Enemies-to-lovers doesn't get more high stakes than a witch and a witch hunter falling in love in bestselling author Kristen Ciccarelli's latest romantic fantasy.
On the night Rune’s life changed forever, blood ran in the streets. Now, in the aftermath of a devastating revolution, witches have been diminished from powerful rulers to outcasts ruthlessly hunted due to their waning magic, and Rune must hide what she is.

When a rescue goes wrong, she decides to throw the witch hunters off her scent and gain the intel she desperately needs by courting the handsome Gideon Sharpe – a notorious and unforgiving witch hunter loyal to the revolution – who she can't help but find herself falling for.
Gideon loathes the decadence and superficiality Rune represents, but when he learns the Crimson Moth has been using Rune’s merchant ships to smuggle renegade witches out of the republic, he inserts himself into her social circles by pretending to court her right back. He soon realizes that beneath her beauty and shallow façade, is someone fiercely intelligent and tender who feels like his perfect match. Except, what if she’s the very villain he’s been hunting?

Upír z partaje
Komunismus ustupuje krvelačnému kapitalismu, což ale vůbec neznamená, že je najednou všechno skvělé. Byl to tak dobrý plán, co se mohlo stát?! Měly být zisky z vyšroubovaných norem dovolené v Bulharsku. Mělo být vykořisťování a pobízení dělnické třídy bičem v ruce vypaseného buržousta s doutníkem v zubech. Mělo být tak hezky. Mělo, ale ono se to... Upíři prožívají hromadu traumat: nejdříve je zaměstnavatel posílá na dovolenou. Jak je známo, nejhorší na rekreaci je to, že není co na práci. A bez práce člověk hloupne. Upír také, protože i upíři jsou lidé, jen o něco mrtvější. Následně drátovna krachuje, navzdory skvělému záchrannému plánu, který měl rozhodným a vítězným krokem přivést pokulhávající podnik do krvelačného kapitalismu. A zase – nejhorší na tom, že nemáte práci, je to, že není nic na práci. Možná kvůli těmto špatným zážitkům nemají oba upíři vůči bývalým estébákům tolik trpělivosti jako dřív. Vůbec je nová realita tak nějak… překvapivě podobná té staré. Inu, kapitalismus už viditelně dorazil, ale kapitalisty zapomněli dovézt.
