Book: Wicked Apprentice
Author: Madeline Iva
Genre: Fantasy Magic Romance
#WickedApprenticeRelease
Zephyr, apprentice of magical arts, is
having a really bad day. Under orders to capture an uncanny creature
for her mistress’s latest spell, she chains up a tall, gorgeous elf
in a decaying castle only to find out he's really a wizard with
potent powers over human women. Uh-oh.
Theo has suffered heartbreak and
betrayal more than once. He's got a plan to escape, and when he does,
he's taking the curvy little apprentice with him. Her seductive
curiosity about all things elvish makes his heart race, driving him
into a sexual frenzy. He’s vowed never to unleash his powers of
enchantment upon a human woman—yet while she kisses and teases him,
longing for an elf romance, his fae side is slipping out of control.
Their world overturns when Zephyr
unleashes a curse involving two magic rings. Under its spell, she
becomes a mighty sorceress while the elf-wizard who loves her becomes
her apprentice. As Zephyr works to turn the brooding, mistrustful elf
into the hero the people need, Theo must find a way to contain
Zephyr’s new powers before her wild magic destroys them all.
Madeline Iva’s magic romance fantasy
is chock full of wizards and sorcerers. It will enchant readers who
love castle romances, all things elvish, and can-do heroines.
He looked like Satan dipped in ice. A
noble forehead fought for dominance over his lush, sensuous lips. The
lips won. Long beams of light fell about his pale skin and the black
wings of his eyebrows. She checked the ears again. They were less
pointy than Spock, yet pointier than your average geeky human. Good
god, he was an elf! She was agog to see what Hulgetta wanted with
him.
Dragging her eyes away, she looked up
at all his books. From one end of the study to the other, the tall
bookshelves followed the curve of the wall. The books gave off a
silent persistent energy, a low pulse of magic, covering her in goose
bumps. She had lust in her heart.
So many magic books, so little time.
Yet orders were orders. She picked up
his feet and began dragging him across the room. His arms swept up
over his head as she pulled him along to the green door. She tried
not to look at the open books out on the tables. Thou shalt not
covet another’s magical books. Okay, well, just one. She hung
over it for a second trying to read the letters. It sang to her
nerves like a soprano choir hitting the high notes in an opera. Like
being near a celebrity or the President of your country. Like that.
One day I’ll have a room in a tower
like this and read books of magic all day.
Yet how full of briars was her workaday
world. He had looked so slender standing up, yet his bones were
large, and he was much taller than he had seemed clear across the
room. She was and wanted to stop, but the green door was starting to
slowly swing shut. She dug her fingers harder into his pointy leather
boots and gave a mighty pull, bumping his head along the
way. Oops. With a hollow noise, the door behind her shut
and clicked. The low corridor sank back into gloominess, and the
familiar castle stench of wood smoke, boiled animal bones, and damp
straw invaded her nose.
