic jar Baba Yaga gives her. After that, she’s free to go home.
