Publisher's summary

Miriam Feldman is ditching her shapewear and finally letting her magic fly free.

When Miri was a teen, her parents were murdered by magic assassins. These days, her aggressively normal existence as a law librarian at a boring firm has excellent medical insurance and won't get her daughter killed.

But when her bestie, her ride-or-die, gets tangled up with some vampires and goes missing, Miriam unleashes the rare and powerful shadow magic she's kept hidden.

It's heady, liberating—and totally dangerous.

Now in a race against time to save her friend, this single mom is descending into the spiderweb of the secret supernatural community where not knowing the rules is a fast-track to a painful end.

Her guide? A grumpy French wolf shifter with a particular set of skills, a baffling drive to protect Miri at all costs, and the infuriating habit of constantly disagreeing with her. He may mock her To-Do lists, but he's learned firsthand that her shadow magic literally packs a hell of a punch.

The tricky thing about shadows, though, is the past casts a long one, and if Miri isn't careful, those magic assassins will come back for the one who got away—and she'll lose everything.

Featuring a slow burn shifter romance and a smart older heroine, this clever mix of urban fantasy and mystery will take you on a wild ride.

Very bad narration

Great story line. Good character development. The narrator wrecked this for me. The shouting, angry speech made it feel like someone was *itching at me for hours. I can't finish and won't continue with the audible version.

Not For Me

The performance ruined it for me. I may go back and read it in kindle or other format but it was like a reader, not a performer read this. Points of emphasis were just off. I listen to a tremendous number of books as I work.
