Publisher's Synopsis
Bound to each other by unexpected magic...
Hauled out of bed by a brutish soldier and tossed into a stone cell, the last thing Alena expects is to come face to face with wealthy businessman Orpheus. The rake almost tricked her into his bed once and is the one man she's tried to avoid ever since. To her utter dismay, she learns he's her new partner in a forced mission: to acquire a celestial weapon, one protected by the gods.
Orpheus never expected to meet anyone like Alena, let alone to deceive her. Could their immediate connection be due to a common secret-ancestral magic? To win this game of the gods thrust upon them, he'll have to earn her trust again and heal old wounds... before it's too late.
The biggest surprise for both of them? Surviving their quest is just the beginning. Together, they have the potential to build a dynasty of powerful witches and wizards. All it will take is a book, a tree, and a dragon.
