Про цю електронну книгу
This urban fantasy with a strong, shape-shifting female lead is "a fast-paced, sexy romp with characters as original as its intriguing premise" (Diana Gabaldon, New York Times–bestselling author of Outlander).
Snagging a marriage proposal for her client while on an all-expenses-paid vacation should be a simple job for Ciel Halligan, aura adaptor extraordinaire. A kind of human chameleon, she's able to take on her clients' appearances and slip seamlessly into their lives, solving any sticky problems they don't want to deal with themselves. No fuss, no muss. Big paycheck.
This particular assignment is pretty enjoyable . . . that is, until Ciel's island resort bungalow is blown to smithereens and her client's about-to-be-fiancé is snatched by modern-day Vikings.
Going from romance to rescue requires some serious gear-shifting, as well as a little backup. Her best friend, Billy, and Mark, the CIA agent she's been crushing on for years—both skilled adaptors—step in to help, but their priority is, annoyingly, keeping her safe. Before long, Ciel is dedicating more energy to escaping their watchful eyes than she is to saving her client's intended.
Suddenly, facing down a horde of Vikings feels like the least of her problems.
"Fresh, fun, and sexy." —Vicki Pettersson, New York Times–bestselling author of The Signs of the Zodiac series
"Bright, fizzy, sexy and amusing—the perfect antidote to an attack of post-summer blues." — Kirkus Reviews
"Fans of both hard and soft fantasy and crime drama will love [the] protagonist's spunky, irreverent attitude." — Library Journal, starred review
