Heart Stings

Heart stings can be the most dangerous wounds of all . . .

Lorelei Parker has had plenty of ＂heart stings＂ in her life-moments that are both happy and sad. With her grandmother’s recent marriage, Lorelei has had far more good times than bad lately.

That all changes when a ruthless Ashland underworld boss starts threatening her, but Lorelei is determined to figure out why the other crime boss is so interested in her thriving business. She vows to use her elemental Ice and metal magic to do whatever it takes to defend herself and her family.

Also in the mix is the mercurial Hugh Tucker. Lorelei doesn’t know what the vampire is up to, or if he’s a friend or an enemy. Tucker might even be something else, something more-if Lorelei can stay alive long enough to figure out whose side he’s really on . . .

This book also includes Winter’s Web, a Gin Blanco novella in the Elemental Assassin urban fantasy series.
