Synopsis
Lunar witch Serafina Cimmerian never dreamed her life could be anything other than misery and pain. Enter three dhampirs who would burn the world down with a single word from their beloved. Seri and her husbands couldn’t be happier at Evermere, but her stepmother isn’t about to let her claim a future full of love and laughter. Enter Amabel and Eluned, twin menaces who each have their own ideas about how to show Seri where she truly belongs: On her belly at their feet. Too bad they don’t know the Cimmerians aren’t only monster hunters: They’re monsters themselves. Now Arabesque’s daughters are about to find out what happens when you go walking into the monsters’ den looking for trouble.
