BLURB:
He hasn’t been Aleksandr Sergeyevich Volonov, legendary
monster-hunting assassin for ten years. Now, he is only Sasha, charming
deckhand on a merchant airship so recently destroyed by pirates.
All he wants is to find another job and keep moving. But
that simple plan is thwarted when his sister sends an assassin to murder him.
His only choice is to return to Saint Petersburg and renounce his claim to his
family’s title.
Trapped by his late father’s machinations, Sasha finds
himself surrounded by death threats, engaged to a brutal villainess, shadowed
by his cheeky assassin, and forced to lead the organization bent on eliminating
all supernatural creatures from the Russian Empire.
As he struggles to keep hold on the man he is, Sasha must
face who he used to be in this modern steampunk fantasy adventure full of
folklore, banter, and artifice.

Excerpt One:
I didn’t bother to light the lamp as I entered the small
room. I just stretched out on the bed, grateful the whiskey had relaxed me
enough for sleep. Letting out a long sigh, I closed my eyes and waited for dreams
to take me. After a few even breaths, my ears pricked as a floorboard creaked
ever so softly to my left. I forced myself to continue breathing slowly, though
my instinct was to freeze. The strike came from above, and I was barely able to
avoid it by rolling to the side. Fabric tore as a knife sank deep into the
blankets beneath me. My hand wrapped around a slender wrist in the dark while
my attacker tried to reclaim the weapon.
In a fluid motion, the wrist in my grasp twisted and thin fingers
clenched my wrist. I jerked my assailant’s arm and pulled her off-balance onto
the free spot I’d just occupied before she got a chance to yank the blade out
with her other hand. Twisting my hips, I wrapped my legs around her neck,
putting her in a choke hold. Her arms flailed at my hips to no avail as I
squeezed my thighs.
“Who sent you?” I asked the assassin in my mother tongue.
She growled in frustration but did not answer.
“Was it the Ubyzniki? My father? Who?”
“Go to Hell,” she spat in Russian.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
D. Lieber has a wanderlust that would make a butterfly envious.
When she isn’t planning her next physical adventure, she’s recklessly jumping
from one fictional world to another. Her love of reading led her to earn a
Bachelor’s in English from Wright State University.
Beyond her skeptic and slightly pessimistic mind, Lieber wants to
believe. She has been many places—from Canada to England, France to Italy,
Germany to Russia—believing that a better world comes from putting a face on
“other.” She is a romantic idealist at heart, always fighting to keep her feet
on the ground and her head in the clouds.
Lieber lives in Wisconsin with her husband (John) and cats (Yin
and Nox).
