ril. Kahlen è una sirena, una meravigliosa e pericolosa creatura al servizio dell'Oceano. Ma non è sempre stato così. C'è stato un tempo in cui Kahlen era soltanto una ragazza come tutte le altre. Poi, un giorno, mentre stava annegando, l'Oceano l'ha salvata e le ha regalato una seconda possibilità. Anche se a un prezzo terribile. Per ripagare il suo debito, Kahlen infatti ha dovuto rinunciare a una vita normale e ai suoi sogni, primo fra tutti quello di amare ed essere amata, per attirare in acque mortali, con il suo canto letale e ammaliatore, altri esseri umani. Per cento anni. Solo allo scadere di questo tempo, potrà finalmente tornare a parlare, ridere e vivere liberamente. Fino ad allora una sua parola sarà sufficiente a uccidere un uomo. Così, quando un giorno incontra Akinli, Kahlen sa bene che legarsi a lui è l'errore peggiore che possa fare. Innamorarsi di un essere umano infrange tutte le regole dell'Oceano. Ma Akinli, gentile, premuroso e bellissimo, è il ragazzo che ha sempre sognato. Quanto sarà disposta a rischiare per seguire il suo cuore?

Decadent Rome in the Dark Ages is mired in a crumbling grandeur. Into the Eternal City comes Regeane, a beautiful young woman distantly related through her dead mother to Charlemagne. Regeane's regal blood renders her an unwilling pawn in the struggle for political power. But unknown to those plotting her destiny, the blood she has inherited from her murdered father gives her preternatural agility and strength, primal memories extending back thousands of years and senses so keen they can pierce the veil of death itself. Regeane is a shapeshifter, woman and wolf, hunter and hunted.451p. Book
