It was going to be her last job- and the last time she’d have contact with her family….

Audrey Callahan has worked hard to escape her family’s history of running cons in the Edge. Despite her misgivings, however, she is unable to refuse her father’s request for one last con. Unfortunately, it goes horribly awry and now she’s caught between two factions, the Mirror and the Hand. She’s forced to align herself with Kaldar Mar, a con man working for the Mirror. Will Kaldar and Audrey succeed in stopping the Hand?

FATE’S EDGE is the third book in the Edge series. While it can be read as a stand alone tale, the subplot involving George and Jack is best appreciated in the context of the series as a whole. Readers familiar with the series will already know how the Edge, the Broken, and the Weird work, but new readers will have missed the world building that has occurred over the course of the series.

The ongoing battle between the Hand and the Mirror escalates in the prior book, BAYOU MOON, where Kaldar’s desire for vengeance emerges. Kaldar isn’t going to let anyone get in his way, even as he finds himself falling for Audrey. Audrey has her own issues to contend with. She’s been repeatedly burned by the con men in her family, most especially her brother, and she’s unwilling to trust Kaldar as a result.

However, it is not the romance between Kaldar and Audrey that makes FATE’S EDGE so appealing. Quite honestly, they are my least favorite couple of the series. Instead, it is the prominent role Jack and George play that make FATE’S EDGE truly work as they steal the show. Their adjustment to their new lives has not been an easy one but the spirit with which they attack their problems is enjoyable to see. I only hope we will continue to see more and more of them in future books!

My name is Debbie and I love to read just about anything. My favorite books, however, are generally paranormal romances. I am a social worker with the school system in Florida so I get a lot of time off in the summer to read (except when I'm sitting in the dark with no ac thanks to a hurricane)! I'm happily married and have 2 doggie children. I also enjoying working out, "American Idol", and cheering on the Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team.
