Summoner's Dirge — Evelyn Shepherd

Because of the strange tattoos that decorate his body, Damir Rosen has lived a secluded, quiet life on his farm outside of Canaan. But the peace and calm of his daily life is shaken when he finds a broken and half-dead man in his field. Taking a grave risk, Damir heals Balin and discovers a passion he never thought possible in the exotic stranger from another land.

On a mission to kill the king of Pheor when his airship crashes in the mountains, Balin grieves that he'll die before he ever finishes the job. An unexpected angel -- who glows with the strength of the stars -- saves him, though, and now Balin must decide whether remain with the sensual man who brought him back from death or finish the job that could stop a war.?

Tragedy strikes, forcing Balin and Damir onto the run. With the aid of a group of sky pirates, they begin a journey, one Damir only dreamed of ever taking. If Damir can overcome his grief, and learn to trust Balin, they may just be able to uncover the truth behind Damir's healing powers, save the world, and each other in the process.
