<b>&ldquo;All of history is open to you now. You need only to choose which era you want to claim as your own.&rdquo;</b><br /><br />I&rsquo;ve got enough magic going on in my life. It&rsquo;s tough to integrate with society when you can summon ice in the heat of summer. But now I&rsquo;m charging ahead toward a normal life: I&rsquo;m going to college, and then I&rsquo;ll work at my father&rsquo;s corporation. My ice magic can take a back seat for a while.<br /><br />Unfortunately, fate had other plans when it led me to a fairy, a gorge&mdash;and a demonic relic rumored to harbor the power over time itself. Great.<br /><br />Using this thing might go against my beliefs, but I have to protect it, if nothing else. And maybe along the way I&rsquo;ll get brave enough to admit my feelings for Hans, my most trusted mentor. No problem that he&rsquo;s a Teuton priest, my father&rsquo;s accountant, and utterly uninterested in romance. What could go wrong?<br /><br /><i>*If you like dark paranormal fantasies with secret societies, forbidden love, time travel, and tough choices, this is for you.
