It's been six weeks since Andee Bochs consumed the magic of an Ancient and dropped his shriveled, thousand-year-old body at her feet.
No matter that he'd tried to kill her first-her shadow magic terrifies her. She doesn't understand it. She can't always control it. But worst of all, the power comes from a monster in her soul who doesn't like his hostess.
When her scientist friend, Mac, needs a bodyguard while he travels to the Texhoma Desert, Andee welcomes the distraction. Bonus, there are shadow mages there who can help her wield magic like a pro instead of a toddler with a light-up sword. But Andee's problems only multiply in the desert, and the mages are less than helpful. One of them gets into her head-literally. She wakes up in strange places, and her typical nightmares contain a new dialogue that chills her to the toes of her fire frog boots. A worried Mac calls in the man Andee prefers to avoid, Josiah Hightower.
Andee has declared the sexy thunderbird off limits, but her body has other ideas and she likes how it thinks. Josiah's magic is meant to battle her shadow monster. They are natural enemies. Though he's vowed not to use his power against her, Andee may never know Josiah's heart, because the next time she loses control will be her last.
