The sensational enemies-to-lovers romantasy debut following the heir to a fantasy kingdom, and the seductive spirit sent to claim her soul. 'I've seen monsters, Nizzara, and you are not one of them. A little beast maybe, but not a monster.' Nizzara has always been able to perceive spirits better than the average caster. When she enters a deadly tournament to end her betrothal, she's determined to win without succumbing to the addictive spirit magic she channels or taking a life in the duel ring. Finding herself outmatched, Nizzara must face her fear of power and team up with Dagen - an enemy who is half-ghost and all charm - to survive the tournament. Dagen, the last King of Zarr, was killed by Nizzara's father ten years ago. Now a half-ghost - able to phase between his human and spirit form - he is stuck in another realm, hunting wretched souls. When his keeper offers him a chance to reclaim his freedom in exchange for Nizzara's soul, Dagen takes the deal. There's only one catch: she must freely give it to him by the tournament's end or his own soul is forfeit. Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and The Serpent and the Wings of Night, Vesselless is a spellbinding fantasy of magic and intrigue - and a tantalizing slow burn that will have you hooked until the very last page.

I'm also a summoner of demons, which comes in handy now that I work on a task force that deals with supernatural or paranormal crimes. My partners, Ryan and Zack, are attractive and smart FBI agents, but they're not summoners, which sometimes makes it tough for them to understand what I'm dealing with. To complicate things even more, I managed to get myself into a 'situation' with one of the most powerful of demons--Demon Lord Rhyzkahl--who, in exchange for saving Ryan's life, struck a bargain with me that definitely works better for him. It doesn't help that this beautiful Demon Lord finds me attractive--something Ryan doesn't appreciate. And I know Rhyzkahl has something on Ryan, but so far, I can't find out what. Meanwhile, I'm trying to solve a string of murders that are somehow tied together by money, sex, rock music and...mud. But how can I concentrate on the case when I'm not sure who--or what--my partners are?"--P. [4] of cover.
