Beneath the Canyons - Kyra Halland - Bog

The gunslinger. The rancher's daughter. They share the same dangerous secret - magic. Silas Vendine, mage and bounty hunter, follows a trail of strange, dark magic to the remote Wildings town of Bitterbush Springs. There, he lands in the middle of a violent feud - and discovers that a local rancher's daughter is hiding a deadly secret. Lainie Banfrey has been taught all her life that wizards are unnatural creatures with no heart and no soul. If anyone finds out she has magical powers, she could end up on the wrong end of a hanging rope. But when a gunslinger named Silas Vendine arrives in town, searching for the man who has brought Bitterbush Springs to the brink of open warfare, his power calls to hers, and she agrees to help him. While hiding their magic from the mage-hating townsfolk - and falling for each other, in defiance of the strict laws of the Mage Council - Silas and Lainie must stop the renegade mage who is tearing the town apart, before the dark power he has discovered destroys everyone who lives in the Wildings.
