Az ellenállhatatlan késztetés, hogy belezúgj az ellenségedbe
A tét nagy, a szerelem tiltott, és a lassan kibontakozó vonzalom komoly szenvedéllyé válik. Amikor Osric Mordauntot, a Fyren Rend elit bérgyilkosát ledönti a lábáról egy olyan betegség, amit még egy jól irányzott tőrdöfés sem old meg, a túléléshez sürgősen szüksége van egy kivételes gyógyítóra… a sors pedig, mert nyilván remek humorérzéke van, pont egy Haelan Rendbeli gyógyítót sodor elé — vagyis egy olyan embert, akinek normál esetben a közelébe sem szabadna mennie.
Aurienne Fairhrim és rendtársai egy gyerekeket sújtó halálos himlőjárvány megfékezéséhez igyekeznek kétségbeesetten pénzhez jutni – olyan kétségbeesetten, hogy amikor Osric betör a főhadiszállásukra, azért, hogy lefizesse Aurienne-t, gyógyítsa meg őt, a nő kénytelen elfogadni az ajánlatát. Időközben Osric és Aurienne munkához látnak, hogy meggyógyítsák a férfit, és annak is a végére járjanak, miért ütötte fel a fejét a himlő, és azon kapják magukat, hogy hevesen tagadják az egymás iránti vonzalmukat – ami pedig csak még tovább tüzeli a köztük lévő szenvedélyt.
The Irresistible Urge to Fall For Your Enemy - Dearly Beloathed 1
A slow burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy featuring a scholarly healer and a gentleman assassin, set in an exquisite fantasy world, perfect for fans of The Love Hypothesis and Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries.
Osric Mordaunt, member of the Fyren Order of assassins, is in dire need of healing. Naturally - such is the grim comedy of fate - the only healer who can help is Aurienne Fairhrim, preeminent scientist, bastion of moral good, and member of an enemy Order.
Aurienne is desperate for funding to heal the sick - so desperate that, when Osric bribes her to help him, she accepts, even if she detests him and everything he stands for.
A forced collaboration ensues: the brilliant Woman in STEM is coerced into working with the PhD in Murders, much to Aurienne's disgust. As Osric and Aurienne work together to heal his illness and investigate the mysterious reoccurrence of a deadly pox, they find themselves ardently denying their attraction, which only fuels the heat between them.
Tropes include:
Enemies-to-lovers
High interaction slow burn
Hypercompetent idiots
He falls first and harder
Slaughter as a love language
Neodolateľná túžba podľahnúť svojmu nepriateľovi
Originálna a neuveriteľne zábavná prvá časť romantickej duológie o nepriateľoch, z ktorých sa stanú milenci, zasadená do jedinečného fantasy sveta. Osric Mordaunt, člen rádu Fyrenov a nájomný vrah naliehavo potrebuje liečenie. Iróniou osudu jedinou osobou, ktorá mu môže pomôcť, je Aurienne Fairhrimová, rešpektovaná vedkyňa, stelesnenie morálky a – členka nepriateľského rádu. Aurienne zúfalo potrebuje peniaze na financovanie výskumu kiahní, ktoré zasiahli ich krajinu a trpia nimi stovky nevinných detí. Keď ju Osric podplatí, súhlasí, že mu pomôže, napriek tomu, že nenávidí všetko, čo predstavuje. Vynútená spolupráca geniálnej vedkyne a profesionálneho zabijaka privedie Aurienne k starým mystickým praktikám, ktoré nemajú s vedou nič spoločné. Osric a Aurienne spolu vyšetrujú opätovný výskyt tajomnej smrtiacej nákazy. Horlivo pri tom popierajú nákazu vzájomnej príťažlivosti, čo len zosilňuje iskrivé napätie, ktoré medzi nimi vládne od prvej chvíle.
