About this listen
A realm under siege. A mage caught between worlds. A bond that defies allegiance.
As demon hordes lay waste to human lands, Aric Solarian finds himself thrust into the heart of a war he once sought to prevent. The fall of Drindal marks only the beginning of a devastating assault that threatens to bring the human realm to its knees.
Caught between his duty to protect humanity and his growing connection to the enigmatic demon prince Malekith, Aric must navigate a treacherous path. Their forbidden bond deepens even as the lines of battle are drawn, challenging everything Aric once believed about his enemies.
But as a mysterious magical anomaly threatens both realms, Aric discovers that the key to salvation may lie in the very power he fears. Forced to undergo brutal trials that will test his loyalty and push him to his limits, Aric must decide how far he's willing to go to uncover the truth.
With time running out and the fate of two worlds hanging in the balance, can Aric master his newfound abilities and find a way to bridge the divide between human and demon? Or will his dangerous obsession with forbidden magic be the undoing of everything he's fought to protect?
Trial by Fire is the first book in a darkly seductive M/M fantasy romance brimming with magical warfare, moral ambiguity, and scorching chemistry between a defiant mage and his demon prince captor. Vera Winters spins a captivating tale of power, betrayal and desire that will keep you spellbound until the last page.

This is what Brad gets for finally "sinking his teeth into a book," like his nerdy brother is always hounding him to. He definitely wasn't expecting the book to sink its teeth into him. With the newfound knowledge that he can get pregnant as an omega, Brad's urgency to get back to his world of touchdowns and keg stands is intensifying by the minute. Unfortunately, so is his attraction to Raul, the possessive alpha shifter who broods mysteriously and smells like sandalwood and something uniquely masculine.
