THE POINT OF NO RETURN
The dangerous, mysterious world of the Old Races haunts defense lawyer Margrit Knight. Her gorgeous gargoyle lover, Alban, trapped in stone by day and human at night, has abandoned Margrit for her own safety...but no one who has met the Old Races is ever truly safe again.
The desperate bargains Alban has struck to protect Margrit prove futile as she's pulled more deeply into the conflicts between the five ancient people. With threats closing in around her, Alban must give up his well-meant intentions to keep her safe and stand by her side, while Margrit struggles to find a balance in her own life that will allow her to be with Alban while protecting his secrets from her mortal friends.
And even those friends become levers to be used against Margrit as they're drawn into orbit around charming dragonlords, ruthless vampires, and selkies determined to set their own fate. The only way Margrit can protect the people she loves is to negotiate a peace treaty among the rival clans-a decision that means embedding herself as a permanent fixture in the Old Races' complex political structure.
But Margrit's influence and her strident rejection of ancient, embedded Old Races' laws are not entirely welcome. Alban will risk everything he has to defend her, while Margrit herself is forced to make bloody choices that will set an entire faction of furious immortals against her...
