Sarah J Maas on Serpent & Dove

Six months have passed since Celie took her sacred vows and joined the ranks of the Chasseurs as their first huntswoman. With her fiance, Jean Luc, as captain, she is determined to find her foothold in her new role and help protect Belterra. But whispers from her past still haunt her, and a new evil is rising - leaving bodies in its wake, each one decorated with twin puncture wounds in its throat.

Now Celie has a new reason to fear the dark because someone - something - is coming for her. And the closer he gets, the more tempted Celie feels to give in to his dank hungers - and her own. . .

Shelby Mahurin grew up on a small farm in rural Indiana, where sticks became wands and cows became dragons. Her rampant imagination didn't fade with age, so she continues to play make-believe every day-with words now instead of cows. When not writing, Shelby watches the Office and reads voraciously. She still lives near that childhood farm with her very tall husband and semi-feral children.
