    Sacrifice the Wicked (eBook, ePUB)
    "A brilliant new voice in paranormal romance.” —New York Times bestselling author Christina DoddKarina Cooper's Dark Mission novels are red hot—and, with Sacrifice the Wicked, she returns readers to the darkly thrilling dystopian realm of witches and witch hunters she introduced in her stunning debut, Blood of the Wicked. This time, it's a battle of the sexes, as reluctant allies become passionate lovers in a world on the brink of destruction. Agent Simon, a witch, finds himself fighting to save the life of his stunning enemy, Director Parker Adams, while, against his better judgment, falling in love with her. Cooper has boldly staked her claim to paranormal romance greatness—with her Dark Mission books as well as her brilliantly imaginative Victorian steampunk series, The St. Croix Chronicles—placing herself in the same exalted ranks as paranormal and urban fantasy superstars J.R. Ward, Kresley Cole, and Karen Marie Moning.
