A Balance of Magic, Book 1
by
Rakurai hunts demons. He doesn't consort with gods. Until he meets Tenzen.
Tenzen cares for souls. He despises the callous, self-absorbed Yuvine. Until he meets Rakurai.
A rescue and a sacrifice make a death god and a hunter fall in love, but a life of bliss is a long way off. Someone is disturbing the balance of magic and threatening two worlds. And while desire draws Rakurai and Tenzen together, duty, assassins, and clan politics keep them apart.
Who will Tenzen and Rakurai save in the end? Two worlds or each other?

Two worlds, separated by a veil and linked by magic. Threatened by the very people sworn to guard them.
Carrying both celestial and earthbound magic, the Yuvine are the only ones who can pass the veil at will. Solitary and secretive, they guard the worlds and balance the magic ... until greed and lust for power upset that balance with disastrous consequences for both the human realm and the Otherworld.
The reason the two worlds are dying is more terrible than they could have imagined. Those who are drawn into the fight to save the worlds—a death good, three Yuvine, and a group of human witches—find themselves thwarted at every turn. Until the only choice left is whether to save two worlds or each other….
