X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Join us for a virtual event with bestselli
 ng fantasy author Helen Scheuerer as we delve into her thrilling new novel
  <em>Kiss of the Black Flame</em>.</p>\n<p><em>Some bargains are sealed wi
 th blood. Others with fire. The deadliest are sealed with a kiss...</em></
 p>\n<p><br />Saige Grayson has always believed stories could heal&mdash\;e
 ven when her own body refuses to. As the most promising bookbinder in the 
 capital\, she&rsquo\;s learned to work through chronic pain and crushing d
 ebt\, restoring other people&rsquo\;s treasures while trying not to fall a
 part herself. But when the man she owes decides her rare talent is worth m
 ore than her payments\, Saige is traded to the Azkari&mdash\;an immortal r
 ace forged by the gods for war&mdash\;and imprisoned in their ancient stro
 nghold.</p>\n<p><br />Her only chance of survival lies with Archer\, a fal
 len Azkari general imprisoned beside her&mdash\;cursed\, dangerous\, and i
 mpossible to ignore. He offers her a way out\, and in return\, Saige must 
 help him retrieve and restore an ancient book. But the book is made of liv
 ing magic\, powerful enough to stop a great evil&mdash\;or unleash it. And
  as Saige works with Archer\, the tome begins to awaken something dark and
  dangerous&mdash\;both in the realm and within her.</p>\n<p><br />As their
  enemies close in and buried memories resurface\, Saige and Archer must de
 cide what they&rsquo\;re willing to sacrifice: their freedom\, their fragi
 le trust&hellip\;or the spark that could ignite the world.</p>\n<p>About t
