Assassin's Mercy - Garcia, Lauren L.

. .

Résumé :
Need a mage killed? Verve's got you covered. As a member of the holy order of Atal's Chosen, Verve lives by the edge of her hematite blade. Trained from childhood to stand tall against the warring mage clans, Verve won't let anyone else's family die at magic's cruel hands. So when Verve's patron tasks her with taking out a notorious mage leader, she knows her skills are up to the challenge. Sure enough, Verve lands a cover-job right in the heart of her target's territory. The coin's not great, but protecting the locals makes for the perfect camouflage while she hunts for her true target. What's more, the handsome local barkeep Alem seems to know more than he's letting on about the mage she's looking for. Against all common sense, Verve discovers a cause worth fighting for in the village. But living by the blade means dying by it too, and when Verve's powerful patron learns of the life she's found and her growing change of heart, she gives Verve an ultimatum: Kill the mage or be hunted by her own fellow Chosen. Verve is forced to choose a side or risk losing her new found family, the life she didn't know she wanted... and a man she didn't know she could love. The only way out of this mess is to die... or find magic of her own. Step into the breathtaking world of magic and mayhem that is the Chaos Moon LGBTQ+ fantasy romance series. But beware: if you love badass bi heroines, rivals to lovers, and slow-burn steamy romances, Assassin's Mercy will heal your heart and become your new obsession. Don't say you weren't warned....

Biographie:
Lauren finds Real Life overrated, and has always preferred to inhabit alternate realities, both self-created and created by others. However, after being burned by certain fandoms one too many times, Lauren decided to focus her reality escape attempts on her own creations. She's much happier now, although she still enjoys fandoms - in small doses. A believer in love, hope, compassion, and similar squishy ideals, Lauren endeavors to create stories that both gut-punch and elevate her readers. Emotional rollercoasters are what make fiction fun, after all. When she's not avoiding Real Life responsibilities, Lauren enjoys dancing at music festivals, spending time in nature, and tending to her cat's every whim. She lives in North Florida with her partner and assorted furred critters, but can be found online at laloga.com
