Serpent Dove
.
Bound as one to love, honor, or burn.
Two years ago, Louise le Blanc fled her coven and took shelter in the city of Cesarine, forsaking all magic and living off whatever she could steal. There, witches like Lou are hunted. They are feared. And they are burned.
Sworn to the Church as a Chasseur, Reid Diggory has lived his life by one principle: thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. His path was never meant to cross with Lou’s, but a wicked stunt forces them into an impossible union—holy matrimony.
The war between witches and Church is an ancient one, and Lou’s most dangerous enemies bring a fate worse than fire. Unable to ignore her growing feelings, yet powerless to change what she is, a choice must be made. And love makes fools of us all.
درباره کتاب Serpent Dove
دو سال پیش، لوئیز لو بلان از عهد خود فرار کرد و در شهر سزارین پناه گرفت و تمام جادو را رها کرد و از هر چیزی که میدزدید زندگی کرد. در آنجا جادوگرانی مانند لو شکار می شوند. آنها ترسیده اند. و سوخته اند.
رید دیگوری که به عنوان یک تعقیب کننده به کلیسا سوگند خورده است، زندگی خود را بر اساس یک اصل سپری کرده است: برای زنده ماندن از جادوگر رنج نبرید. مسیر او هرگز قرار نبود با لو تلاقی کند، اما یک شیرین کاری شرورانه آنها را مجبور به یک اتحاد غیرممکن – ازدواج مقدس می کند.
جنگ بین جادوگران و کلیسا یک جنگ باستانی است و خطرناک ترین دشمنان لو سرنوشتی بدتر از آتش به ارمغان می آورند. ناتوان از نادیده گرفتن احساسات در حال رشد خود، در عین حال ناتوان در تغییر آنچه که هست، باید یک انتخاب کرد. و عشق همه ما را احمق می کند.
about Shelby Mahurin
Shelby Mahurin grew up on a small farm in rural Indiana, where sticks became wands and cows became dragons. Her rampant imagination didn’t fade with age, so she continues to play make-believe every day—with words now instead of cows. When not writing, Shelby watches the Office and obsesses over her Twitter feed. She still lives near that childhood farm with her very tall husband, semi-feral toddlers, two dogs, and one cat.
Shelby’s favorite books include A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas, Uprooted by Naomi Novik, The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, and, of course, Harry Potter.
Her debut novel, SERPENT & DOVE, will release from Harper Teen in Fall 2019, with a sequel to come the following year. She is represented by Sarah Landis of Sterling Lord Literistic.
