With
great power, comes great responsibility. That’s something Maya Thibodeau has
found out the hard way.
Maya
thought she had it all. She had defeated the man that sought to destroy
everything she held dear and in the process, found the love of her life and
saved her best friend. However, that was before the Loas decided to meddle in
her life. If only she hadn’t signed that contract...
Now,
she finds herself whisked away to the Land of the Dead and facing her own
impending nuptials to the Baron Samedi.
Far
from home and anything familiar, she must navigate the muddy waters of royal
politics among those who would love nothing more than to see her fail. As if
that weren’t hard enough, she must do it all while finding the Baron’s missing
wife and battling the growing seed of darkness left by Drake.
The
clock is ticking.
Only
one thing is certain. War is coming and she will decide who wins and who
loses…But, which side will she be on?

Excerpt:
“I
can’t do it again. I can’t watch you walk away. I’m not strong enough. So when
you tell me you’re not going back I need you to mean it because I won’t let go
again.”
“Hello
my child,” she said, stepping towards me. The voice was familiar, like something
from a dream and it was distinctly different from the Loa’s. “You’ve grown up
and become everything we ever hoped you would.”
“Be
careful and remember, whatever you do, don’t be fooled by a pretty face and a
few charming words. They all have that quick wit that will have you upside down
and backwards before you can utter an objection.” She moved in and pressed a
tender kiss to my temple and squeezed my arms much like a grandmother would.
“Find Yansa. She’ll have the answers you seek,” the woman whispered into my ear
low enough that only I could hear before pulling away.
“Well,
as always, it’s been such a pleasure, Marie.” Samedi’s sarcasm wasn’t lost on
either of us.
Erzulie-Marie
stepped back to her starting location in front of the altar. “I’m sorry for all
you’ve had to endure and for all of the suffering yet to come. I hope one day
you will understand and grant me forgiveness, ma belle.” Her head fell back and
Erzulie twitched a few times before the glowing raven exploded forth from her
chest and disappeared into thin air.
