The Devil You Know
Years of training have turned Bastian into a sublimely sexual weapon, capable of pulling magic to enthrall. His mission is to captivate the overlord, then kill him, when years of violent revolts had failed. Vashi wasn’t meant for Bastian’s snares, but passion catches him up in them.
Sex to Bastian is means to an end and a method of control. But Vashi shows him pleasure in sex, and that the magic Bastian can use is stronger when the two of them are as one.
Unfortunately, Bastian’s mission is a cruel and harsh one. One that demands complete and total submission, and Bastian has been purchased, body and soul. If he fails, Bastian’s people are at risk of losing their lives as much as their freedom. If he succeeds, he may lose Vashi. As ever, the devil is in the details.

About the author
Angela Fiddler

Barbara didn’t learn that she had lived in three out of the four Northern Alberta towns that had a known or suspected Wendigo attack until well after she’d moved south to Lethbridge.

This book was a jumbled mess of awfulness. Seems these two factions have been struggling for power in a region foever. It's hard to tell why and who is on what side. This was a poor attempt at sci-fi or paranormal. Don't even pick this waste of time up.

2.5 stars at best. Too confusing, the idea not explained, the characters not described, the ending rushed, etc...
