One warrior driven by an oath he will give his life to fulfill. Another tormented by his love for the woman he failed. Haunted by loss, each warrior is consumed by his relentless quest for redemption. Alone, each will fail. But when Calydon warrior Gabe Watson and mage Vladimir Hawkings team up to cross over into the demon realm to hunt down those who matter most, they finally have a chance to change the past ...until they encounter two bold, sensual women who hold the key to everything that matters to them...brave, independent women who want nothing to do with them. Sophie Flanagan has no memory of her life before she was kidnapped by demons, including how she got the wedding band that burns on her hand. Only her unbreakable friendship with half-demon healer, Maria Souvaine, has enabled her to survive. The two sisters are caught in a desperate battle against a threat so powerful it will destroy them forever. When two fierce, towering warriors invade the demon realm, Sophie and Maria are thrust into a chaotic spiral of lust, escalating peril, and...for the first time in centuries...hope. Will the passion and danger that ignites cause the final destruction of all that matters...or finally free them all from the deadly shadows that grip them so tightly? *All books in the Order of the Blade series are standalone, but the chronological order is as follows: Darkness Awakened Darkness Seduced Darkness Surrendered Forever in Darkness Darkness Reborn Darkness Arisen Darkness Unleashed Inferno of Darkness Darkness Possessed Shadows of Darkness Hunt the Darkness Darkness Revealed (2017) ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Hailed by J.R.
