Duty and honor demand the ultimate sacrifice. Humanotica, Book 2 Everyone has their poison. For Haevyn Briena, it's her inability to resist a dare. This time it's a challenge from her friend and lover, Grisha, to sneak into the popular, illegal cage fights that always end in all-male orgies. Eagerly she snaps up the gauntlet, unaware that she will end the night forever changed. When expatriate humanotic warrior Entreus locks eyes with Haevyn at the sex-fueled event, he is instantly captivated. Despite a duty that binds him to an exiled malevolent sorcerer, he seeks her out in a shattering, illuminating encounter. Grisha's plan is in motion--to bring both his warrior lovers together and heal their scarred souls with a combined passion that he alone cannot provide. But Haevyn's tormented past refuses to die. And Entreus will not rest until the Core that ruined his life is destroyed. Amid ever-tangling emotions and a brutal plot to take over the city, the three lovers walk a tightrope that could be cut at any moment. Fighting for justice, bound by duty...and a love that could alter the foundations of their world. Warning: Watch out for oiled-up, naked trinespined warriors battling for top position, feisty tracer females that fit oh-so-snugly in between, and sexy nights that segue into complex relationships. Beware of tebitcheckers wielding those nasty little contulators at illegal, testosterone-drenched cage confrontations.
