This book is really interesting so far! I am loving the historical/fantasy/powers mix. I am on a blog tour for this book, so watch for that soon!
Book Quotes: These Vicious Masks
“My hand clutched the cold railing, my feet tested every stair, and my breath refused to come as I climbed up and up through the black void. Like a beacon, the strange, dim second-floor landing called to me.”

Lol, I totally read ‘beacon’ as ‘bacon’ on the first read through… I’m glad you’re enjoying this one, I think a lot of people are anticipating the release. I liked the extract so I think I’ll add it to my summer wish-list!
I hope that you enjoy it!
Me too!

This is one I have very close to the top of my TBR! I’m dying to read it and your teaser just made me more likely.
Great teaser. And that blurb surprised me. I thought this was a historical romance. Didn’t expect the fantasy/mystery aspect. Most intriguing:)

Anything with masks gets my attention, especially with Mardi Gras season right around the corner.
