Haevyn — Darcy Abriel

Duty and honor demand the ultimate sacrifice.

Everyone has their poison. For Haevyn Briena, it's her inability to resist a dare. This time it's a challenge from her friend and lover, Grisha, to sneak into the popular, illegal cage fights that always end in all-male orgies. Eagerly she snaps up the gauntlet, unaware that she will end the night forever changed.

When expatriate humanotic warrior Entreus locks eyes with Haevyn at the sex-fueled event, he is instantly captivated. Despite a duty that binds him to an exiled malevolent sorcerer, he seeks her out in a shattering, illuminating encounter.

Grisha's plan is in motion -- to bring both his warrior lovers together and heal their scarred souls with a combined passion that he alone cannot provide. But Haevyn's tormented past refuses to die. And Entreus will not rest until the Core that ruined his life is destroyed.

Amid ever-tangling emotions and a brutal plot to take over the city, the three lovers walk a tightrope that could be cut at any moment. Fighting for justice, bound by duty…and a love that could alter the foundations of their world.
