Talented portrait artist Jade has given up art school to care for her chronically ill sister. Her life takes a startling turn when she's given a malachite crystal and somehow manages to free Malach, the tormented warrior trapped inside.
Malach's first bonding attempt failed. He's vowed to end his own life rather than endure such punishment again. So the last person he trusts to complete the bond and unravel the curse is this inexperienced young woman. But Jade is determined to save Malach from himself. He believes himself incapable falling in love again? No problem. Jade begs her aunt to cast a temporary love spell over herself and Malach to fool the Crystal Guardian and fulfill the terms of the bond. And then Jade's ordered world comes crashing down around her ears. Her sister needs a kidney transplant... and Malach's first love is still alive and well.
"I recently ran across The Crystal Warrior, read it and had to download and read the next two books the same weekend. I just LOVED them. Thank you for linking the books--that makes them even better."
"Malachite is likeable, sexy, and sufficiently alpha without being insufferable."
"After reading the previous two stories, I was looking forward to this one. Was not disappointed in the least, wonderful story with great characters! So happy for Malach and Jade that I was smiling and chuckling."
