Forged in Fire — Tricia Owens

As the most hated magickal being in Las Vegas, Anne is on edge and nervous about what's on the horizon. Sure, she has her boyfriend Vale by her side along with her quirky friends, but the magickal community is large, and the target on her back is even larger. When she and her friends find a dead shapeshifter in the streets who's carrying a piece of paper with her name on it, she just knows things are about to get hairy...and she's not wrong. A gut-wrenching encounter with an exotic animals breeder and a brush with ancient beings from North Africa are only the beginning, for Vagasso and the Oddsmakers are making their biggest move yet: opening the Infernus Rift to allow Hell to take over the Earth. Only Anne and her friends can stop it from happening. But will a dragon be enough? Or have they finally met their match?
