Mortal: Braid of Souls Book One
What if a 37-year-old art historian discovered she was the reincarnated center of a centuries-old feud between a billionaire witch desperate to bind her soul, and a deadly vampire assassin who is her fated mate?
The Reincarnated Scholar. The Desperate Guardian. The Enslaved Shadow.
And a love triangle with centuries of baggage.
Stella Dea knows the value of old things. As an art historian at a Parisian auction house, she curates the past. But she never expected the past to come looking for her.
It starts with a kiss in a supermarket aisle - a kiss that tastes like cinnamon and magic, delivered by Nicolas della Fenice, a billionaire surgeon with a secret: he is a witch. Nicolas claims Stella is his reincarnated wife from the 16th century, and he will break every magical law to ensure death never steals her from him again.
But Nicolas isn't the only one hunting her. Enter Lucas: a towering deadly vampire assassin shrouded in shadows and frankincense. He is also the man Nicolas blames for Stella's centuries-old death - and the creature whose blood sings to Stella as her true, fated mate. Caught between a witch's desperate devotion and a vampire's dark, enslaved heart, Stella must navigate a lethal world of ancient clans and immortal jealousies before history repeats itself.
