Description:
Lyn
C. Johanson continues her scorching Witch World series with a new
story of a human fighting to survive in Hell, and a dangerous beauty
who might cost him his soul.
AN
EXQUISITE PUNISHER LIVING ON BORROWED TIME…
Desiree
ruled a domain swarming with the worst sinners ever to walk on Earth,
until her dual nature became too dangerous for the Demon Council to
ignore. Now banished, she finds herself intrigued by an enigma she
encounters—a decent soul in the land of rotten scum.
A
FIGHTER DOOMED TO HELL…
To
save his newborn nephews, Ciaran sacrificed his life to spend
eternity in the Underworld. Yet becoming a plaything to be used and
abused is a fate he is determined to avoid.
A
PASSION FORGED IN FIRE…
Temptation
stokes the flames in both their hearts and bodies, but when faced
with the reality of their circumstances, those flames might burn them
both to ash. For in a demon world defined by supernatural abilities,
a human must remain a slave, and she—free from any weakness her
enemies might take advantage of.
Please
note that although Forged in Fire can be read as a stand-alone story,
I would strongly recommend reading Till Death and Beyond first, as
the world builds from one book to another. Available on Amazon
Excerpt:
“Bow
before your master!” One of the guards spat an order.
“I
bow before no one,” Ciaran muttered without turning. That was one
thing he refused to do. Ever. No matter how many whips sliced his
flesh.
Instantly,
he felt a fierce blow to his inner knee. His leg bent, and he went
down. Ciaran gritted his teeth at the impact with the hard floor, and
before the guard could deliver another blow, grabbed for the nearest
weapon.
Suddenly
fire flashed through the space. As one, the guards sank to the
ground, bowing their heads.
“Enough!”
Huge eyes appeared in the air, above them.
Ciaran
frowned. Stood up.
The
eyes narrowed. Green flames consumed the irises, and for a second he
thought the room would catch fire.
“Out!”
A sharp order rang out, and was followed before the echo subsided.
The
moment Ciaran was left alone, shadows began swirling, the eyes got
smaller, until a figure stepped out of the darkness. He thought he
was prepared for whatever was coming. A two-headed ogre wouldn’t
have surprised him, but when the shadows dissipated, and his eyes
locked with those of the creature he’d been summoned by, he forgot
whatever it was he wanted to say.
Her
eyes were no longer round, but almond-shaped, slightly tilted
downward toward her straight but narrow nose. Those eyes missed
nothing—and right now, they were focused on him. Not burning, but
the way her irises caught the glare of light, it appeared to glow
with a cat-like luster.
In
vibrant copper-red, the strands that escaped her knee-length braid
danced like flames against her flawless, porcelain skin, conjuring up
an image of a fragile, ethereal beauty.
One
look at her, and Ciaran knew there was nothing fragile about her. She
radiated power, and he had no trouble seeing why the guards bowed
before her. Why everyone was afraid to even mention her name. The raw
energy flowing around her was nothing he’d ever experienced. No
demon he’d met possessed a smidgeon of it.
He
was screwed, he concluded, determined to get this over with as
quickly as possible.
“What
do you want from me?” he demanded, finally coming to his senses.
She
approached, no hesitation in her lithe, tall body. It moved with
hypnotizing grace, accentuated by her simple leather pants and top
that hugged her like a second skin. If he thought she had power
before, it was nothing compared with the sizzle of energy that shot
through him when she stretched out her hand, and gently touched his
cheek.
It
took everything he had to keep his body stone-still. He dared not
even breathe. He felt if he did, she could actually bring him to his
knees. And as seconds ticked by, her lips curled into a lazy smile,
transforming her face from beautiful to stunning. She was a vision—a
vision he expected to morph into a nightmare at any moment.
That’s
when she whispered, “I want to play.”
