"A charming historical fantasy with a tender love story at its core, from the author of Unnatural Magic. Hard-drinking petty thief Dellaria Wells is down on her luck in the city of Leiscourt--again. Then she sees a want ad for a female bodyguard, and she fast-talks her way into the high-paying job. Along with a team of other women, she's meant to protect a rich young lady from mysterious assassins. At first Delly thinks the danger is exaggerated, but a series of attacks shows there's much to fear. Then she begins to fall for Winn, one of the other bodyguards, and the women team up against a mysterious, magical foe who seems to have allies everywhere"-- Provided by publisher.

What the world needs now submitted by KimB on June 17, 2022, 12:11am The book world needs more queer witches and trolls. In this universe, they are fairly common. Plus, I love so many other things about the world that this author built.
Hooray for well-written women! submitted by himaja2 on June 20, 2022, 3:33pm At last. A fantasy novel ft. complex, flawed, messy women characters that seem to pop right off the page! Such a fun, refreshing read.
