Burning Hope

Nero is a madman and a murderer…and now Hope belongs to him.

Hope's life as an enslaved priestess in the Temple of Hera is all she has ever known. Born to slavery and the golden chain she wears around her neck, very little ever came as a surprise. But when she meets Nero, the only thing she can trust is that everything is about to change. Bought by a man who is unpredictable at best and a madman at worst, she has to be careful not to get burned.

Having been spurned by the woman he thought he loved, Nero Finch, Cardinal of the South Wind Dominion, believed he had lost all hope. Rejected, he decides to do the one thing he never does—pray. But the gods are fickle, and the priestess at the temple is frustratingly immune to his usual charms.

Now, they can only pray that love really is blind.

Authors Note:
Each book in The Cardinal Winds stands on its own. You do not need to have read the other books to enjoy this story.

This book is what I consider to be a villain romance. My male characters are often not very kind or gentle. This story has a HEA, but it may be a tough ride getting there. This story has mature themes and content.
