Michael's Warrior Book cover

When British rifles go missing on the black market, can two star-crossed young people conjure a little magic to save the empire … and find love?

Birmingham, England, 1816. Xara Aminoff trusts no one. Caught stealing and forced to train as a government agent, the guardian with supernatural talent hates that she owes the crown a year of service. But her stiff reserve is challenged when her first mission involves working with a distractingly handsome man interested in more than her martial talent.

Michael Ramsey wants out. Desperate to leave the espionage game behind, the world-class spy is shocked when his frantic call for aid yields a gorgeous girl who fights like a tiger. And when she agrees to help him come in from the cold, he strives to return the favor by opening her jaded eyes to joy.

Certain her budding feelings for the rugged secret agent will doom her, Xara struggles to hold him at arm’s length as they pursue their dangerous assignment. And though Michael thwarts attempts on both their lives, he fears he’ll never crack the iron wall she’s built between them.

Can this perfect pair untangle an arcane conspiracy and fall for love’s spell?
