Fire Marked

Ten years as an assassin did not prepare me for customer service. Once I was called the strongest fire elemental in a generation. All that got me was sentenced to serve as a supernatural assassin for a crime I didn’t commit. Now that my name’s been cleared, the powers-that-be cut me loose. Their only rule? Keep my head down and leave hits to other Shadows.

Sinking my blood money into a magic shop, I try to be a good little witch. I run my shop, join a geriatric coven, teach fire hula hooping classes on the side, and adopt a klepto packrat as my familiar. Avoiding the golden-eyed lone wolf charged with keeping me in line is harder. And ignoring the demons infesting Kansas City? Impossible.

When human bodies turn up with veins full of the same blood additive that landed me my ten-year sentence, I can’t afford to sit on the sidelines. Going rogue risks my newfound freedom. But the alternative is a city overrun with demons and Nectar-addicted vampires in a feeding frenzy. It’ll take every skill I learned as a Shadow to take down the syndicate and the temptation demon behind it.

But if customer service has taught me one lesson, it’s how to do anything with a smile.
