The second and final book in the sexy The First Witch series with an HEA ending. My name is Freyja. I will soon cease to exist unless I acquire a cure for my curse from the fey in the twilight realm. The fey empress will kill me if she learns that I'm an abomination--a Nephilim. And I'm not just the spawn of any angel, but the monstrous angel king she beheaded. The smoking-hot, formidable Dragonian prince, my abductor, knows nothing about my curse, or that I am his fated mate he is desperately searching for--The First Witch. As we draw close to the fey territory, a horde of my father's former sentinels captures me. They plan to harvest my magic and drain me to resurrect the High Lord of All Angels--my evil grandfather. The prince comes for me and saves me from the horrific fate, yet he still has to choose either the First Witch or me as the wolf girl. Though his passion for me burns hotter than flame, a Dragonian never strays from a decided course. He believes if he picks me, he'll lose his future mate and the great kingdom she's meant to bring him. He doesn't know the witch and the wolf girl are one and the same. If he chooses the witch instead of me--hot, fresh, eager and right in front of him--he'll lose both.

A punishment from Odin for refusing to give him knowledge of the future, the fire leaves Angrboda injured and powerless, and she flees into the farthest reaches of a remote forest. There she is found by a man who reveals himself to be Loki, and her initial distrust of him grows reluctantly into a deep and abiding love. Their union produces three unusual children, each with a secret destiny, who she is keen to raise at the edge of the world, safely hidden from Odin's all-seeing eye. But as Angrboda slowly recovers her prophetic powers, she learns that her blissful life - and possibly all of existence - is in danger. Angrboda must choose whether she'll accept the fate that she's foreseen for her beloved family...or rise to remake their future. From the most ancient of tales, this novel forges a story of love, loss and hope for the modern age."--Provided by publisher.

A young woman navigates a web of politics, assassination attempts, and romance in the first book of a new series set in the world of the House Witch trilogy. Katarina Ashowan was not made for courtly life. Sure, her father is the famous house witch of Daxaria so she was raised among majestic castles, proper manners, and royal expectations. But Kat is also a mutated witch whose power aligns predominantly with fire. She's more comfortable riding horses or learning to fight than she is making polite conversation and wearing fancy dresses. Which is why her upcoming assignment--serving her best friend, Alina, the soon-to-be crowned Troivackian queen--is anything but ideal. Even worse, Kat is forced to make the long journey from Daxaria to Troivack with Alina's extremely irksome brother, Eric, the crown prince of Daxaria. Kat and the formerly missing prince are constantly at each other's throats--until, that is, they begin to form an unexpected kinship . . . with perhaps something more flickering beneath the surface. Now Kat must contend with the strictures of Troivackian court, mysterious assassination attempts, and her unsettling new feelings for Eric, all as her fiery powers are becoming harder and harder to control. In this fast-paced, humorous, and romantic start to the Burning Witch trilogy, the same charming magical mayhem that wooed readers of the House Witch series gets a brightly burning new star in Katarina Ashowan. The first volume of a new spin-off of the hit romantic-fantasy series that has more than a million views on Royal Road--now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!
