Brigitte Knightley Knihy

Najlepšie ľúbostné príbehy sa začínajú nenávisťou Originálna a neuveriteľne zábavná prvá časť romantickej duológie o nepriateľoch, z ktorých sa stanú milenci, zasadená do jedinečného fantasy sveta. Osric Mordaunt, člen rádu Fyrenov a nájomný vrah naliehavo potrebuje liečenie. Iróniou osudu jedinou osobou, ktorá mu môže pomôcť, je Aurienne Fairhrimová, rešpektovaná vedkyňa, stelesnenie morálky a – členka nepriateľského rádu. Aurienne zúfalo potrebuje peniaze na financovanie výskumu kiahní, ktoré zasiahli ich krajinu a trpia nimi stovky nevinných detí. Keď ju Osric podplatí, súhlasí, že mu pomôže, napriek tomu, že nenávidí všetko, čo predstavuje. Vynútená spolupráca geniálnej vedkyne a profesionálneho zabijaka privedie Aurienne k starým mystickým praktikám, ktoré nemajú s vedou nič spoločné. Osric a Aurienne spolu vyšetrujú opätovný výskyt tajomnej smrtiacej nákazy. Horlivo pri tom popierajú nákazu vzájomnej príťažlivosti, čo len zosilňuje iskrivé napätie, ktoré medzi nimi vládne od prvej chvíle.

This stunning hardcover features a cover with foil, beautifully designed endpapers, and a black-and-white interior map! Loyalties are tested in this slow burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy following an assassin and a healer forced to work together to cure a fatal disease, all while resisting the urge to kill each other—or, worse, fall in love. When Osric Mordaunt, member of the Fyren Order of assassins, falls ill, he realizes he needs the expertise of a very specific healer. As fate would have it, that healer belongs to an enemy faction, the Haelan Order. Aurienne Fairhrim and her fellow Haelan are inundated by sick children suffering from an outbreak of a long-forgotten Pox. Unable to get the funding needed to launch an immunization program, the Haelan Order is desperate for money – so desperate that when Osric breaks into their headquarters to bribe Aurienne to heal him, she is forced to accept. As Osric and Aurienne work together to solve not only his illness but the mysterious reoccurrence of the Pox, they find themselves ardently denying their attraction which only fuels the tension between them.
