Book Description:

 

Just one spell will change their fates…

 

Cordelia is a pawn of House Dorchada—a notorious noble family comprised of thieves, assassins and dark wizards. Desperate to avoid their poisonous politics, Cordelia plotted her escape for years, but her carefully laid plans are jeopardized when her father commands her to marry an aged lord of Frostever.

 

With only a few short months left before her wedding, Cordelia’s salvation hinges on creating a Sephra’s Tear—a forbidden amulet that causes overwhelming lust in its victim. A black market buyer promises a life-changing amount of coin as payment for the Tear, but being caught creating it carries a death sentence.

 

Two wizards are needed to produce the passion to fuel the erotic spell, so Cordelia recruits the aid of peasant wizard Nathaniel Ravenwood. Nathaniel has long denied his desire for the beautiful Cordelia. As a noblewoman and a Dorchada she is as dangerous to Nathaniel as a viper, but the fortune she offers is a temptation he can't refuse.

 

Dealing in dark magic comes with a price, and Cordelia and Nathaniel risk losing their freedom—and their hearts. Their fates depend on the one spell that will free them, or destroy them.

The Sephra's Tear is a fast paced, exciting read. It follows Cordelia, mage and daughter to a family of dark wizards. Abused by her family and forbidden to use her magic, her plans to run away are sped up when her father sells her as a magical broodmare to an elderly nobleman. With the help of fellow mage, Nathaniel, Cordelia plans to use forbidden magic in order to buy her way clear, but things don't necessarily run to plan.

I loved this book. The main character was feisty, cunning, yet vulnerable. She wasn't a superwoman, just a woman who wished to be free. Her relationship with her lover, Nathaniel and her half sister Cara, were well written as was her dealings with her cousin Marcus. Unlike most heroines in fiction, she isn't a prissy virgin and is quite open about her previous lovers and I loved that about her.

Action packed and a little steamy, Robin Bacher has created an exquisite tale of fantasy, dark magic and seduction.
