Après avoir goûté à la liberté, mon feu intérieur semble vouloir s'en donner à c¿ur joie, et cela inclut de me brûler pendant que je brûle les méchants.Si je veux maîtriser le dangereux pouvoir qui est en moi, je dois comprendre d'où il vient, et d'où je viens.

Une voleuse pyromane impertinente, trois monstres sexy à souhait et une conspiration paranormale aux proportions épiques.C'était un travail ordinaire. Une autre nuit, un autre salaud collectionneur de surnaturel. Je libère quelques pauvres petites bêtes de leurs cages, j'empoche quelques babioles pour payer mes factures, et je brûle l'endroit en partant. Vous pouvez m'appeler le Robin des Bois de l'émancipation des monstres.Je n'avais pas prévu que trois monstres virils me suivraient à la maison comme des chiots perdus. Des chiots perdus étonnamment sexy, mais tout de même. Maintenant, j'ai un incube séduisant et effronté, un démon gentiment enthousiaste et un ange sinistrement stoïque qui campent dans ma cuisine. Ils sont déterminés à me remercier pour mon aide et ne quitteront pas mon appartement tant qu'ils ne seront pas convaincus que nous sommes quittes.Pour être franche, ils n'ont pas d'autre endroit où aller. Une bande de chasseurs clandestins a capturé leur patron, et la piste est gelée. Je donnerai un coup de main si cela signifie que je peux les faire partir... et quand il semble que nous soyons confrontés aux mêmes crapules qui ont assassiné la personne que j'aimais le plus, vous feriez mieux de croire que je suis tout à fait d'accord.Traquer les méchants.Récupérer le patron.Ne pas se faire tuer en chemin.Oh, et peut-être sortir avec un ou deux beaux gosses monstrueux.C'est du gâteau.Je vais vraiment le regretter.* La Voleuse d'ombres est le premier tome d'une nouvelle série d'urban fantasy de l'auteure à succès Eva Chase. Si vous aimez les héroïnes qui ont du cran, les monstres qui ont leur propre sens moral et les histoires d'amour torrides où les hommes savent partager, plongez dans cette série dès maintenant ! *

Qu'y a-t-il de mieux que trois monstres sexy ? Pourquoi pas quatre...En aidant le trio de monstres sexy comme pas possible qui m'ont suivie chez moi, j'ai perdu mon appartement, mon sens de la sécurité et plus de sang qu'il n'en fallait. D'une certaine manière, mes nouveaux amants me donnent l'impression d'avoir obtenu la meilleure part du marché.Malheureusement, leur patron fraîchement sauvé n'est pas très enthousiaste à l'égard des humains. J'ai l'impression qu'il préférerait m'écarteler plutôt que de m'accorder le temps d'une journée. Dommage pour lui, mes compétences de mortelle sont trop utiles pour qu'il s'en débarrasse. Après tout, il nous reste une conspiration de psychopathes tortionnaires de monstres à détruire.Mais entre les tentatives de séduction du chef autoritaire et la traque de nos ennemis, la chose la plus troublante que j'ai rencontrée pourrait bien être ce qui se cache sous ma peau. Je possède des pouvoirs qu'aucun humain n'est censé exercer.Qu'est-ce que cela fait de moi ? Je n'en ai aucune idée, mais trouver comment exploiter mon côté surnaturel pourrait être ma seule chance de venger la femme qui m'a élevée et tant d'autres qui ont été assassinés depuis. Et la seule chose dont je suis sûre ? Cet escroc ne recule pas.
