She was stolen away on her wedding day.
He will stop at nothing to get her back.
Even if it means descending into the criminal underworld . . .
The moment that Tamas saw Isako, he knew that she was the woman he was meant for. He didn't care that she was the daughter of one of the most powerful syndicate leaders in the city. All that mattered was winning her hand and her heart. Now on the day he has finally become her husband, he is thrilled to lead Isako to the happily ever after he has prepared for her. Except, his bride has vanished.
Isako finally has the chance to leave behind her family's violent legacy. She never expected a foreign bard to pursue her so ardently and somehow win her father's blessing, but she is excited to start an honest life with him. But the day that was supposed to usher in her freedom turns sour when one of her father's enemies steals her away.
With only a handful of clues to guide him, Tamas plunges into the criminal underworld to find his wife. He fears nothing except losing her forever and will face every obstacle head-on. But the true danger lies in the temptation to look back . . .
A Quest for True Love, a retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice, is a standalone no-spice novella, complete with tropes like he falls first, wound tending, and nightmare comfort. It is part of the Lives of Legend series, a collection of eight retellings of Greek myths where the tragedies become happily ever afters. Each book is written by a different author so it can be enjoyed in any order. The proceeds from this series are donated to the Human Coalition to provide for mothers facing crisis pregnancies.
