A talented young artist whose dreams have been crushed...A crystal warrior who'd rather die than be condemned again....Jade's so desperate to provide for her chronically ill sister that she decides to sell herself. Her first "client" locks her in a motel room with Malach, the Crystal Warrior destined to be her life-mate. Malach is a complex, compelling man, and he soon captures Jade's heart. But Malach has a dark secret: He plans to kill himself rather than risk being imprisoned in his cursed crystal a third time. And saving him could be a losing battle... because he's still in love with the woman who refused to bond with him decades ago. Maree Anderson writes paranormal romance, fantasy, and young adult books. She lives in beautiful New Zealand, home of hobbits, elves, and kiwis - both the fruit and the two-legged flightless variety. She's a bookworm, a chocoholic, a coffee-lover, and she has an extremely amusing cat named "Twink".Maree's first novel for young adults, the multi-award-winning Freaks of Greenfield High, was optioned for TV, and currently has over 2 million reads on Wattpad. Alas, Freaks didn't make it to the small screen, but it sure was a fun ride while it lasted.
