Perfect Cruelty -

. .

Résumé :
Her love saved him. His need will destroy them both. Even gods can sin. Veros, the god of magic, has carried that knowledge since the day a mass tragedy split him into two beings: himself, and his brother, Vo'ahn, whose only desire is to consume Veros, his power, and everything he loves. One battle between them is all it would take to destroy Vo'ahn - if Veros can find him. Infiltrating Earth was supposed to be simple. He never expected to collide with Xyla Faire - a college student who can see magic - let alone fall in love with her. When she risks her life to save him during a brief stint as a mortal, Veros moves her to his realm to keep her safe. But what if he's the threat? Whenever Xyla is near, depraved thoughts enter his mind. The need to be worshipped. The need to twist her bones and force her to her knees. Vo'ahn's dark influence. And it's growing. As long as his brother lives, Veros must shield Xyla from both Vo'ahn and himself. But when Xyla goes missing, he'll do whatever it takes to find her. Even if it means giving in to his desires....

In the garden of Idunn, love isn't just gentle, it's a fight for control. Gods, monsters, and humans wage war not just against each other, but against themselves. In Adora Idunn's world, there's as much agony as there is accord. Every touch has its turmoil, and every power its price. When not writing twisted tales of battles and bosoms, Adora brews hot herbal concoctions and weaves fabric with hooks and needles. She's also a casual keyboard enthusiast, and slays dragons with dice once or twice a week....
