A lord in danger. A magician in turmoil. A snowball in hell.Exiled to China for twenty years, Lucien Vaudrey never planned to return to England. But with the mysterious deaths of his father and brother, it seems the new Lord Crane has inherited an earldom. Hes also inherited his familys enemies. He needs magical assistance, fast. He doesn't expect it to turn up angry.Magician Stephen Day has good reason to hate Cranes family. Unfortunately, its his job to deal with supernatural threats. Besides, the earl is unlike any aristocrat hes ever met, with the tattoos, the attitude... and the way Crane seems determined to get him into bed. Thats definitely unusual.Soon Stephen is falling hard for the worst possible man, at the worst possible time. But Cranes dangerous appeal isn't the only thing rendering Stephen powerless. Evil pervades the house, a web of plots is closing round Crane, and if Stephen cant find a way through it-theyre both going to die.
