Hard Frost

Controlled. Structured. Cold. At twenty-four, Kinan is a child by fae standards. Not that she feels like one. She's spent the last six years working as a mercenary soldier, doing everything from translating to assassinating. The only requirement? To operate within the law, safe in her routines and patterns. So the two-year contract to guard a trade caravan offers the perfect escape. Until everything descends into chaos. Injured, weak, and on the run, she's taken in by a fae family with their own secrets to protect. Her Gift of Prophecy--barely more useful than a parlor trick--cannot shield them from her curse. With tensions mounting and danger imminent, it's now her turn to sacrifice for them. Only this darkness is an evil no one can withstand...
