The Princess and the Shadow Spy
A Swashbuckling Fantasy Romance of Magic, Betrayal, and Desire

Shayera Starwind is a half-elven princess with a legendary bloodline, a talent for swordplay, and no intention of returning to the royal duties waiting in Highwind. Hidden beneath a false name in the lawless City of Ravens, she earns her freedom by humiliating overconfident challengers in tavern duels.
Then Mirek beats her at her own game.
The handsome stranger is not merely a clever swordsman. He is a sorcerer and imperial spy from the nation Shayera was raised to distrust. His mission should make them enemies, but he carries a warning neither can ignore: a survivor of the feared Senosi order may possess an ancient relic capable of summoning demons.
Their search takes them from crowded taverns to ruined fortresses and into a conspiracy involving imperial agents, magical assassins, forbidden artifacts, and loyalties divided between family and conscience.
Shayera is bold, powerful, and determined to control her own destiny. Mirek is intelligent, conflicted, and far less certain of his cause than he pretends. Every secret they uncover makes their alliance more dangerous, while every encounter makes their attraction harder to resist.
Explicit, witty, and action-filled, The Princess and the Shadow Spy is a series-opening adult fantasy romance featuring a sword-wielding half-elf princess, a shadow-magic spy, enemies-to-allies tension, political intrigue, demon magic, betrayal, and a dramatic cliffhanger.
